If my profile says I have kids that means I have kid(s) right?
I got 10 emails in two days asking if I have kids. If the profile didnt say anything then I can justify that kind of question. I say it right away so that there is no misunderstandings. Why put anything on there if nobody is going to read it? noway

For the amusement of those who do? For example: "I only dated one cousin and the baby wasn't mine," might give a wrong impression, while, "I have kids," helps weed out those who aren't paying attention.

My theory is men are visual creatures and look at pictures rather than reading the profile. At least that is what I have experienced.

At least you are getting emails!!

This is a most interesting topic, actually. I received an email a couple of weeks back, asking why I didn't want kids.

Well, er, at the grand old age of sixty-four, er, the angle of the dangle does not quite equal the heat of the meat! There's frankness for you! I thought that the writer might perhaps have realised this: clearly, she is of the opinion that a gentleman can rise to the occasion anytime he chooses.

Not so! I do have a daughter aged thirty - but of course I was somewhat younger then!!!!!:cry: :cry: :cry:

At any time you see that I have viewed your profile, I have read it all the way through. Sometimes thats why I will go back to it more than once, just to make sure of what I read.

You know what? They should have a section on if you have pets.
I have an elderly black cat that I have had for a long time. But maybe they save that for the about you section.

Too lazy to read their own copy / paste emails
Boring at least modify them to the suit. People like that I avoid like the plague. I get that all the time it is sad.

the answer is easy.shorter profiles.like the cops say just the facts ma'am.then they would have less reading to do.you could have your normal full lenght profiles and then the abbreviated version for those too lazy to actually read itlaugh laugh laugh

5 of my 6 last profile views are from women under the age of 30, but I figure some of that is just curiosity from conversations in the forums,to seeing who you are chatting with. 2 were not and from states far from where I am. So who knows.

When you're dealing with people who struggle to read a Stop sign, expecting any sort of multi-syllabic profile-words comprehension is a tad bit unrealistic....

:tongue:

Yeah, I said it. Don't tell me you haven't thought the exact same thing!
