"In short... Yes. Some people think they are superior for having no 'baggage' I look at it totally different and assume no one could put up with them thus far. "Ha ha! It’s so frustrating | |||

"Disclaimer I know this is NOT a dating site however there’s lots of men on here and I feel it’s a good place to ask my dating app related question. For those on dating apps that are genuinely single why do some men feel the need to point out the fact that they’ve Never been married No kids and don’t have baggage nearly in shouty capitals? Yes I’ve been married yes I’ve a child but I feel thats something that comes up in conversation as ye get to know each other. You don’t get to a certain age in life without gaining some “baggage” and for me it’s not a deal breaker if someone has kids or were married I know it maybe for some and is that why they proclaim it so loudly?" It's a filter like any other Everyone entitled to their preferences I have never been married, don't have kids and would prefer to date someone the same so it's not just a male thing  | |||

"Everyone has baggage, whether previously married or have kids or whatever it is. Plane load here lol I don't understand posting it on a profile though, just doesn't make sense. Those things shouldn't be a deal breaker, person should come first but each to their own" But do you feel the need to shout it from the rooftops on your dating profiles? | |||

If they feel strongly about it then why not? It helps you avoid a potential mismatch. See the positive in it  | |||

"As others have said I suppose it's not much different to detailing what you're looking for in a person or even revealing any details about yourself; age, personality etc. It just gives the other person the best and fullest picture of you. I can understand what you mean about getting to know someone, OP, though. However, I think that's more about discovering their favourite flavour of ice cream after a few dates and not how many children they may have "Bet yours is neapolitan  | |||

"To be honest I'd rather know sooner than later if she has kids or a difficult ex. I have no interest in dating anyone with kids as I just don't want to be involved with them. And I have no time or patience to be dealing with the likes of a crazy ex. It may sound harsh but feck it, it's the truth." Well said | |||

I fully respect everyone has their own preferences and yes it’s better I find out they don’t want that and can be used as a filter, Im upfront in conversation that I’ve a child cause I know it’s not for everyone but I don’t feel the need to scream it on my profile.

For me I'd rather know the situation before I invest time in it because I will walk away if it turns out it's not for me. So rather than waste everyone's time, I'd prefer to know from the get go. | |||

On a swingers site noone needs to know anything about your home life On a dating site they probably do" Most definitely, being a parent is life-altering, anyone who gets involved in a committed long-term relationship with a parent of minor children is going to have to include the children in their life in some way. People with children need to stop taking it as some kind of personal slight if this is not what a potential partner wants. | |||

As a dad with two kids you would be surprised how many ladies are not keen after finding out you have parental responsibility. So I think that’s what some guys highlight it | |||

Oh this is a good one this is exactly what happens with me on them except for the marriage part someone takes an interest in me we start talking getting on then the question of do I have kids come up I reply yes she hasn't ran for the hills yet then I tell her how many 4 for me all from the same mother that's when they bolt judging me based on that alone hence why I think I'm in the right place here I think lol I mean I'm still on a dating app but starting lean more towards this simply because of my circumstances who knows things might change all I will say just because you have kids doesn't mean life ends yeah I love my kids and do anything for them as would any other parent but we are allowed to have a social life so I completely understand where your coming from | |||
