"Being able to see what utter crap women get messaged (through K), I'm not surprised that some of them take this stance" Oh, I'm not saying it's not appropriate in certain situations, but out of context (it happens a lot on "new" profiles, too) it's not really a good first impression, I feel. | |||

"I hope mine doesn't seem aggressive. I keep meaning to update it but I've been lazy." Not at all. There's a HUGE difference in being aggressive and simply stating what you do and don't like! Also.yeah..I feel your pain, mine's in desperate need of a revamp! | |||

Kind of..but I do think people get waaaaay too easily offended by crap these days. It seems to be becoming a common trend! | |||

"I don't think mine comes across as aggressive, though I do say one the phrases you mentioned (kinda) I'm going to delete it all soon anyway, need a change. " No, it doesn't. It's all about the context and other profile text. I'm talking more about the shorter, less comprehensive profiles. | |||

"This morning I have had a number of messages. One was from a guy asking if I would shit in his mouth. And the other was a guy begging me to have a baby with him. So although I wouldn’t be that demanding in my profile description personally, I understand why some women are!" My species never fails to amaze me haha | |||

"Just a cold Sunday pondering: Looking and reading (yes..a single guy who actually reads profiles - "apparently" there aren't many of us!) I've noticed that there seems to be a bit of an influx/trend/whatever for people to be extremely demanding and quite aggressive in their profile content. "must be (insert words here* or "NO (insert words here) otherwise you will be blocked" etc. It's occasionally followed by something along the lines of "I'm sorry if this makes me come across like a bitch" I wonder if others have seen this, and if it puts people off messaging them. I have to admit, even if I were their type, I'd be hugely put off by it! Just a little light thread for a bloody cold Sunday morn.! x" Yes, those profiles put me off. | |||

The people who send messages like that rarely read profiles though so I don't think it helps. Though I do find that having some things on my profile that I'm not looking for/ that I am not is a good filter as it's often very obvious when they haven't read my profile at all. | |||

Just a little light thread for a bloody cold Sunday morn.! x" I think it’s a case of those profiles being influenced by the community. Everyone has that breaking point and there are only so many times you’ll kindly ask someone to leave you alone before telling them fuck off in no uncertain terms. We tried to be a bit more neutral with our profile and be a bit more fun and friendly with it. We have our own preferences obviously, but we’d rather invite the conversation and then say “no thanks” than turn everyone away with a really restrictive list of things we want! Obviously we haven’t been here as long as some others - so maybe in time we’ll get ground down too? | |||

"I think people just get fed up of the crappy no effort messages and are overwhelmed with them, so attempt to reduce them by putting clear instructions on what they don’t want. Unfortunately this can come across as ranty. To anyone reading this who hasn’t tried it, block single men and go search out what you want. Unless you are really just in it for attention and as many messages and fabs as possible, it will improve your fab experience dramatically." Or just delete men off your 'Looking for' list. It takes your profile off their searches and reduces mail. Some men are decent. The 'bad' messages just make it easier to spot the nice/ compatible ones. | |||

In that I can understand why the attitude comes across, frustration from all the pricks out there, but it doesn't really solve anything. Why make yourself come across as a ranty, aggressive, almost unapproachable person (unless that's the real you anyway) when, let's be honest, the people it is aimed at are just going to ignore it anyway while you possibly turn off those that may otherwise be exactly what you would be looking for. | |||

" They've been scrolling through profiles and seen graphic hardcore sex pics. Gaping holes dripping with cum. Verifications describing sex acts 'recommending' that person as someone worth fucking. Their head (and hand!) is full of sex. If someone mails me a sexually explicit message, why would I be suprised? | |||

Listing what you like/don't like is fine though really. It's none aggressive and even if I don't plan on messaging the person after all it's quite fun to read and see what they are and aren't in to. A bit like people watching! | |||

I don’t rant on my profile often as it falls on deaf ears anyway. How someone runs their profile is of no concern to me, only my response matters. Profiles are for attracting and also the opposite | |||
