Upgraded filters idea

Jump to newest
 

By (user no longer on site) OP   
over a year ago

Would anyone be in favour of better filters which would allow us to find exactly what we're looking for, rather then scrolling through masses of profiles with no joy....

Such as;

Body type

Hair colour

Ethnicity

Hair colour

Height

I think it would help in finding the perfect "match"

It'd just be another minefield of lies I think.

And body type... That's so subjective. I originally put down curvy thinking of my then higher weight, but don't know what I am now.

Sadly, a couple of the filters you suggest are subjective. One person may look at another and say they're 'average' in terms of body type, another will say they're 'curvy'.

I think it's a good idea, overall though.

All straight men need on here is;

Tits

More filters just means more attempts to get round them

It does surprise me though that a persons 'ethnicity' isn't listed here whereas it is on Fabguys (or at least it was when I was last there)

It made it so much easier to seek out mixed race guys (which I have particular soft spot for)

I think it would be good to have filters for

[ ] Crazy

[x] Nymphomaniac

[x] Has a massive collection of sex toys

So broadly speaking I’m in favour of some more filters, but not necessarily the physical ones

Yeah but you could put it into brackets for example

Size 8/10 or 10/12 or 12/14 etc.

Same with waist size for men

I’m different sizes in different shops.

Surely you don't differ more than a size or two. As for the liars - they will always be there I agree but when you do meet they're easily sussed out.

Yep. I can be a size ten in some shops, in H&M I struggle to get into a size 18.

And okay, say I’m a 14 (my average before I got pregnant). That looks a lot different on me, who’s 5’7, than it does on someone who’s 5’1, or 6’2

It basically just comes down to labelling people...

Would rather have filters that were better suited to stopping the hoards of unwanted messages, from men. So we can still get messages from forumites etc

I don't think it's labelling as it's what you physically are. 10 stone is always going to be 10 stone.

As for the dilemma in clothes shopping it explains why shopping with women can take hours

You’ve got hair colour down twice. But even if you had it down once, is it really that much of a deal breaker that you would’ look at someone with a certain colour hair?

No. Just common sense is needed. You clearly would know what 10 stone looks like on someone is 4ft and someone is 6ft

Or alternatively, just see someone you like the look of and hope they have a full body pic in their collection

I mean that's what we're getting at here right?

So us who disagree aren’t genuine?

It’s not an overly bad idea. Just in practice it wouldn’t work

I expect there's a lot of guys that would look at my pictures and be up for a meet with me.

I wonder how many of them would want to if they hadn't seen my pictures but been told that a girl weighing over 13 stone and wearing dress size 16 fancied a meet with them?!

Ethnicity isn't listed but you can still do it by advanced search.
