"The worst that can happen is that they say no thanks. Just message them and see. Nobody is out of your league. There's simply people who fancy you, and people who don't." Absolutely this. | |||

"The thing about this site is that there are some ladies who are simply stunning...almost model like...but question is If you think they are out of your league should you even approach them.... I know it is subjective but do women ever like to deliberately bat below their percieved average...is that even a thing?" Obviously a fella so wouldn’t dream of answering for a lady, but what makes you think they would ‘deliberately’ aim low?? Like the poster above mentioned, everyone is individual, will have their likes and dislikes, no two the same, what one hot girl will like, the next hot girl may not. And I think ladies are much more than just visual beings unlike the majority of fellas, they go beyond looks and appearances when they find someone attractive. HG | |||

Putting people in leagues that you think you shouldn't approach is fairly insulting to those you do approach in my opinion. | |||

"It’s just People. No batting, no league, no balls.....well, balls yes but no catching (phew!) no cheering, no jeering... Think positively and just ask. " Totally agree well said...We are all different in all shapes and sizes and all have different mindsets | |||

Studies have shown that men are more able to accurately judge their relative attractiveness whilst women, as a group, performed far worse (i.e. over-estimate). | |||

"Why do people have to think someone is out of their league!!! I think it’s awful that we do!! There is one person who I chat too who I thought that... but I thought sod it and still messaged him!! In fact I’ve mostly messaged all the guys first who I’ve either met or message on a regular basis!! Send a message... what have you got to loose?? " Ha, it's a lot better that way isn't it? Just because the majority of Fab think "blokes message, women don't" doesn't mean it's the right way to do things at all, in fact the opposite I think? I already know every lady's message box will be absolutely rammed which I know full well they hate! Therefore as a rule I usually hardly ever message anyone first, save them the hassle and make their hectic dealing with 400 odd messages a day easier so my not messaging them will actually be appreciated by them, even if it's only a small difference? Most meets I have get in touch with me first and it works better for all concerned? | |||

"You really dont have to be any model look a like to get sex now come on is this a serious question!! You only have to look at the kiss fuck threads never have I seen a man pass. Sex is sex end of " I think the OP may have been asking from a male perspective? It's obvious that women can bat higher on here, whatever that means, as they have far greater choice? But I think he was asking should men do the same? | |||

"Beautiful women with the “I’m out of your league” attitude are clearly happy with their close knit circle that they talk / play with. Leave them to it. Attraction is about chemistry. Looks and connection of the mind and tbh the connection wins every time. Need to acknowledge there are some outlying mingers on here, both male and female who may do better on a donkey sanctuary but if you ignore them it’s how people click that counts. Don’t sweat the ignorant rejections / blanks from people that think they are worth a better shag partner. Focus on the connection. " Absolutely agree | |||

"Am I alone in actually finding it quite insulting to all categories of person that use the site to be thinking in terms of leagues at all? As has already been quite clearly stated in this thread it all ultimately comes down to attraction of one form or another, whether that be physical, mental or a mixture of both and to suggest that someone doesn't know who they are attracted to (which is effectively what thinking someone is "out of your league" is doing) is not crediting them with the ability to decide for themselves. Sure there are some people I find more attractive than others, some of whom there's an immediate physical attraction to but then later find there's not a mental connection, and others who aren't immediately physically attractive to me who I've later got to know better and have been attracted to them because of it. There simply is no rhyme or reason or league to attraction it just is " No you're not alone I mentioned earlier that it's insulting to the people you do contact, its like saying there are people better than you but they are unlikely to meet me so you'll do. | |||

So shall we make a bet then? How much do you want to bet that i can't produce a published study that shows good consensus around what people do and don't find attractive? If there are "no statistics" then the results of showing people pictures and asking them to rate them, would be random or correlations at or below chance. Do you want to bet that i can't find a study with significantly better correlations than chance? How much? | |||

"A nice face and body can be ruined by a horrible attitude. Personality and sense of humour can be just as attractive and affective. I'm proof. If it were down to just lucks I'd be knackered. " Im not sure Im getting this! Because if someone has a great personally you like there humour get on really well etc you still must fancy or be attracted to them physically (face/body or both) or are you saying this is not the case. | |||

"Interesting thread though Also intersting to note, to answer the question means you need to consider yourself A league and most people dont like to be so conceited...so have to say pit thay aside...we are all beautiful and A league...so and this is to the ladies..would you spend the time getting to know someone and/or even fuck them if you didnt find them attractive initially" No. Attraction for me is instant or not at all.

I don't deny that not everyone is for everyone and never have - all I have said is that I find the concept of someone being out of someones league a little insulting in both directions and that attraction is subjective so there can't be any concept of leagues anyway As i say, there's consensus around what is and isn't attractive. So it's more objective than it is subjective. Although men are better at understanding their own relative ranking, than women (on average). I'm shorter than the average male. Women, on average, find taller men attractive. All other things being equal, that would put some women out of my league. It's a statement of statistical fact. I'm not upset or insulted by it. You maybe short like me pal but looking at your Mrs it doesn't look like you would struggle to get attractive women to be interested " Well that was the "all other things being equal" qualifier. Visuals and physical features are less important to women, than men (on average). | |||

"Has anyone ever been contacted by someone very attractive and thought "what the hell they messaging me for?" Then You remember it's a sex site and he was wanting sex, so probably lowering their standards by making contact. I have had messages from men who wouldn't give me a second look in a normal social setting. " You have a beautiful face and a cool T shirt, so I don’t see why not! | |||

