...all those lovely respectful guys! All to often there are threads beating on "most men" being this that and the other so how about a little show of appreciation for those chaps that rise above and stand out as just a little bit lovely.

Give them a shout here and brighten up their day.

Big love to all you beautiful people that brighten up this corner of the Internet

I must say i find 99% of guys on here respectful and charming. I seldom get nasty messages from them and it is easy to ignore the ones who are unkind. It is the single guys that keep me on fab so i would be lost without them.

Agree Op, plenty of threads slagging guys off on here, in some cases deserved, but the majority who contact me are polite and can take no for an answer.

Without the Men on here, this site would die.

So to the 99%

It can be a bit damning with faint praise unfortunately.

But a lot of guys are truly fantastic people. I do mean that. I just think... Being fantastic is its own reward.

There and to the left a bit

Nice one OP and whilst I'm sure decent guys don't *need* to be shown appreciation, it's always nice to see some collective and general positivity about any group of people, without having to single anyone out specifically, which usually ends up as a smoke blowing exercise anyway.

There are lots of decent people on here, men, women, couples, TV/TSs and you're right, much is made of the men that don't "get" the site but nice to see some appreciation for those that do - whether they need it or not.

I disagree. The men on here, as a collective, often get vilified. I think it's nice that the OP wants to share some appreciation of those that don't fall into the FAF Brigade.

I very much doubt that a similar comment would have been made were the thread to have been about women.

Perhaps the rare men you seek are hiding in plain sight. I don’t know you or your outlook, since your profile is hidden, so perhaps this won’t apply to you - but quite a few females on FAB seem far more interested in torso/Ab appreciation, than they do the intellect, sincerity and stability of a man, despite what the narrative on their profiles might suggest. Some of the guys I’ve spoken to on here - whilst not “attractive” in the generally accepted sense of the word - are absolutely amazing blokes who are engaging, interesting, dependable and solid. But it seens they rarely get a chance to impress that upon a female, because of the above.

"Kind of seems like virtue signalling to me, to be honest. Except kind of the bare minimum.

It's one of those, you need a tough skin on here things

That’s you’re Prerogative to think so, but it isn’t Virtue signalling

"Look at me I have manners" is what I'm reading.

Ok...?"

As I've agreed in a separate thread on the subject there is always a certain amount of attention seeking whenever a person posts a thread i mean why else draw attention to yourself right? But given that there are tons of appreciation threads on here which don't get criticism for the most part and there are a lot of single guys being decent yet getting swept up in what i see as a reasonable amount of man bashing i thought it would be nice to give such folk a thumbs up.

You don't have to like it, I've not disagreed with you regarding the hey look at me aspect, but let's not detract from the good eggs here.

"Not sure OP why there is a need to tell people about being a nice guy. Surely actions speak louder than words.

As I used to tell the pupils in creative writing:

"Show me- don't tell me...""

There is no "need" at all but if we only ever did the things we needed to do then this would be a colourless world, so if it costs nothing and makes someone smile...great. Oh and saying good on you chap, taking that time out and sparing a thought is action.

I think so, i get what you're saying though actions are far more powerful than words when it comes to showing a person's true nature but actions as such are hard to perform here so you use the tools at your disposal.

Nobody who considers themselves to be a "typical" Fab dickhead is going to start a thread praising the good guys on here.

So you obviously think of yourself as a nice chap, so it's a self promoting thread - which surely isn't something that good guys do? Seems a bit contradictory to me.

OP don't let a minority of detractors deter you - you post how you like, what you've done is no more attention seeking than any other appreciation thread posted - of which there have been at least two in the past day or so, neither of which attracted negative comment that I'm aware of - if those are ok and this isn't then it suggests double standards to me.

As i say of course there is a certain amount of self promoting, given the nature of the site it helps to stick your head up and be noticed so yes there is some selfishness in there i will not deny but this isn't just for me, i don't think I've said once how great or amazing i am simply that good guys get a pat on the back of which i am just one of many.

Some people are very selective at who or what can have an appreciation thread, some it’s okay to fawn over, others it’s okay to mock, it’s total bullshit, it was a good thread OP, you don’t have to validate it to anyone.

Of course, there's no problem at all if the appreciation thread concerns them "

As for being tarred with the same brush as the idiot males of Fab it doesnt really worry me. If a woman assumes that all men are alike, then logic says she's not going to want to meet anyone.

