the pigtails are done in such a way that make you look like a nutjob.
I don't think they could be done any other way.....over 50 years of age with pigtails looks nutty. | |

Posted: 8/4/2007 11:09:44 AM | | When they say pictures increase email by 5 times I think it is obvious that both men and women first look at the pictures to see if there is an attraction. It is a biological thing and not a superficial thing. From that point is the profile. Everyone is different in what they are looking for. Best advice is to have a friendly down to earth profile describing who you are. Use paragraphs and bold words to capture the highlights. Most of all be yourself. Personally i think writing anything about wanting sex in the profile is trashy. Lets be real we are all humans and have such cravings...it does not need advertised unless it is the only thing you are looking for. As far as telling guys not to contact you if thats all you are looking for....is just vanity....Guys who see sex as an object have no respect of your wishes...they will contact you anyhow. Just ignore them....so you delete the emails...unless you are getting 50 a day why sweat it. | |

Posted: 8/4/2007 11:11:11 AM | | in my opinion i think they look for an attractive woman,but women dont like being asked do they wear tights or hold ups or suspenders,this degrades a woman ,also it tells a woman they are only after one thing. its time men changed there tact,how they address a woman,im not saying all men are the same but there are a few out there that askes these questions .come on boys if you want a good woman in your life learn how to talk | |

Here is what I think... Almost everyone is 18 in their heart forever. This is what I have found to be true over and over through the years. Those pictures of you are really cute and imaginative. I don't think of them as being nutty but as being creative, imaginative and playful. God forbid we all show some of that instead of following the norm. Your new bill edited profile is direct and to the point. lol Good for you.
You go girl! I hope that you find what you are looking for. =)

Posted: 8/4/2007 12:30:35 PM | Ooh, science! Well, what Mr. Bill suggested might bring you men who are very much like him--but might also bring in many who zero in just on the promise of sex and see absolutely nothing else you've said. I've learned that it's best for me to be very subtle in mentioning anything sexual in my profile text--unless, of course, I want all the sex-only offers. Your mileage may vary.
Incidentally, my mother always called that hairstyle puppy-tails. I think she couldn't bear to associate the word "pig" with her daughters. Or maybe she had simply seen enough actual pig tails to know they're not fluffy.

Posted: 8/4/2007 12:37:33 PM | Ok, LOLOL! Good points, ALL.
Ok, I did a small alteration to allow for and excuse my um....young...? hair choices. Which, by the way, I would like to say are a result of having been raised by confused parents who thought I was a boy at birth (no, the body parts were correct...they were just very convinced that if they believed long enough that I was a boy, I would somehow magically BECOME one...) and dressed me as such til I turned about 18 and packed my camo clothes and army boots in a paper bag and left home. Then I found pink, and have never turned back! HAHAHHAHA Abuse has LASTING effects on children, never forget that!
I have changed the sex part....but have left it in because I feel Bill has a valid point. MANY marriages end because someone is "not gettin' any".... and the last thing the guy wants is another cold fish. I think that some of the other posters are right that there are just an abundance online that are wookin pa nub and thats about it. So I'll try to maintain a positive thought....and, believe it or not, just in this small time period? I have received my FIRST email contact...AND he didn't say nice rack! I have to say, he looks a LOT like Mr. Bill..........so perhaps there is definately some truth to what you say.......
BTW. You ladies are wonderful and supportive and I find the male AND female information about what attracts on profiles to be VERY informative! HUGS!!!!

