how would you react to crude and offensive emails?
Posted: 4/21/2009 10:37:22 PM
decided some time ago to hide my profile on the dating bit. Kept getting Milfed and boganed and I realised that I prefered being a twit on the Forums..can go out and get milfed and boganed at the weekend and not waste possible intellectual stimulation via internet. Have to say not had one nasty email...though someone once asked if I listened to myself? Embarrassingly I do, poor man, was just trying to explain why his deep myopic love of heavy head banging music revealed a psyche probably not compatable to mine....and he spat the dummy...pmsl

very occasionally I put the profile up for five minutes just to see.....nope...milfed and boganed again....I give up...does no one read the profile beyond the picture..need to put up more honest wrinkly, eyebagged pic.

Greyingred - I too hid my profile some time ago but unlike you I have had an abusive email. A guy emailed me to say that I was wasting everybodys time by being 'not single/not looking' and that if I wanted a date with him I would have to beg.

Boy, did I get excited! I fired off a quick response begging him for a date but no luck.

It's so annoying when people make promises that they have no intention of honouring. 8-(

its not fair, i would like a crude message too!


never had one.. and probably will never get one.. think it must be the halo on the letterbox.. or maybe the fact that one may somehow know that I wouldnt react.... better to ignore and move on and leave the poor bum with his own issues

Ooh - I got a good one tonight! It goes:

"um my penis is fairly long and thick.im from africa and have a cam where i would be willing to let u have a peek.
addd me "

So girls, if you need a peek, I've got his hotmail address... just message me

How do I personally handle messages like this? Usually ignore, but sometimes I like to write back and sort of torture them a bit...

Try to be understanding. They might be immortals who are sooooo bored that they decided to insult everyone in the universe in alphabetic order. (Douglas Adams fans will understand.) Actually I don't get near as many as I used to. Perhaps they've done the "N's".

When I do... I read them and then...nothing. I don't reply. I don't even expend the energy to delete them. Cos I don't actually care. Sometimes I spend 2.3 seconds wondering why they actually think I might.

Coming to think of it, Naamah has abused me in the past.

Only cos you like it. And might I remind you that your last 2 invoices are unpaid. *taps foot impatiently*

She likes to pick on the innocent and helpless of the gentile gender and put the fear of God into them.

Fear of what??? Anyway, thanks for helping keep my evil reputation afloat. It actually helps ensure I don't get as many rude or offensive emails from any nutters, when quite clearly I can out-nutter them... and de-nutter them too if need be.

With that new pic? I'd say your crude message quota is gonna triple now. Whoa girl - you is HOT!

*inferring that I have lesbian tendancies - just my way of tripling my incoming crude messages.

^^^ *blushes* Went bush-walking today with a friend, and he took a million pics.

But now your post reminded me. A while back I had an email from this 18 year old girl. Not offensive...but at the time I thought odd, and now I know was some sort of scam.

Initially she said she'd filled in the search incorrectly, women came up and she saw me and just wanted to tell me I was beautiful. I wrote back and said thanks, and so are you. She wrote back and said that she didn't think she was. So I got all big-sisterly and replied that all us women are too critical of ourselves and reassured her that she was indeed beautiful, and wished her all the best. I thought that was it... but she wrote back again. And each time she replied she was attaching these photos that weren't on her profile, that were getting increasingly...erm...suggestive, in a Lolita kind of way. And a couple of things she said could have been interpreted in two ways.

So I showed a couple of male friends the messages and pics, and asked them...ummm, is she hitting on me??? They were seething with jealousy, but one sensible one said that maybe she didn't realise that the pics were suggestive. (short skirts with knees apart...leaning over and exposing cleavage) Anyway, I kept trying to be polite in case she was just a total innocent...and eventually she offered me her msn address. At that point I stopped replying, cos certainly nobody takes an incidental/accidental communication that far and I figured there was more to it. But I still assumed she was a real person at that point and did not wish to embarrass her...and I would never have mentioned it on forum except...

Last week, one of the male friends I had showed sent me a link to a website he found that had this same young girl's pics on it. It was a porn site. (Apparently he was researching taxation law and a computer glitch caused a teen-porn site to come up instead, much to his complete horror and disgust.) And there she was, in the same skimpy outfits but showing waaaaay more skin. Of course the real her doesn't even live in Brisbane. I have no idea if "she" was working up to scamming me somehow with regards to some type of sympathy/money scam (if so...pffft, my profile says I am a Nigerian email scammer and you can't scam a scammer, honey), or if it was just some loser trying to see if I was a closet 'lezzo' for his/her own amusement (if so...for next time, I like my women blonde and busty thanks).

Seriously though, thought it was all a bit weird at the time, but now I know it was some kinda scam it makes more sense. And I guess I am not a chick-magnet after all.

Bang goes my fantasy of chicken feathers and avocado sex. Maybe she was the thief who stole your jar and was hoping to get more.

Yep and its tempted me a few times to want to delete my profile. Its really unfair especially when you go out of your way to dress reasonably modest and classy. What do you have to do dress neck to knee lol.

So I can totally relate to what your saying. I think most of these people are probably deep down insecure and have no idea how to relate to a woman other than in a sexual demeaning way and most are probably mysoginists. Just laugh at it that because they really are sad and lacking in any real morals.

I used to fire back but I think that is what these sad people want. Now I tend to just send a polite "Thanks, take care" or just ignore them completely and I very rarely get a second one from them.

I think nasty emails and nasty posts on the forums for that matter are best dealt with in the same way to be honest. The people who do it tend to be pathetic, attention seekers with little or no self esteem and limited people skills, ignoring them is the best way of dealing with them.

Its rotten to have your emails ignored so why bother giving them what they want!

Sometimes women complain on these types of threads about the tone of the emails they are receiving being unwontedly crude and sexual in nature, and when you check out their profile they have very sexy pics. Not just that they're naturally goodlooking or have a nice smile but their poses are consciously sexy.

Since I've been here long enough to have seen this happen a few times it is also common that they just think they look 'very nice'.

Is this just being naive? Is it a game where you bait the hook and then complain about the fish you catch? In some cases it has to be attention seeking.

Anyway you still get the odd crude email no matter what. I just ignore 'em.

I have no idea about why people do it, in fact I have trouble understanding why people do a lot of things.

To some I think its the fact that the forget there is a real person with feelings, behind the picture they see, or they just dont care, or the think that everyone should just be falling at their feet because they are just such a "nice guy".

One of the things I dont agree with is that if a woman has "sexy pics' that they are asking for it.( no im not having a shot at you dime a dozen). I can be crude but i tend to leave that for those moments that a light whisper in the ear....oh.

I sometimes poke a little fun sometimes on the forum at people I like, but I do draw the line at being offensive. I think being a guy if I ever received one I would probably laugh at it, but I do think that its better to just ignore it, and I would possibly suggest reporting it depending on what was said because like in a lot of things you never know what they are going to do next, and POF would probably be better off with them not on the site. That type of behaviour seems a little predatory to me.

I think it depends on the context.
Some women place messages in their profile explaining to do not wish to recieve offensive emails.
