"Probably because they desire u that much " I find that extremely hard to believe! But, I'll take it as a compliment and thank you for it. I don't see why I'd be that irresistible to men but, apparently completely repellant to women though! Haha | |||

"...I do get an awful lot of messages from men..." • Genuinely?? 
I don't. Despite my filters being open I probably get one or two unsolicited messages per year from men. A simple "no thank you" usually culls the 'conversation'.

" Why do so many men refuse to take "no" for an answer? " That's, unfortunately, the modus operandi of a lot of men. They'll do it to women, or if they're that way inclined, they'll do it to men. I get it all the time, despite my profile very clearly stating I'm not meeting. I don't think there's any single strategy to discourage it. Decline them when it happens. Block them if they persist.  | |||

"In spite of my profile clearly stating I'm straight and that I'm not looking for men, I do get an awful lot of messages from men. Now, this doesn't bother me as such, I'm a nice person, I'll talk to anyone and I've had some very entertaining chats with some guys on here but... I do also get messages from guys who open with duck pics, or worse yet... pics of their hairy arseholes! ….." Yeh, I’d still prefer the drakes myself too.

"I usually ask them why they think I would be interested until they call me a cunt and block me themselves. I couldn't tell you why people refuse to accept a no I'm afraid OP. Simply confirm that its a common problem. There are people and events that make leaving the message filters off worthwhile. But my block list is fucking huge "Sorry to be a creepy guy but... I bet your inbox is overflowing with guys who don't want to take no for an answer! My block list grows faster than my waistline on holiday! | |||

"If you're engaging with their effort to entice you, they're probably working up a froth over that " I just like talking to people! Never in a million years did I think that would have men frothing! Specially when it normally sent women running for the hills! | |||

"It's easy to be a pest on here, you're largely anonymous. unfortunately they make themselves stand out in the wrong way though. I had a message the other day, it was really crude so I deleted it. He then sent another ten mins later asking where abouts I was and If I was up for fun. Blocked, some don't seem to know how to take a hint. If you genuinely don't want to chat to men op, use your filters and block all men from being able to contact you. Just to say we've had couples on our joint profile who are guilty of being Pests too in the past. One couple used to message us asking if I was bi every couple of weeks, till we blocked them. So it's not just men who are guilty, but looks worse because of how many men are on fab. " I don't want to block men from messaging me because, some DO accept I don't want to meet them and we go on to have interesting and good conversations, and I don't want to sacrifice that for the sake of some dickheads. | |||

"I get you . So many messages from men with straight on profile , not looking for tvs when you reply x Not in age range x Some apologise but many don’t x Guy last night “ your lucky I even looked at your profile you lot are just creepy “ I guess he was referencing TVs x this was on the site TVChix !!! I said well you obvs didn’t look at profile as you wouldn’t messaged me x I would say I get 6 a day across Fab G Fab S and Tvchix x you aren’t alone my friend " It's annoying isn't it?! I do feel particularly sorry for tvs as you probably get a decent amount of unnecessary, abusive messages. I get some myself but, they're normally about me saying "no" or my appearance, as opposed to the way I present to society. | |||

If only people would do a little research on their profiles and put blocks in place no one would be complaining about unnecessary attention. " I do realise that thanks but, I enjoy talking to people.

I just want to know why people think this is the case, and does anyone think its likely/possible to effectively discourage this behaviour?" Because their respect for boundaries is non-existent and their entitlement is huge. I personally don't understand the pleading or abuse when being told "no thank you" or the reply "your loss". An odd way to deal with rejection. | |||

I admit I do use the filters because of previous messages such as the example OP posted. For me- if a profile stated no (whatever I am) I wouldn't even contact them. Who am I to put my needs before their preferences? | |||
