irc333 Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 Very interesting...seems no matter how HORRIBLE a woman is (in her profile), including tormenting the homeless, will still message a woman as long as she was hot.
newmoon Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 it just shows that men get no farther than the pic. why waste time even writing a profile? just post age and a pic and you're set 1
sagetalk Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 There is a reason why there are 100's of guru's to help guys get girls to message them, but not the other way around. All girls need is a selfie photo that shows they are not obese, and they will be flooded with messages. 3
winny Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 (edited) There is a reason why there are 100's of guru's to help guys get girls to message them, but not the other way around. All girls need is a selfie photo that shows they are not obese, and they will be flooded with messages. Getting messages from creepy guys who just want to sleep with you is worse than not getting any. But for guys it's different.. Most of them are totally willing to go for an easy f*uk. And do not feel insulted or upset or think their time is wasted by talking to such girls... Edited January 7, 2014 by winny Correction
Editbee Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 Isn't this the female version of the attractive, bad guy getting all the attention from some women that are willing to go through all that drama just because he's outgoing and good-looking? Like the bad guy, I doubt anyone would want them as a relationship material person but rather a short-lived fling because you're young and get carried away with how attractive they are and hormones. 3
Woggle Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 Some people will tolerate anything and I mean anything if somebody is hot enough. Somebody could be a murderer and they will still get admirers if they are attractive. I am not one of those people.
sagetalk Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 Getting messages from creepy guys who just want to sleep with you is worse than not getting any. I think many guys would disagree with that. Having an empty message box day in and day out is more depressing than having girls message you about hooking up. Even if you're not interested, it beats nothing at all.
ThaWholigan Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 True, there have been many experiments of male profiles with male models pics that got tons of messages - and normal male profiles with 0 messages. While they also made profiles of particularly overweight women also, and they got tons of messages too. It's just the reality of OLD - women get way more messages on average, while as a guy, you're lucky if you get a few. The problem is for women, they get all kinds of stupid, f*cked up messages. 2
soccerrprp Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 Please do not include me in the WE. I do read profiles and I would never contact a woman like that no matter how hot. In fact, I stayed clear of many hot women with crappy perspectives of the world, other people, etc. 1

On average, I send about 5-10 first messages in a month.
Woggle Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 It works the other way around as well. Ted Bundy who brutally murdered a number of women had his share of admirers. The Boston Bomber has some who have turned him into a teen heartthrob.
InnocentMan Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 Women's profiles on OLD sites are generally banal crap. Don't waste your life reading them. They mostly don't care if you have. Meeting people on OLD is all about the looks. If you can't accept that, don't whine about it. 1
hotpotato Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 Well, yes, because the guys are looking for 'one thing, so it doesn't matter how bad her profile is. I have btdt so I can attest. I promise it's not roses for a woman in the dating world because she is attractive.
carhill Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 IRL, not OLD, I've tolerated a couple more iterations of unacceptable behavior from 'a hot babe' than from one not so hot. Generally, regardless, it's the 'three strikes and you're out rule', lately a bit less due to adjustments in 'benefit of the doubt'. The mentally ill and/or addicted don't get as much sympathy as prior. YMMV.
bubbaganoosh Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 Not me. Oh hell no. If she can't act like a normal human being and think that she's better than everyone else, then she can take a flying leap. There is no excuse for bad behavior. It's an embarrassment and I've met a few in my time and they can keep on walking. 1
InnocentMan Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 Seeing an above average looking woman on OLD, mental issues and social defects should be a given. I'm sure there are some 'normal' ones on it, but the chances of you finding them, and then them actually answering your message among the hundreds they get per minute, are pretty remote. You would probably have more success by opening your window and screaming 'hot girl, pick me'. 1

Having an empty message box day in and day out is more depressing than having girls message you about hooking up. Even if you're not interested, it beats nothing at all. No, she's right. I'm a guy, and I actually get a fair amount of messages on OLD, most of them from women I have no interest in. They are either a bad match, or just make no attempt to look attractive. I do think that the earlier post about women just having avg and post a pic and they get a lot more response is true. I know the volume of messages I get is nothing like that one of my female friends on OLD gets.

Hear, hear old chap. Indubitably.
normal person Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 Please do not include me in the WE. I do read profiles and I would never contact a woman like that no matter how hot. In fact, I stayed clear of many hot women with crappy perspectives of the world, other people, etc. Same. I've turned down very attractive women because they couldn't spell or couldn't find more than two sentences to write about themselves. Maybe I should make an internet meme out of that. Keep in mind this is on OKC or POF -- one of the free sites where the demographic might be more skewed toward sex rather anything serious. There's no way for the author to illustrate all the guys who were disgusted with with the profile, never messaged her, and vomited. All that being said, it's no secret that some guys will overlook a girl's horrible personality if she's hot, just like some girls will overlook a guy's shortcomings if he's rich. This isn't really anything new.
Revolver Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 For sex? A lot But in a relationship no, I couldnt be around someone I couldn't stand,were annoying, or I felt had no common sense simply because they're " hot"
Woggle Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 For sex? A lot But in a relationship no, I couldnt be around someone I couldn't stand,were annoying, or I felt had no common sense simply because they're " hot" Me neither but I see guys put with all kinds of crap just to say they have a hot woman in their life. To me peace and sanity go above even the most attractive women but I realize I am not typical.
