But you should SEE what my local MM candidates write -- or don't write -- that would be more accurate. When the whole profile is "Hi," it doesn't give you much to work with. |

Don't get me wrong. It just gets sickening when every profile you read has some reference to "the beach" in it. One can only imagine how many hits they would get if they mentioned they liked to hang out at the pool. For me, it's of no interest. I don't care about "the beach". Such profiles immediately make me flip to the next profile. It's like hearing a song on the radio you can't stand. *CLICK!*

I've heard it all before, so many times, I can recite it in my sleep, and there's NOTHING remotely interesting about any of it. I just hope whoever it is who wrote the original profile that 880 trillion women have copied, word-for-word, so they don't have to think up anything for themselves, is getting some royalties on that thing -- |

"I don't know what to write here." "I'll fill this out later." "My friend told me about this site and I'm not going to write anything here until I see if it's worth it." "Anything you want to know, you'll have to ask." "I'm laid back and easy going." "I love my friends and family." "I'm different from anyone else you've ever met." (Then their profile is a word-for-word identical copy of the last 285,000 I've read.) "I'm a single mother of two kids and they are my world." "No game players." "I like going out or staying in." "I'm a fun person who likes to have fun." (A COMPLETE profile from another site.) "I'm me." (Another complete profile -- how very informative!) Profile pictures with more than one person and they never bother to tell you which one the profile belongs to. Misspelled words are bad, yeah. Inability to use apostrophes correctly. "Tired of dating loosers." "Good sence of humor." etc. sounds like you want a woman with absolutely nothing or anyone in her life. maybe you'd be better off with a blow up doll. she doesn't say anything and has no attachment to anyone else ever! Actually, I am in total agreement with Lex on this one. What does any woman who relies on these stupid cliche's have to offer in terms of intelligence or originality? In the end, these might be all the qualities that are left. Even the best looking woman begins to sag and wrinkle with time, so she better have something more worthwhile than a cute face to offer if she is looking for long-term. That's really my point -- if she can't write anything better than that -- if she can't write anything even remotely engaging or original at all -- why should I waste my time? Yet, about 98% of all the profiles I read are just that vapid and empty. Well, I've been here for couple months now and I am willing to give people more benefit of the doubt than you do, I suspect. In reality people are generally more intelligent in their respective niche, they just don't apply themselves to such a degree as would say.. a Psychologist who studies the nitty gritty and mechanics of presentation so closely. I also think it is possible for women to be a little -too- smart, and that is something to consider when trying to get a clear picture of what our leagues truly are. |

Well, I've been here for couple months now and I am willing to give people more benefit of the doubt than you do, I suspect. Understandable -- I've been scarred for life by the sheer, overwhelming level of vapidity! It's like suddenly there's no oxygen anymore.... I'm not even suggesting that my interpretation is the right one -- hell, if that was the case, there would be a literacy requirement and several months of testing before anyone would be allowed near a computer! In reality people are generally more intelligent in their respective niche, they just don't apply themselves to such a degree as would say.. a Psychologist who studies the nitty gritty and mechanics of presentation so closely. Yeah, that's a good point. I can relate to that, because I studied psychology for seven years and I think it does make you more analytical of certain aspects of people's behaviors -- such as, what they write. I also think it is possible for women to be a little -too- smart, and that is something to consider when trying to get a clear picture of what our leagues truly are. Too smart for dating sites, undoubtedly. I have a few friends on here who definitely qualify on that count. |

I think he was referring to them as one-liners in peoples profile, not just mentioned along with everything else they might enjoy.

I do. That and "axolotl." And the phrase "the noble stegosaurus." And "Ceterum censeo Carthaginem esse delendam" in Latin. It's some kind of mental disorder. |

Carthago delenda est (English: "Carthage must be destroyed") or the fuller Ceterum censeo Carthaginem esse delendam or also Ceterum autem censeo, Carthaginem esse delendam (English: "Furthermore, I think Carthage must be destroyed") are Latin phrases, clarion calls in the Roman Republic which came in the latter years of the Punic Wars. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carthago_delenda_est Gotta love wiki. I dunno about it being a mental disorder though. |

Wow, I guess you think this whole topic is about you huh?

If somebody enjoys "the beach", that's fine. That's their own business. Just don't expect me to be anywhere near it.
Rare is the profile from a woman that states they get off on going to the recording studio to lay down some tracks of the kick-ass new rocker they wrote. |

when they do not even take the time to answer the check boxes Oh yeah. Especially regarding marital status. Misspellings and poor grammar are biggies as well.  Or ones that go on and on and on.
Would also add long lyrics from songs. |
