"It's not just men but also couples and single women still wink and invite us to bi parties etc. We are both very straight and Rosie has no interest in women at all which is clear in our profile" Exactly, we get same on our couple profile and on this one I've had couples message me, despite me not meeting them. | |||

"Well a lot of men think with their penises... Penises cant read, soooo... " The third eye is for peeing and perversions, not reading and thinking. | |||

"If people read my profile there is a reason why my profile is set for anyone that can message me sometimes it's just common sense for people to actually read a profile instead of just thinking what you are" But it saves so much effort. You are only going to have gay and bi men messaging, you are not going to get genuine straight men messaging to set you up with a female, very unlikely on here. Block single males and problem solved. I have blocked TV from messaging me as I know many would from past experience, so rather than moan on a thread if they had I have set my filters | |||

"To be fair to the men.. it is hard to wank and read at the same time." Surely you are not implying men can't multitask? | |||

"If people read my profile there is a reason why my profile is set for anyone that can message me sometimes it's just common sense for people to actually read a profile instead of just thinking what you are" OK, so I read your profile and nowhere does it say you don't want men to contact you (when they are horny) or you don't want to be sent dick pics... you simply say you are straight ( which btw on fab, that doesn't really mean much) - plenty of "straight " men on here that "swing both or multiple ways ". The idea that all people will be respectful, decent, kind, ( read your profile or read your profile and not message you to try to get a quick shag) is simply not realistic...many human beings will simply not show you that level of respect, or treat you with the same decency you would them (more so on a sex site where they are anonymous), and no matter what you do, you won't be able to change that. So here are the only two options... you block all men from messaging you (which is what I have done) or you allow everyone to message you and also accept that there will be some rude/undececent/unsolicited messages (which you can block and ignore). And please don't misunderstand my comment, I'm not saying this to be pretentious or passive aggressive, as I honestly don't know if you opened the thread because you are genuinely sick of those messages or you are more amused by them than anything. Either way, all the best to you! | |||

" People not read profiles?" No. | |||
Reply privately | Reply in forum | Reply +quote |
"Yep. Happens all the time. Got a message this morning asking to meet for a quick fuck How do they expect me to believe I'll actually be satisfied by them when they can't even be bothered to read my profile. Cba to read that then why would you listen to to what I like, need, want. Or there's those who read it then decide to ignore it, because clearly THEY are the exception. " You know you have dodged a bullet when they get argumentative or insulting if you tell them to read profiles first, it reveals arrogance in those people. Some of my best past meets on last profile were by coincidence with people who fully read my profile. Might just be my experience but I view it as a good indicator | |||

"What I personally find irritating is when people read my profile far enough to read my required message title, but not far enough to read that I delete people without profile pictures outright! You’d think reading the full thing would be in everyone’s best interest " I don't know, I just look at pretty pictures | |||

"I just delete messages from those who clearly haven't read my profile. No reply or maybe "you haven't read my profile". Few have a come back for that. " I do something similar. I frequently respond with "You clearly got distracted by the photos and didn't bother to read the text." Or "Ever considered reading profiles before messaging?" if it's graphic or weird. If it makes no sense I send "Eh?" I have been known to get apologies | |||

"Nah, it'll never catch on... Until fab introduces the option for profile owners to set multiple choice questions that must be answered by anyone, before they are able to send a message. " This would be good, and if they dont meet the criteria, for the type of person you're looking for, they cant message it is frustrating when people dont read your profile bio. | |||

Don't let others affect you. If something isn't right for you just move on. It's only the Interweb they are not sitting next to you annoying you with there ways. The real point is some take it way to serious like fab is there whole life and miss the point of it should be about having fun and the good times they desire. Delete block move on do what ever but don't let it bother you in anyway as it will affect your fun and you will become one of the moaners instead of one of the ones laughing and having fun on here | |||
