"I have different standards in a sex site than if I was looking for a relationship. Not necessarily lower but definitely different. There are things that would bother me in a long term relation, but wouldn’t be a problem in a casual one. And the other way around is also valid." This is what I thought would be many peoples idea! Though some may think they would lower their standards looks-wise for guaranteed sex with someone | |||

"We only meet people we fancy and We only have sex with people we fancy and get along with . No point just meeting people for sex you have no attraction to as there’s no fun in that. Having said that though I might lower my knickers for you if you turned up in that waist coat " Oh really, so the suit does it for you then does it I might have to start wearing it wherever I go haha | |||

"This is not a sex site, it's a swingers site. So it's not instashag, like a lot of people seem to think. People on here still have a right to say 'no' and not having to justify their choices. When it comes to meeting people off here (and I have met quite a few), I personally don't go for looks, I need a connection. So what, in the OP's opinion, might be people lowering their standards, it is, actually, people making choices according to their preference, whatever that might be. " People meeting those who they would not necessarily find attractive if they saw them in the street for instance - purely because they are offering guaranteed sex | |||

"I don’t think people lower their standards in here, some do maybe. But I think we are just all honest, straight to the point and know what we want. You can still be like that and not lower your standards, I certainly don’t lower mine. But I get where you are coming from with people having sex with people who they wouldn’t look at in the street just because of guaranteed sex. No doubt it does happen on here. " What’s this about ‘guaranteed sex’ on here? Nothing is guaranteed, not even replying to a message | |||

"Reading stuff that’s posted in the forums suggests and / or confirms at times that people, mainly men do lower their standards, which is why they get shitty when rejected." This is very true. | |||

"Standards' is a tricky thing to define ... standards for what? Here compared to what? It's a sex site though, so I'm thinking about it in comparison to standards for 'pulling' in a social situation such as a pub or club. I've spent quite a long time since I've been here, looking at local profiles, their veris, and profiles behind the veris. Lots of lovely people and all that I'm sure, but some of the women are pulling guys who would normally be way out of their league as far as physical looks go. " I disagree, I would have to lower my standards to pull someone who was merely good looking, i am after way more than that in the real world, i would be looking for class, education, character, personality, integrity, authenticity etc, etc, etc. So yes, I can shag a 30 yr old male model and be lowering my standards thank you. What can I say, I was horny. | |||

Because guaranteed sex and swinging are pretty much mutually exclusive. I personally go for the same kind of man in the scene (yes, there is a scene outside this site) as I do in the vanilla world. They also usually go for me in the vanilla world. Sometimes they are even the same guy. | |||

Lots of lovely people and all that I'm sure, but some of the women are pulling guys who would normally be way out of their league as far as physical looks go. With supply and demand as it is, women have absolutely no need to 'lower standards', as evidenced by the mainly female responses here and the significant silence from the guys. I wonder what would happen to standards if there was 200 women chasing every guy? Just a thought." My standards would still be the same. I would rather wait around for someone who is 100% what I’m looking for than lower my standards to someone “meh” just to get laid, like a lot of men on here do. “Any holes a goal” kind of attitude many men on here have. Some of us aren’t that desperate or impatient. | |||

"Just something I’ve been thinking about This is a sex site - many people don’t leave a lot to the imagination in their photos, also many people are open and say they want to have sex and make people are aware that is purely what they are after. Do you think this means that many people lower their standards on fab for guaranteed sex - and perhaps sleep with many people they wouldn’t look at twice in the street? Or would you say many people are just as fussy about people they play with off here as they would be with going out on a date with someone, for instance? " I think some do yes and I also think some raise their expectations because of the interest in them | |||

We are also the same it's a totally different process and we would be looking for the same standards just different needs. | |||

"The responders here say as much as the responses. It’s simply a numbers game, the fact is literally any woman on here can get offers of sex within the hour even if she looks like an extra from Labyrinth so they don’t have to lower their standards. Guys however may choose to lower their standards to match. Personally if someone has a face like Shrek, a personality like a brick and a pussy like a punched lasagne, no amount of desperation will ever get me there. " Think you’ve summed it up perfectly Much of the women and couples on here can afford to be picky as the sheer amount of messages and attention they get Whereas, much of the men may perhaps sleep with people they wouldn’t look at twice in the street purely because of the little amount of attention they get | |||

"Standards implies that your image is more important to you than anything else. Women cum in all shapes and sizes and each of them has a different personality and if you think that shagging only the beautiful models will do it for you then you are fooling yourself. I had a 2 1/2 year relationship with a 54 year old granny who was the most wonderful, amazing, kind and dirty person I have ever met. She dressed like a porn star in bed but was a normal working professional woman outside of our relationship. She was well built and quite raucous and taller than me in her heels but we had so much fun despite what our appearances might have suggested that it gave me an insight into the prejudice that “lowering your standards” implies. Never mind the ratios it’s all about the person." “54 year old granny” LOL! I’m guessing that relationship was when you were young then? As it’s only 3 years from your age now. | |||

" We haven't and won't, probably why after almost a year we've yet to gel with the right people to play with. Yes we've got more flesh on show than we'd ever post on other social networking sites but it doesn't make our morals or standards lower, to us it's just a little fun, we wouldn't just shag anyone for the experience or veri's. There had to be genuine attraction, respect and consideration before any of that. | |||

"Different criteria for different things. On here physical appearance, charm and wit play a larger part than they would if I was looking for a long term partner, where substance, honesty, lifestyle, solvency and many other heavy weight criteria are more important. So if by ‘standards’ you mean physical appearance, then my ‘standards’ are higher on fab than in real life." yes I get that you can demand a better looking man because of supply and demand it's the western way or the fab way | |||

"99% of men on here will lower their standard if they think they are going to get laid, and by standards I think in the outside world that would be someone they would have a relationship with or be seen with openly whether that means age, looks, size whatever. Couples and single females however I don't think do lower their "standards" simply because of the amount of choice they have on the site, in fact I've seen loads of times where you could say they have raised their "standard". Just my opinion. " I think this is quite correct. I've seen young single males in the chat rooms talking to a women they wouldn't look at twice in a club or pub, especially if they were with their mates. For example, a 20 something lad telling a woman old enough to be his Nan to show her tits again happens in the chat rooms, but out with his mates at Spoonies, she wouldn't even crop up on his radar. Couples though (and I'm part of a couple on here) are much choosier. | |||

They would not be the kind of guys I would come into contact with on here or in life outside of here. | |||