Besides, if someone is going to make generalisations about me, without at least getting to know me a little bit, I'm not sure that they we are really going to get on that well, so best left alone...

If I'm honest- no.

But purely because the experience of men and women on Fab is very different. I can only offer viewpoints where my own experience is concerned.

The OP is a man, so am I, so I feel I have some insight to offer.

"I certainly do appreciate them, but usually they don't need to be told. They just do it because it's right.

Totally agree but it never hurts to have a counterbalance to some of the moaning that goes on, a slap on the back takes no effort and can put a smile on tbe face.

I think there's satisfaction in going "I'm glad I don't do any of that"."

Genuine curiosity but you did have an appreciation thread dedicated to you, and in which you participated in so whilst you may not of 'done any of that' you certainly advocated it.

So why do you think others shouldn't have appreciation?

I was taught to be thankful when people do nice things for me. Manners. It would have been extraordinarily strange to ignore it.

Here, I don't think having basic manners is worthy of congratulations. I appreciate many men here (and they know it, more often than not), but if I were a man I'd be insulted by being called out for... behaving as people should. I don't need a prize for basic decency: I'm better than that, and so is almost everyone on Fab.

Your mileage obviously varies and that's fine.

Agreed. People don't need to thanked for not being horrible. It should be a given that people behave decently to each other, and not be congratulated for it.

We don't thank people for driving sensibly, not shoplifting or for not pissing on the floor. They're things that should be expected, just like behaving respectfully.

"I certainly do appreciate them, but usually they don't need to be told. They just do it because it's right.

Totally agree but it never hurts to have a counterbalance to some of the moaning that goes on, a slap on the back takes no effort and can put a smile on tbe face.

I think there's satisfaction in going "I'm glad I don't do any of that".

Genuine curiosity but you did have an appreciation thread dedicated to you, and in which you participated in so whilst you may not of 'done any of that' you certainly advocated it.

So why do you think others shouldn't have appreciation?

I was taught to be thankful when people do nice things for me. Manners. It would have been extraordinarily strange to ignore it.

Here, I don't think having basic manners is worthy of congratulations. I appreciate many men here (and they know it, more often than not), but if I were a man I'd be insulted by being called out for... behaving as people should. I don't need a prize for basic decency: I'm better than that, and so is almost everyone on Fab.

Your mileage obviously varies and that's fine.

Interesting. Be nice, be inclusive, be positive, be cheerful. Some people practically spam this on a daily basis and it's OK when done on their terms.

Thank you for clarifying

Don't forget the 'make someone smile!' Also

I'm sorry my aimed at no one generic positive threads offend you

Oh it doesn't. It is the irony that I find hilarious...."

Well I just see it as a nice thread, and why shouldn't people appreciate others.

I'm not saying anything else because I don't want to ruin a nice thread with negative comments

That would of upset you and your friend surely if someone had done the same to your thread?

Empathy and kindness cost nothing, and I will continue being so.

That’s the difference though. You just ‘are’ lovely. No statements required "

Thank you lovely, I try, I am certainly not superficial.

Thank you. I think you are kind of awesome tbf

If I'm not mistaken wasn't this an "aimed at no one positive thread"? Or at least supposed to be?

What's that oft bandied about comment on here - if you don't like or agree with a thread and have nothing positive to say, pass it by

Agreed. People don't need to thanked for not being horrible. It should be a given that people behave decently to each other, and not be congratulated for it.

We don't thank people for driving sensibly, not shoplifting or for not pissing on the floor. They're things that should be expected, just like behaving respectfully.

But in the same way, if someone 'wants' to thank them and show appreciation to them, then why not?

If you don't want to that's fine, not there is no need to moan at others that do.

Do you not thank someone for holding a door open for you, or do anything for your parents on mothers / fathers day?

After all isn't that just showing appreciation for something that they should just do as decent people?

Yes but people shouldnt expect it. And do it in person..."

I don't think most were expecting it here though... and in person seems a bit of an odd.

I can't see my parents, so I shouldn't bother showing my appreciation to them?

My basic point is, just let people do what they want and show appreciation how they want.

Why ruin what I believe was supposed to be a nice thread, by arguing about the merits of the thread?

If you don't want to show appreciation then don't, and leave the thread to those that do. Simple really.