"I think a less attractive man would treat me better! I've only ever gone for extreme facial attractiveness and of course those guys are on many other women's radars so they won't make as much effort or be as forgiving of my faults. Basically good looking guys are shits." What makes a guy good looking? What one person may find attractive, I may not. I don’t go for ‘conventionally’ good looking people. I like a little quirkiness to them. | |||

"Am I alone in actually finding it quite insulting to all categories of person that use the site to be thinking in terms of leagues at all? No, there are lot's of snowflakes who agree with you. People who deny statistical facts. Statistical facts such as? I'm genuinely curious because as far as I'm concerned there can be no statistics involved in attraction it simply is what it is, you either are or you aren't without there being any kind of league system at all. So shall we make a bet then? How much do you want to bet that i can't produce a published study that shows good consensus around what people do and don't find attractive? If there are "no statistics" then the results of showing people pictures and asking them to rate them, would be random or correlations at or below chance. Do you want to bet that i can't find a study with significantly better correlations than chance? How much?

"I spoke to a woman on here who says that she needed a break from here. That this site gave her false confidence and in fact arrogance. She would only speak to people with 6 packs, gorgeous etc but in the real world she couldnt get someone like that for a relationship. On this site you can shoot above what you normally would, particularly if you're a woman due to the male/female ratio. Bullseye!! A lady not afraid to say this about fab " Disagree. I'm confident/arrogant in the real world too. | |||

"A nice face and body can be ruined by a horrible attitude. Personality and sense of humour can be just as attractive and affective. I'm proof. If it were down to just lucks I'd be knackered. Or spelling " I dunno, i think its naive in the vast majority of cases to believe the 'its personality that does it for me' story. We see it on profiles a lot, women (men too) who really try hard to come across as what they perceive to be classy, by stating its the mind that wins the day etc. The reality is, a lot of women can aim way higher than usual on here looks wise as its a sex site. It isnt a dating site and as much as some people try to make it so, it aint gonna be. It can be quite psychologically damaging for those who leave the site and try and get a relationship, as they look for things like muscles etc rather than relationship qualities. | |||

Some people won't care about this if they are just looking for a one time bonk. Some do. Personally i do though. | |||

"People aren't all performing in the ways that we assume that they are - we find different things attractive to society's norms. We also want different things from a sex partner than we often do with a long term partner too. Being here offers us choice to explore and to have variety - I think we probably look for more variety than the regular world, to keep things interesting and to satisfy our desires for exploring different things. " To conclude - don't be inhibited from making contact because of your assumptions about what others want because you are probably basing your thinking based on either under-valuing yourself or putting others on pedestals they don't want to be on. | |||

"I have to be able to have fun with someone to want to have fun with them if that makes sense? If they're dull, stupid and unimaginative then I wouldn't be having fun with them no matter what they looked like? It is a fact of life though that in different situations many of both sexes tend to aim differently with regard to what is perceived to be mainstream attractive in different situations? That's what I've found from observing people anyway. Not all, but I'd say more than not. Websites are the more extreme versions of this. Say for example; Fab - Women aim for the moon. They're in much shorter supply and as such can be very choosy. Which stands to reason. It's also why a lot of women (and some freely state it to be fair) are lookimg for a life partner on here. Pulling at a club - Women aim slightly higher than men. Obviously depending on alcohol consumed etc though ha! Looking for a LTR in the real world - Women aim slightly lower than men. Dating site - Men aim for the moon as they're the gold on these sites, the commodity that women all fight over. Women aim way low with looks etc due to the fact most men can take or leave a LTR whereas ladies want it above all else, especially when the biological clock begins to chime... It's also why a lot of men just use dating sites for sex as the ratios are flipped?" Interesting examples, but I don’t follow that. Dating/LTR - aim high. I’m spending my precious time with him, he better be an all rounder! Club - I’m looking for people who swing. Lots of the guys who have the discussed 6-packs don’t play in clubs so aren’t for me. I go for experience, verified guys/couple who have banter, and there’s a naughty chemistry. Fab - I don’t. Many single men here don’t swing so I pass couples - I prefer to come across in the club as attraction is more challenging when there’s two! Regarding leagues: there’s always going to be better looking people but it doesn’t mean they are attractive. Physical Attraction alone doesn’t mean chemistry. | |||

Regarding leagues: there’s always going to be better looking people but it doesn’t mean they are attractive. Physical Attraction alone doesn’t mean chemistry. " I think you misunderstood me slightly, by clubs I meant vanilla clubs as in swingers clubs the ratios are the same as on Fab? And Dating/LTR of course goes on far from looks, experience and sexual chemistry alone. It's understandable that ladies would look for an all-rounder, with ability to provide, good father material etc etc being qualities they're not bothered about in swinging, but if they looked for all these plus all the qualities they looked for in swinging and gorgeous looks then the pool of men left would be massively smaller. And when you consider that men aren't really fussed about seeking a LTR in general whereas women in general yearn for it then you'd be talking a tiny pool for a huge amount of women? Therefore if the majority of ladies, not necessarily you, didn't lower their aim looks wise or in another area, especially as time passed, then the huge majority of ladies would never have long-lasting relationships? | |||

"I'm a sapio sexual. I find attraction and sexual attraction in the mind. Intelligence and personality for me before looks. I dated and lived for 3 years with a wheelchair user. It's not looks; it's the person for me! " this....its more whats on the inside and what you brig to the party, as it were, then how "hot" you look.