Posted: 8/4/2007 12:43:18 PM | yeah, the sex thing was more of general suggestion.
Most men are turned of if there is anything in the profile that suggests that the woman thinks hers is "special". Silence is more than likely better than an overt statement either way. Saying something to the effect of "I am NOT looking for sex" can be interpreted to mean "I have a hang up about it and am on the defense." But letting a guy know that you aren't on the defense about it but you view it a certain way and as PART of a healthy relationship isn't I think a big deal. All I do on my profile is tell women that I won't allow it to be used as a tool to manipulate me. I figure it will keep away the ones who think that they are the only woman in the world I can have sex with or the ones who plan on making a big deal out of a pleasurable experience to be enjoyed. It isn't a big deal to me either way, I can have a good time w/ a woman without ever having to have sex at all. | |

Posted: 8/4/2007 4:12:58 PM | I never took my profile all that seriously. I've always had fun with it, even when I was unattached and available.
Let's face it most profiles written to "spec" are blandly generic and read pretty much the same. We're all wonderful, honest, family valued loving, kind, bright people who look for the same in a mate. 
Do profile reviews for a week, most just suffer from terminal genericness. I say, heck mix it up, have some fun with it. If you're entertaining yourself, chances are someone else will think it's a hoot, too. When I landed my prize catch...sheesh I had my psycho profile posted. It was literally the most far out off the wall insane thing I could think of. I had so much email, I took it down a short while later.
I've had fun changing my profile around for my own amusement. I'd suggest others do if they're up for it. I'm tempted to put the psycho one back up, I had so much fun with it.  | |

Posted: 8/4/2007 4:22:40 PM | It all depends on the man.
I like women with similar interests. So if a profile seems like the woman is a geek, or would like someone like me, I would pop a message off.
I also take into account when they say things like, "No guys under 5'9"" (even though the only people whose profiles say this in my area are shorter than me)... I ignore people who post overly provocative pictures on the grounds that if they're that desperate for attention I don't want them near me.... Anyone who mentions God or Jesus in their About Me, 'cause I know that that's not my type.... anyone who has pictures of their children as their main pic...
There's an entire 20 page post called "The Worst Profile Mistakes You've Seen" floating around somewhere that's just a list of all of the worst things you can do.... I'd get that one going again... | |

Posted: 8/4/2007 4:53:58 PM | Beth, I know you are looking for input on your profile, but I would like to go a different direction with this. If you ultimate goal is to meet a man, why not explore some of the wonderful places around Spokane where the men are. I go to your beautiful city every summer for a teaching project and have met some great people there. I notice that it is a very athletic city, with runners and walkers all over. I met several very nice men just walking through the downtown city park. I ate dinner alone at a nice restaurant and was "adopted" by two men at the next table. Lots of laughs and good conversation...that's all. But if I lived there, who knows what would have happened.
Regarding your profile, I think there are 2 things I would change. The dialog tends to be somewhat negative in the "I don't want..." That may give subliminal vibes to you being a negative personality. Men seem to be attracted to energetic and positive people. I think your photos are cute, but send off vibes of being sexually needy. That is a common perception of younger guys with us older women. Based on the advise of a good friend, I took off my more revealing photos, but will email them to a man who meets my other expectations. You may want to consider that also.
This is a very crazy way to meet people and it much different than the conventional way. You will learn a lot about others and yourself. At least I did.
Good luck. | |

Posted: 8/4/2007 4:54:18 PM | Bethlet...you are an attractive woman of how old ??? no offense here...but perhaps portraying the woman that you really are....rather than the girl that was many years ago would put you in the right direction.....class not crass....pigtails......ahhhh no.
Your age selection for men....younger than you...how about the ones older than you..appears that you are attempting to appeal to a younger crowd, nothing wrong with that, unless you are prepared to go out looking like your "flirty" self....
A woman of growth and substance is never afraid of her age......it took along time to get where you are now...be proud of it !!!!
If you are truly in touch with yourself spiritually, nothing will get in the way of what you wish to obtain. True grounding of one's self comes from within and cannot be obtained from others.
All the best......Cougrrrrrrr | |

Posted: 8/4/2007 5:26:41 PM | Bethlet, I like the pig tails. What can I say. Who says you have to act your age all of the time. Too bad we're at opposite ends of the country. Good luck to you.
