"The men to women ratio on here is ridiculous lol.When I checked there was 55 women to 300+ men it’s no wonder it’s hard to get conversations going on here. Now I’m not complaining it’s obvious that the women just have it better than the men here..I’m just wondering what the advice is from the experiences swingers here.I always read a profile before I send a message and always include a face pic (I’m not bad looking but not ripped either). So for the men: What do ye find works to stand out from the crowd? For the ladies: What do ye like to see among the “how you x” and dick pic messages ![]() I can assure you the women don't have it easier than the men. Out of those 300 men there may be 2 that read profiles, don't send a stupid 'fuk now' message or don't act like cavemen. | |||

"I’ve read a lot of women’s profiles saying that men send them abusive messages etc when they don’t get a reply. To be honest I think that sort of behaviour should be shown to a moderator or admin and definitely warrants a ban.." Even if you report the message or profile and it is removed, absolutely nothing stops them from setting up another account from a different email. We have blocked profiles only to get a mountain of abuse off another profile two mins later. | |||

I agree with the above And would also say that a lot of messages go unread too | |||

It is what it is - part numbers game, part luck and 100% attraction and what the recipient is feeling at the time. It's never personal, even if the person you message fails to respond at all. They don't know you at the end of the day. | |||

"Don't be dick Treat people with respect Get yourself stuck into the Forums (I've often been approached off the back of the forums) And bare in mind those statistics you've just mentioned, be realistic and don't get frustrated. Remember you won't be everyones cup of tea (even if they're yours). But generally decent guys will do ok on here. Especially the more you get known on the wider scene (if the swingers scene is what your here for of course)." Spot on buddy! Couldn't have put it better myself. | |||

"I hadn’t thought of it that way ![]() Even though this is a swingers or sex sites don’t be lazy .. most women will want a tailored message... l suggest looking at the daily updates and be inspired by their updates.. or something that caught your eye in their profile as most men don’t bother to read them and women can tell.. women on here clearly want sex but also not to be disrespected.... just because we are.

Mark as unread, delete, block, move on. They soon get bored when you don’t play their sick game. | |||

Someone who sounds friendly and has a verified account. Strange how many people don't read profiles and it shows. | |||

"I know on a swinger site it's more men to women, but that's because there are more married men on here. I've worked for a dating agency, where its mainly women looking for love, and a truly single man is a scarcity. Women struggle like men on here to find and therefore meet guys, partially because guys don't put effort into their profiles with minimal effort into the text, (remember women prefer reading to pics), lack of decent pictures, guys are visual, hence porn mags as opposed to 50 shades of grey, to be fair I find guys boring if all they can talk about and are only interested in 'getting it on'. " Wow. That was so insightful. That’s for sharing. X | |||

"Don’t rely on here. Get out to clubs and meet people. That’s the only way you’ll be taken seriously until you build up a rapport with people. ![]() Yep, 100% agree. Those of us who approach in a respectful, intelligent and thoughtful way still have to come across well in ways that are beyond control (natural attraction being an obvious one). Going to clubs and socials has been the clincher for me and I've had an awful lot more success - and more importantly grown genuine friendships with several fabulous women and couples. I'm pretty average in most respects and certainly no adonis, which proves the point beyond doubt. | |||

"Haha yup. You wouldn’t believe the number of ‘great pics’ messages I get. It’s a very effective filter x " Wow and you have got some amazing pics I see what you mean there :D I love the copy and paste ones that say we both look amazing or have someone else’s name in them and the ones that just can’t read although we have put quite a lot down to read | |||

"Just wondering OP (or anyone) how is the ratio of men to women checked on here exactly?" There's been several goes of taking amateur surveys over the years. Most involve using the "whose nearby" function and the "search" function at various differently populated locations around the UK to get a balanced view and in the case of the latter reducing where necessary till the largest demographic of single guys is reduced to under 300? Not possible in all areas but a great deal of them. The last one I believe came up with about a 12 to 1 ratio, which can be assumed to be about anywhere between 12 and 15 due to the amount of fake female profiles I believe? Also there USED to be a ratio of about 9 to 1 years ago, but the single guy proportion increased over the years as Fab became more mainstream. B | |||

The better option is to just not open any future messages from them, so they get bored and move on ![]() | |||
