    Well maybe your profile sucks or your messages were not so good. Or maybe I'm not as picky. Who know's. There's too many variables.

    My profile is fine, my messages were fine and I was not picky.

    But you have to admit that maybe it is the same for both men and women getting replies on line. It is not any easier for women!!!

    Well I think its easier for attractive women. Obviously a good looking woman with nice photos is going to get more responses than an unattractive girl with just one photo of her in a crowd.

    And the same goes for guys. I sure it's easier for good looking guys than it is for unattractive guys.

    Take it to PM lads :p

    Got a mail on POF, the first in a while actually. Although I'm not quite sure why someone would think harping on about how bad their exes were would be a good way to start a conversation with me...

    Shy, would not be one of my traits. I am not top model but I am not pig ugly (I hope)

    A few things I forgot to ask, how old are you? What age group were you targeting, and last but not least...do you have any provocative photos on your profile? All of these factors affect your success greatly! :D

    My age range would be 30 to 40. No, I have no provocative pictures, maybe thats were I am going wrong.

    Yes put up some pics of you in lingerie and I'll promise you'll get more responses. ;) You see my age range is 18-30. So again it wasn't really a fair test.

    Nah. If message numero uno is like that I dread not imagine what would be in store in the not too distant future. Plus I didn't fancy her either. No much point leading anyone on IMO.

    To be honest 'd say you're better off. Provocative pics will no doubt attract interest but whether or not it's the right kind of interest is another story altogether. Might be worth playing for quality of messages rather than sheer quantity.

    There is no way I would put up pics like that.

    Actually I remember seeing a girls profile on some site and her profile pic was her in her underwear.

    Her profile header "The pic is just for the craic, don't get the wrong idea..."

    Suuuuuuuure it is :cool:

    I saw one girls profile which had a pic of her in her underwear which was cropped at the neck, and it said, "My face is nice too, but seen as how so many lads have pics like this up, I thought I'd do the same."

    Or some girls like to upload a group photo without actually telling you which one she is, and you're just hoping she's the good looking one in the middle - instead she's the ugly one in the corner of the photo.
