Astounded by the amt of perverts on here...
Posted: 10/27/2009 1:54:01 PM
Seriously. What is the deal? Why are 7 out of 10 messages just plain filthy... or innocuous but once you get to talking to the guy he does something unacceptable like send you a pic of his member or proposition you. I'm really tired of cussing them out. I just delete.... delete.... delete....delete... delete.... my block list is unbelievably long.

WTH. This is lowering my opinion of men in general and I can't help it. I try focusing on the fact there are decent guys out there but its really disheartening it seems like they are VASTLY outnumbered by losers and creeps.

Some say paid sites are better but I'm not sure... Who is to say its not the same guys just with the money to spend on thier mission to gross out women.

Has anyone else found this to be the case?

I'm thinking this whole is making me really jaded!

I think there should be a feature that shows you how many times that person has been blocked... or if reporting them does any damn good... (it doesn't it seems!)

Hey Tuff, I've been incredibly lucky and 99% of the messages I've received from men here have been very gentlemanly and polite. I've had a couple youngin's (under 26) write crude things to me and I simply lectured them like any mother would and they ended up apologizing to me! LOL

I think because I'm ancient it doesn't really happen to me nearly as much as it does to the younger gals. In either event, it's always the mouth-breathing troglodytes like this that ruin it for the good ones out there.

Yes Tuff I know this to be the case ~every woman I`ve met from here told me she had alot of problems with the same things you have and to tell you the truth I dont understand the urge to harrass women in that way.
Very sorry to see you`re getting that same treatment too :(

I am with landra...never had it happen to me...

Maybe you should consider reviewing and modifying your profile to a more meaningful purpose! Perhaps the guys are not taking you too serious...

Good Luck!

I've never received such messages either.

Like Landra said, I, too, have found the men here to be polite and mannerly.

Sorry about you're experiences. That really sucks.

TuffLuv1984,

Fortunately I have been lucky. I have not received unacceptable email, and the gentlemen that I have met on this site have been respectful, with a few becoming very good aquaintances.

I'm wondering exactly what a person has to do to get the filth ridden messages. I'm sure that there are a lot of guys wondering how they can up their odds too...

Really, you ladies that keep getting these have to share your secret with the rest of us...

OP, yep I've received some nasty and disgusting initial emails.

Report them if necessary, block, and delete.

^^^ I'm kinda curious too Lint Spotter, cause I've never received a penii picture here on POF either.

OP, just chalk it up to a weeding-out tool, and be thankful they umm...errr...revealed themselves that quickly.

I like hummus too. I eat it with crackers or straight off my finger. Like too bake it on fish. I thought this was a Jewish food but I'm told it's middle eastern in origin. But there is something about the name 'hummus' that has a decidedly sexual tone to it. Don't know what it is.

And no, I have not gotten what you have described. I wouldn't mind a couple penis pictures every now and then. Could lighten up an otherwise boring inbox.

I said a couple. I don't want my inbox blowing with with penees. Men love to show off their penees.

->three xxx rated 'penii' pictures I've got so far. I didn't take it personally though.
I just thought they were really proud of their willies...so good for them LOL

lol, tuff luv, you got to understand this is the internet, of course there are going to be alot creeps on here, people come on the net and create whole different lives on this thing, but honestly you can't let the creeps stop you from doing what you came here to do and find a mate, just be patient and ignore the creeps.

Protest to POF to have words such as sex etc...to automatically stop messages from being sent, it's a very simple program to install....wait a minute then I wouldn't be able send or receive any messages, cancel last lol....

Yup it happens on here, but I would say most of the time its peeps under 18 looking for some entertainment...

There's an option on your email inbox, it's right next to the yellow "delete selected" button at the end of your email list.

Click HERE to limit who can message you

It's a very hard to see line -- but it's there. At least you can check the boxes of the types of email/profiles that you want BLOCKED so they cannot message you.

Good luck, Lysa

Tuffluv, I did in my younger days... However as I got older, and realized that some of the hound dogs I was talking to, were headed that way in the first chat, I had to figure out what I said to get them to think I wanted them to behave that way...

For me, I was a medical professional, so no topic was off limits, because I thought in a very clinical terms... These hound dogs on the other hand took it as a come on and a I want nsa sex...

You are in the age group that gets hammered with every age group of men, and men have discovered the net to be a wealth of behaving ALMOST as bad as they want... I have the feeling these type don't think of you as a person, but rather an opportunity to score for free, and that is all they see...

Take a look at your boundaries, and see if you innocently give off the impression that you may REMOTELY be sexually interested in these guys. If the way you talk, write falls into their web of sex ideas...

You also will get better at seeing men who are on the web just to score, or internet score, I guess what ever gets them off... Try not to let this get you to jaded, then you won't attract anything worth while... JMHO

I get them, A LOT.
From what I hear from some guys, the women are just as bad.
Maybe it's where I'm from. Maybe it's because I'm not looking so guys figure they have nothing to lose. Who knows.
But I must say, I thought you ladies who have never received a filthy email were joking!

i too get an enormous amount of suggestive email...the majority express their amazement at my incredible beauty but there is alot of sexual propositions....yes some of the suggestive ones are over the top...i just look at it as an education...i really did not know men were like this but i accept it now...we are all big girls ...we should be able to handle it...pof has always had a sick quality to it....that is its appeal...

send you a pic of his member


I've never recvd this!!!


On a serious note: I looked at your profile, and I'm not sure why you're getting messages of that caliber. You're profile does not appear to be a "magnet" for pervs, but WTF do I know..........about pervs?! lol

I've never recvd such emails. Wait, I actually did get 1 one time from an older man who happened to read a post of mine in the Sex & Dating forums. lol Then he felt the need to ask me if we both could masturbate for one another.

I just hit delete/blocked his sorry ass. I've come to realize that the Net is going to attract all kinds of characters, so I don't take things personally.

Don't allow those few to make you jaded. It must sux to be them!

Oh my.. Where do I start..

Ok.. it's a FREE forum. You get what you are paying for

1st. The internet creates anonymity. It allows people to DO things they'd NEVER think of doing out in the world.

2nd, your age pool is made UP of generally infantile BOYS with a license to drink..

3rd.. you'll start seeing a better class of men when you are in your 30's

4th.. Make sure that you arent confusing sexual with filth. If you view sexual comeons as "filthy" you shouldnt be on an online site.. but in church where the other rigid moralists are.
