Women are more likely to read profiles.

Men tend to see the pretty pictures and shoot their shot even when the barest glance at the text would tell them they have no chance

Probably because you're hot

You could always set your filters though?

I read them, it’s important I think, especially when reaching out to firstly understand if your approach might be welcome or unwanted (in which case don’t do it) or to be able to reference their profile and show some thought has gone into the introduction.

Sadly not everyone thinks this way and a plethora of hey, how’s u, wuu2 (I had to look up that one) and others are sent.

Annoying but I guess you can’t blame them for trying

At least you can block couples with your filters.

If I set my filters to no couples then it’s no point me being on here as there’s very few single bi women,I have no problem a women being in a couple just don’t want the male involvement

So, even if someone clearly states that you're not what they're interested in, and you have zero chance, you should go bother them anyway?

Because maybe you'll make an exception for them since they're so special?

I mean, they're not going to demonstrate they're special, and it's going to be the same old small talk and one handed wank fodder, but you should still give them a chance, right?

Easiest thing to do is block couples from messaging! So many seem to think girl/girl meets are an excuse to bring along a spectator

7 couples looked and didn't message. The other 2 might not be on the forum.

I looked to see what your profile said. Some women have men ticked and then wonder why men message them.

People have to look at your profile to read it (and then know you only want to meet women).

I believe it depends on the type of engagement people are looking for.

Myself, I quickly go through the profile, and send an initial message. If I get a reply, I re-reas the profile carefully

Not everyone has time for legal reading and read the terms and conditions

I would say make it simple, precise and straight to the point but in a way, that probably won't help as most won't read it anyway

We always read the profiles just to see if they are looking for the same as us.

We are not looking to do anything with couples or single women but we do like to talk them at clubs for the social side of the night.

It would be so much easier if people did read our profile though especially because we won’t be budged on what we are looking for. But I suppose it’s just one of they things.

I rarely read profiles these days but then again I haven't sent a first contact message in 3 years so profile content is irrelevant. I say on my single profile that I'm not meeting for personal reasons and most seem to respect that but Bo also has that on her profile and it's the first line of this profile and there is often an assumption it's not a hard and fast rule and doesn't apply to them.

In saying that we have to assume that most do read ours because it's written in such a way that people can self filter and we've had less than 30 messages in total so it must work

I think your excuse for not using your message filters is a bit lame. Either use them and make the effort to message or wink the profiles you are interested in, or don’t. You therefore can’t really complain about the consequences of NOT using your filters though.

Message filters are a great tool

We get quite frustrated with this. Our profile is quite clear in what we’re looking for but it’s hardly ever read. Always becomes apparent they haven’t read the profile after a couple of messages when they start asking for things we don’t do

Great way of filtering I think

You seem to think that people only look at profiles because they want to fuck the person.

I gave a clear reason why they may be looking because of your post but perhaps you didn't understand what I said. Have fun.

People may look when you post in forums, as filters don't show here.

Them looking is fine, if its truly annoying why not block/filter the messages?

Seems like a bit of something over nothing.

Ok I asked just a simple question !

Firstly my filters are on and all men are blocked,couples aren’t blocked for the simple reason that there are bi females in couples that play alone I know this as I’m one of them and over the last 10 years of being on fab met others,not got a problem with couples looking at me at all but when it’s the male messaging me I do !

I’ve been called lame for not setting my filters and been made out to be a bit of a drama queen just by asking the question

I on the Thee hand do read profiles and respect there wishes and wants.. just saying

I've found women seem to read it the majority of men don't, couples it's hit and miss, we get more messages from men asking to meet than anything else, despite saying we don't meet men, so it's just a huge waste of their extensive copy and paste message that usually states "I read your profile and liked what I see" like duck off if you'd read it you'd see we don't meet men, that and I don't want to see your cock.

I just wind them up though, waste my time I'll waste there's.

I, like most people probably, look at the pictures first and maybe fab a few (although did that yesterday to a couple who started a thread and was blocked instantly even though I had no intention of messaging them or even commenting on their thread) before reading the profile.

Would not dream of sending a message without having read the profile first, but then I don't send many

Based on the number of messages I get from people who clearly haven’t read, I’d say a high percentage don’t

….. But

What you don’t see is how many look at your profile, do read it , decide you’re not for them and then don’t message you.

Perhaps when we consider that, more people do read than don’t ?

I read profiles properly (sometimes more than once) but I think its partly because its like an OCD thing for me and also respectful plus ive seen a lot of people's profiles make a point of mentioning it before messaging. a lot of people will say what they want a person to write in the subject field at the end of their bio to make sure its been read properly, which I think is quite reasonable

You point out that couples have visited your page after saying on here you don’t meet couples but then saying you are happy to meet the female from the couples.

How are the female from the couples going to view your profile, other than from their couples profile

We always read profiles - we sometimes message people to tell them their profile/pics stand out but we always respect filters or preferences.

FAB is easy if you keep it easy.

I do this every so often as well.

I can’t make it any clearer on my profile as to what I’m looking for but I get dozens of messages daily from guys asking to meet.

I don’t mind chatting about forum stuff which is why I don’t always use my filters also I suppose I think people shouldn’t waste their time messaging if they’re not what you want.

That’s not going to happen though.

I always read, and for me red flag (not send message) is "Not Looking for Single guy" or/and bareback so i just move to next profile(s)

Yes, we always read the profile first. That way if we don’t tick the profiles boxes and they don’t tick ours , we don’t waste anyone’s time. But has a couple we get the same problem. We clearly state, we are both smokers and soft swap only but we still get problems.

As a typical example I’ve just received a message from a guy saying how great it is that I’m looking for two men and can he be one of them?

I've had a few copy/paste messages in my time. They're incredibly obvious. I'm guessing women get a hell of a lot more of that sort of thing than I do. So it must be even more obvious to them when a profile hasn't been read.

We always read the profile first - nothing worse than checking the pics out first, finding we’re turned on by them only to then be disappointed that our profiles don’t match or we’re not what they are looking for.

I always do as I try to send a message highlighting something on there….it hardly ever leads to a response though

Hardest message to send is the profiles that have nothing on them and then it’s just a “hit and hope” punt on the weather / sex interests….no wonder I don’t get responses

I do. I like to read nice short profiles. I will never read a book length ones. Simply because it's to much for me. I don't need to know everything about you.

Always, everytime -- although if it goes beyond a few paragraphs or is all negative and full of 'do nots', then I usually give up before the end.

I’m a serial profile reader! It’s odd how you message people who you think you would connect with and even use their strange message tag and you still don’t make a connection. Guess that’s part of fab though. Too many options lol

Sorry what's this post about just jumped straight in, joking. I read profiles but I think shucks after few lines as I'm not compatible so no need read the rest and obviously no need to message and move on to next person in search list.

90% of the profiles doesn't make sense, even if you see some nice scenery and you ask where about is that place people don't answer and they straight away think that you want to have sex, come on a bit socialising haven't kill no one

I read profiles usually stop when there is something that disqualifies me such as "not looking for men" or I'm outside the age range, still have a nosey of the public pics but otherwise leave them in peace

Not many people bother reading them fully is my guess.

I don’t always read a long profile fully I just scan it for keywords to determine if it’s worth my time messaging / replying etc

With the messages I receive from couples it appears not many. The irony when they have something on theirs saying ‘people who don’t read the profile will be blocked’.
