Why is sex the number 1 priority?Page 1 of 1    
Hey my name is Suzzie, and my question is- Why is it that that majority of the guys who message me, or that I talk to, just want to have sex?

I have clearly stated that I am not the kind of person to just hook up in my profile, but I still get those kind of responces.

I don't understand why I get those kinds of messages from guys, and no genuinly nice ones?

Hello Suzzie, you may want to take another look at your profile photo.... you may think it depicts a 'shy' girl as you state in your profile but from where I am sitting it depicts quite a demure ... 'there's more to me than meets the eye' photo!

Hope that is helpful.

From my experience, all women here get hit up for sex.
As was said, they have nothing to lose by asking.

Maybe the reason you get no genuine contacts is that you have a lazy profile.

If you want someone genuine and interesting to contact you, then put some genuine effort into showing the guys that you're interesting.

Also, stop waiting for guys to contact you. YOU should be doing some of the work too.
Good luck.

I imagine most of the fellas that try to hit you up for sex probably didn't read your profile. I think a lot of that happens on here.

PoF, at least within my circle of people, has a rep for being, as they would put it "a site to pick up dirties".
I don't know how PoF could combat this. Maybe creating a sister site that is meant for easy hookups?

This was mentioned above as well; I believe it is worth re-mentioning.

OP, you're on an online dating site.


Get used to being asked for sex. I'm not saying it's right, just saying that it will happen not matter what you do.

This question has been done to death but I'm going to fill you in anyways.
No matter what you do, no matter what you say, how you present yourself, or what you ask of people, the same thing will always happen. It doesn't matter what ethnicity you are, what your religious beliefs are, or even whether or not you are at all physically attractive or interesting in the slightest. As long as you are female, you're going to get messages/hit on by guys who just want sex whether you want to or not.

It's a fact of life/the internet.




Also, gene theory.

It's a nearly empty profile. Were they supposed to ask the author how it is to 5'3" or how it is to be 23?

Anywhere from 50-75% of the guys on here are just looking for a hook-up. About 80% of them will just spam multiple girls for it. The other 20% will be sneaky about it and say anything to get it.

I made up those numbers, but based on what most of the girls on here say it must be somewhere close to true!

Like other people have said, your picture is giving off the "sexy time" vibe.

And the guys messaging you asking you for sex, are the kind of guys who don't read profiles.
All they do is look at your profile picture (which looks slightly provocative) and check the gender to make sure you're an actual female.

You just have to block and move on.
And if the guys messaging you aren't the ones you're interested in, then YOU message the guys you find appealing.
If you expect the guys to do all the work on this site, then those are the only messages you'll ever receive.

Hey sex is sex... every guy wants it and many pray on those who seem like there most likely to give it up with out too much resistance. Many guys see these online dating sites as an easy way to get some and/or an easy way to interact with a female to then try and get some. There are guys out there who are interested in actually finding a partner but ya gotta really search for em

P.S. Most guys don't read profiles or don't believe whats written on em with good reason... Everyone's hot shit behind a cpu screen lol

I never message for sex, I never turn conversations to sex, I never make sleazy remarks.
I get almost no replies. Go figure.

To most men online, "I'm not the type that hooks up" is to them you just playing hard to get.
Most men who have those intentions will see all words that refute your being "that way", in a sexual manner.

Just weed through the bad ones, and keep the good ones.

If you can't handle the requests, online dating isn't for you. I mean it goes for both genders, by the way. I just ignore the desperate messages, like I'm sure most on here do.

A lot of women are looking for hookups, too, so there is a built up expectation from most men, that most women on here will put out.

Take it as a compliment and ignore the requests you don't like, or you'll wind up like the jaded women on this website who's profiles almost sound like threats to men.

"I SWEAR, one more man asks me for SEX..."

And they always end their profiles with "I'm considered bubbly, and friendly" don't they?

I'm just saying....

I find it amazing how some women are turned off by the fact men are interested in sex. Even when we dont say it outright we are interested in sex

I'm not intending to be insulting but.the only reason men have ever talked to women is because they wanted to eventually have sex with them.It's human nature,it's what we are programmed genetically to do.

some guys ask because it's their policy to ask any woman within their attractiveness range.

others will ask because they understand there's very often a vast difference between what a woman's brain states, and what her body wants.
