"Following up another topic on the forums, regarding finding people on here you known, I did a local search with filters open. Didn't find anyone I knew but was astounded by the sense of entitlement from some men on their profile. The ratio on here must be 80% men to 20% women so it's never going to be easy, why blow your chances coming over all cocky (bit of Carry on humour there). The profiles in question must make women feel used just reading them, let alone wanting to meet the man. Maybe it's me but I imagine if you come across entitled on your profile how must women feel you would be like in real life? " Nothing new.. its not just males either | |||

"Most men's profiles I've been messaged by have very little written on them. I don't think I've come across an entitled sounding one." Exactly my point. Very little written on a profile, in a crowded environment, is a sense of entitlement. Why would a woman respond to an near empty profile? | |||

My point is with just 20% of the profiles being women, why blow you chances coming across entitled to a meet?" I think entitled is the wrong word for these profiles. | |||

With the male to female ratio on here women can do as they wish, men would still meet them. | |||

"The worst people for acting entitled are couples. I’ve met and know some really lovely couples, I’ve also known some demanding, entitled, arrogant couples. I could write stories about their behaviour and attitudes, in person and on fab. Let’s go easy on guys for a while shall we? " Does seem to be a lot of man bashing going on lately.

"May I ask what kinds of entitlements you're talking about?" Some men seem to think just joining Fab will guarantee a meet. Just state the bare minimum on your profile and mark up the notches on the bedpost. Not realistic.....a sense of entitlement. | |||

"Is entitlement the new “in” fab word? Has it replaced preference? " Not for me. Preference on fab in my personal opinion, means you choose the type of person you want to meet. Entitlement to me means that you believe other people's preferences don't apply to you and that you're entitled to be treated with a certain respect that you don't apply to others. | |||

"It could be argued that everyone is entitled to put what they want in their bios but sometimes perceived forum popularity means some think they are entitled to say what they want without repercussion. However as has already been said there is a tendency to overlook certain views or opinions based on who is expressing them.

The problem is since the beginning of time men have had the urge to fuck, the younger a man is the greater the urge. Men will forgive or accept anything from a woman, as long as he can fuck her, its a natural instinct. The problems start after the deed is done . | |||

I'd say that's more naivety or stupidity, akin to walking into a bar and just standing there expecting women to throw themselves at their feet...I'm pretty sure that the reality of the situation will soon dawn on them. | |||

"But are some getting or had meets? If someone new comes onto Fab they may look at profiles of the same gender to see what might 'work'. If they see an 'entitled' style profile that seems to 'work' - i.e. Has a reasonable amount of veris - then they may copy the 'style'. And that can end up proliferating. It will work for some and not others. Even when someone asks for profile advice on the forum they are only getting what people on the forum would like to see on a profile. There are thousands of people on Fab and, I would guess, most are just getting on with it. No matter what a profile is like if they are getting meets then something is working for them. There are also other factors like accomodating, travelling, age range, first messages and sexuality. A profile is just a single piece in the jigsaw puzzle of Fab." Just be yourself as that will be who the other person will meet. | |||

I am a bit disappointed with my fellow man, I think the sense of entitlement hides arrogance and stupidity, traits women never find appealing. | |||

" We all like attention to some degree otherwise we wouldn't be on fab. I like being noticed and I like sex but I don't need either. The problem is that some need both constantly and are happy to do whatever is required to achieve that. I know of people who can't get through their day without public acknowledgement on fab and I don't just mean women. A very well known profile has asked why I don't acknowledge him on the forums and when I didn't reply he got someone else to ask me the same question. | |||

Hear so many horror stories of guys saying the most awful things because of a polite no thanks. It isn’t just guys either I once politely declined a lady and then received a ton of messages about how shallow I was - so the way they message wasn’t my issue as such but their reaction to the rejection. | |||
