Want some honest opinions please people

I'm thinking more pictures is a pretty obvious good shout.

How do people think my bio reads?

Also. Profile picture. Would you have picked this one? I'm thinking I'd be better off with taking another.

You raise a good point about people not meetings. Thanks for the kind words

A functioning brain is a quality you find utmost attractive in others, not upmost.

Well. That's incredibly ironic. Thanks for pointing that one out

I love giving feedback like this.

I do a bit of editing for a living so I'll give it a go.

Your pictures I think could do work, men really overestimate how much women are turned on my big muscles and a penis in a photo.

I find it actually helps to put more vanilla pics in, like you would on a dating site. Just cover your face with an emoji or something. You on a beach, or hiking? That kind of picture makes you approachable, and when your a strange man on the internet looking for people to fuck, you want to come across as trustworthy. Its fine to have the muscles and dick, but switch it up a bit!

Your profile bio could use some work too, this site skews older, you want to sound mature, not childish. Say 'people' not 'Peeps'.

You say " I think of myself as someone with a functioning brain. This is a quality I find the Utmost attractive in others."

Now, I like intelligent conversation as much as anyone, but by saying this you are saying you think most people (potentially most women) don't have a brain. That's not attractive, its condescending.

"You've probably just worked out that I'm a sarcastic bastard."

Do people like this? Sounds like you are telling people you are annoying?

In other ways your bio sounds unsure of yourself, a little rambley....

SO when you write "Pleasantries aside...

I'm cool with meets beforehand. Cheeky coffee? Cheeky vimto? Cheeky 16" pizza? S'all good in this hood. It's a 2 way street, I'm keen to tick boxes for others, maybe try something you've always been curious about?"

I would change that to:

I'm happy to meet beforehand for coffee, drinks or food!

I love helping people fulfil their fantasies - If you have something new you want to try, let me know and I'll see what I can do.

Yeah, overall, you write a bit too much like a teen. You can say all the same things, but present them differently. More direct, confident, and to the point.

That's an interesting take on it. I'm on board with what you said about the pics, adding a few more of the casual variety sounds like a good plan.

Your criticism of my bio is a bit more subjective I reckon. I realise the site skews older but I'm really not interested in people that are really uptight or too serious about life.

With how you'd reword it you're taking the fun out of it. I don't want to sound older. It might work better with the majority but I'm not really aiming at the majority if that makes sense?

Thanks for the feedback nonetheless. Gave me a perspective I hadn't considered.

Think it's just really quiet on here at the moment. Things are just opening up so people are going to be focused on seeing friends and family more than strangers off the web. But give it a few months

This just proves you can't please everyone lol I actually really like OP's bio; it shows he's articulate and intelligent yet cheeky. The example bio you gave, while probably more appealing to an older demographic, seems a bit devoid of personality imo. I guess it all depends on who OP is trying to attract though

I smiled at the cheeky coffee.. cheeky vimto part - please don't change that and sound like a boring bastard rather than a cheeky one.

And I like the bit about the doorways.... and the use of 'biblical'

Hallelujah.

Yeah I likes what I sees. (the pics are good too.. enough left to the imagination etc etc)

Good luck.

Agree, you’re clearly young and seem to believe in the ‘build a profile and they will come’ technique.

If you really were a condescending, cocky kid you’ve nailed it

Just because you don't like black and white photos he shouldn't have them?

Thankfully, the lad has his own mind.

I rather like black and white photos myself.

Your pics lack imagination. Most phones have self timers now so you can take pics without your phone in your hand.

Yes somethings show your age, but your 23. I wish i could go back to my 23 year old body and mind. Lol.

On this site. You wont meet 99.999% of people, but the 0.001% will meet you because your you.

Not at all, you seem intelligent and lighthearted. But anyone's profile can be read differently by everyone that looks at it.
