Women more selective than men

All over the place! Northwesr, , Southwest

I like reading profiles here from both women and men as they can often give us some insight into the person's personality and wants, especially if it's a well written one.

I've noticed that in general, women on fab are much more demanding in their requirements for a potential match (sexual) than men are. Women are more likely to specifically state characteristics they want, such as a body type, height, personality, cock size etc.

Conversely, most male profiles won't spell out these requirements in detail at all.

Is this a natural.consequence of the male to female ratio of fab that allows women to be much more selective than men?

Or is it something more base at work? In the animal kingdom males mate with anyone to propagate their seed far and wide, where as females are choosy and want the ones with the better genes for procreation.

Does this subconsciously exist in people when looking for a purely sexual liason? Thoughts?

Personally I don’t want to exclude someone that might be great to be with because they are 2 inches too short or whatever.

But from a woman’s point of view they probably need a few filters in there or they would get ten times the messages

If men make any comment about 'types' they like, the opposite types have a melt down!

I like many different types of people so can't specify. Also it would probably sound like I'd fuck anyone that asked.

Types annoy me. Preferences sounds better. Saying that one has a "type" basically cuts out them meeting someone who could be wonderful, but has passed them by because of one little benign thing. I think people who say they only have this one type they go for need to get over themselves and stop fetishizing things so much

I am permanently horny but I am still very selective and have preferences. Which is probably why I haven't met anyone......

I just don't have a type! A face and personality are what do it for me. If those two things are click for me body shape and size to a certain extent are irrelevant. So there's no point in specifying.

Yes, I am selective but I don't specify details like how you men should look / cock size etc etc, I "judge" my men on their approach, if they make me laugh and if we can talk as well as find each other attractive (which of course IS important) and my approach has worked well for me this far

I just don't/won't fuck "anyone" ... and there's nowt wrong with that in my opinion

I don't have a 'type'. But logically it would make sense to state it on my profile if I did, purely in an attempt to save everyone time and effort; if I were one of the in demand girls who got hundreds of messages, that is. Anything that could narrow down the fab options would surely help in such instances - whether or not people would read it is a different matter entirely.

I am not selective on requirements, I don't have strict specifications on height, cock size etc but I know what I want in terms of their behavior and attitude, and I don't see a problem with that.

Nope I’m very selective but I don’t have specific requirements. I know what I like and know when I see it in a person. It can be very different depending on the person though.

Or maybe they just fancy that type.

I won't fuck people for many 'little benign things'. Any tiny thing puts me off.

Generalising, I think women are more likely to have less sexual partners than males because (generally) they need more of a mental connection to be sexually attracted whereas male sexuality is more based on physical attraction

By and large we try not to attach labels on people and prefer to see the people for who they are.

There are filters that some are adamant to include on their profile /messages that see us press delete.

It isn't difficult, the clues are there, yet some just fuck up even before they may spark an interest.

There have been meetings with people who do fall outside of our "listed" demographics, but they've achieved this through imagination, courtesy and a respectful appreciation of who we are based on reading our profile. All of this is the currency with us, we like people and like listening to what those who pique our interest have to say.

We think like others said,its because woman can be choosy on here,as they are so in demand.

Be interesting to see the roles reversed and men receiving tonnes of mail,which women do even without profile txt or pics

Why wouldn't anyone be choosy according to their own personal preferences? I expect most women on here to be choosy as a minimum.

First of all, In fab land the stats are heavily skewed in favour of women.

There was a interesting post on the OKC blog regarding this. Broadly summarized that women would reject 80% of available men as unsuitable, whereas men rejected 50% of available women as unsuitable.

I've always always had the same preferences, I have more than the ones mentioned in my profile but some I'll bend on, things like penis size is something I won't compromise on. If that makes me picky I don't really care.

If there is more choices, then you can be more selective, but when you don't have much choice then you go with the flow.

You decide who has more choices here in fab.

It's about numbers. That's why many of the men on here are more picky away from Fab.

Very interesting feedback so far. Do you feel that people who are more choosy in the virtual realm will be more flexible say, in a club setting, where a lot more dynamics come into play?

The most asked question I receive from the ladies is; “What’s your type?” Which is the most loaded question a man can receive lol. My answer, which is genuinely true, is; “A woman confident, and comfortable with herself. That is what I find attractive”

I don't think it's necessarily being choosy online, it's just having different information. A single pic and a bit of text might put someone off but in a club they see a happy smiley person and feel attraction.

There and to the left a bit

I think we all (men and women alike) have our preferences and are selective, to a greater or lesser degree, as a result of them - sure there are some on here for whom "any hole's a goal" to use an it phrase, but I think the vast majority of us apply our own levels of selectiveness.

Now how we state those preferences may well differ from person to person, and potentially from gender to gender - but I don't think it's limited to just one specifically.

This

The thing that falls flat for most approach's is that sender is being ruled by their loins and generally they don't see past this and invest time and thought into their who fab personality. Thank goodness in many cases as the self filter is almost as good a tool, as the one writing it

As a general rule (to which there are many exceptions). Men will try to appeal to the widest possible fab audience. Hence the many claims that personality is more important than looks and age, race and size are immaterial followed by the accusations they are basically saying they'll have sex with anybody.

Men are more inclined too, to start a thread asking what women want hoping that there will be one magic phrase that will bring them flocking. This suggests to me that men want choice as much as women do but due to numbers need to work harder to obtain it.

In answer to the question are people less picky in clubs I'd say they are moztly. You can't always tell how old, tall, married a person is in a club.

It’s different for us as my wife loves to please me , and that ultimately means she will go with guys for that reason , rather than her personal type .

I on the other hand , am way more choosy than she is as there really does have to be something that does it for me , or I simply can’t perform .

I stated earlier that I don't have a particular body type, that I am am more drawn by some ones face or smile and personality. This is still clearly a preference. Even when preferences aren't stated, for most people there is some thing happening on a subconscious level.

I think it's important that peoples stated preferences, no matter how much we agree or disagree with them, shouldn't be seen as some thing negative and should be respected.

What more dynamics come in to play in a club setting? In a club, you have the choice of whoever is there at the same time as you, and out of those, you choose who appeals the most, surely? Online, you have any amount of profiles which take your fancy, then you choose between those who actually reply to your messages. And don’t forget, when they were choosing for the football team at school, being the last person chosen because that’s who was left, was a bitter pill to swallow. So when your messages in here are ignored, it’s not as brutal as being ignored in a club

It can sometimes be very different meeting someone in person and i've experienced this in clubs. Often times a person looks better than their pics when you actually see them "live".

I've had ladies tell me that they've played with men in clubs that if they had been judged purely by what's in the virtual realm, they would've given them a pass.

Often times someone's personality shines more in person than through messaging as well.

Not necessarily. Ron jeremy, one of the greatest porn actors of all time, who got more p***y than men get in 50 lifetimes, was the antithesis of someone you'd consider "hot". He obviously knew something a lot of "hotter" men didn't

I think the profile narrowing down of guys that women want in contrast to guys who do this less is just reflective of women having more choice here. All genders are fussy but if you are getting tons of inappropriate messages, spelling out who you want to hear from is an option to reduce the effort from unsuitable people. I'm really selective and think most of us here are the same

Words like "choosy" and "picky" offend some if they're excluded.

Most of us have preferences: not everyone you meet you want to fuck, but for some, if they're not balls deep a minute after asking then dummies get thrown out of prams.

maybe women feel the need to be upfront with rules/demands/requirements because they want you to read there profile before we mail them, they use them to filter. Where I don't think men have to.
