What's the difference? You're saying dating sites shouldn't allow profiles without pics yet you use Craigslist for dating but don't want to post a pic? You're contradicting yourself. And not trying to be mean but it seems the guys who aren't really attractive are the main ones who are adamant about a woman having pics up.



Defiantly not true. My friend is a very attractive lady and she started out with having a pic posted and her inbox was flooded with messages from creeps everyday and it became to much. She's not interested in being someone's eye candy which is why she's doing the on-line thing because most the men she attract in the real world only see that she's beautiful and that's not what she wants. Now that she doesn't have a pic posted she still gets messages but the difference is, these guys are really looking for someone to connect with and not trolling the profiles for hotties.
Well If i do rewspond to someone without a photo they better be attractive.

You can't search on EH either but people still pay for memberships. If you don't like the rules, don't sign up.

Attactiveness is subjective. What's not attractive to you will be attractive to someone else. YOUR attractiveness is what sets the standards not hers.

I know someone who has been a member of eharmony and they DO tell you everything before you sign up.

As for "may not be in your area," I believe you can indicate to eharmony how far is the furthest you are willing to travel to meet someone.

They do all the matching and they send you a handful of people they think you might get along with to choose from. You cannot search and pick someone to contact on your own.

You choose how far or near you want your matches to be. You do have some choice in how you're matched like if you want someone to share your same religious views, income level, age, and a couple more. The bases of the site is to discourage superficial people dating.

I've mentioned before that I don't even bother with the profiles without photos so in that sense I do agree with the TVSGMeister. I just don't think it's a big deal because most of the profiles do have photos so those are the ones I concentrate on. Women have raised legitimate issues as to why they might not want to put up a photo until they've developed a certain amount of trust with someone and then they'll send a photo to just that one person. If that works for them that's great, it's really nothing to make a fuss about.
