This is such a laugh. Here in the southeast, the biggest complaint I hear from men is that they want to be sure they can actually meet me. Women seem afraid to meet men and want to exchange messages forever. I think the message is, be prepared - anything goes.

Except they were mildly amusing.

So why don't you get a six pack and a German car?

And in other news, rain comes from clouds.

SERIOUSLY!! You needed to make a fake profile to prove what everyone already knows? Yes women care about a guy's appearance. They're as shallow as men but deny it because unlike men, women care how others perceive them.

I bet the Next thing this guy is gonna do is make a fake profile of a rich doctor to prove his ground-breaking hypothesis that women care about a guy's job and income too

hahaha! This is hilarious! So it's true, men really are Neanderthals? I'd dismissed that as mere rumor.

No, he's going to post a fake profile of someone who looks like Marilyn Monroe or Kim Kardashian in a bikini, to prove that some men will do anything to get sex. What a scientific breakthrough that "experiment" would be! LOL!

Said I "make a lot of money" and I "work hard and play hard." I like to hit up bars, and I like older women.

Been on for 30 minutes, here is what I found:

-I can message a girl out of the blue and say "whats your number?" and they give it to me
-I can message a girl and say "wanna hang out tonight?" and they say sure
-I have 2 girls sending my risque pictures already


Men (and probably women) who are looking for love on POF. I urge you to stop.

These women sending me sexually explicit messages are college educated, sometimes with Masters degrees. they have no provocative pics, and yet, they are sluts. Unbelieveable, can't trust anyone these days.

WOMEN ARE SHALLOW.
Interesting experiment. Whether the conclusion is accurate I'm not completely sure. I do know that my profile has gotten a lot of looks when I was on Plenty of Fish. No one did anything like that though. I probably came off lacking confidence or something. I sent messages to quite a few people too. even a girl who didn't have a car or a job. Nothing. Eventually, I just quit online dating. I've seen lots of complaints about the dating websites out there. Now I plan to try to actually go out and work on my social skills.

This article, Yahoo! Shine - Women's Lifestyle | Healthy Living and Fashion Blogs, is completely right. Its annoying when people ask you if you've ever tried online dating. I've been asked twice.

I've also been told that I'm lucky to be single. Yes I'm so lucky going to bed with no one to spend long hours of the night talking about my future or my dreams and goals. I'm so lucky that I don't have someone to be there to chase my worries away at least for a little while and to say everything's going to be alright...

Also, I've kind of been feeling like online dating isn't romantic enough for me. I think I'd like the old fashioned "Strangers in the Night" romance like what Frank Sinatra sings about. Or at least I'd like to get some kind of matchmaker who can work one-on-one with me and possibly introduce me to someone.

Sorry about the rant and getting off topic. Developing social skills is a much better use of your time than making profiles and hoping someone likes what they see. Not that online dating is completely bad. Its just not for everyone and its not the only option out there.

I think the caution for some ladies, and that's me, is we don't want to be on the next episode of "48 Hours Murder Mystery".

To the OP, anyone can create a gross profile and get sex and cheap thrills. Some of us on PoF are looking to find a meaningful relationship.

Have fun at other people's expense, it kinda' shows you are mean.

But he is hiding behind another person so it doesn't show he is mean at all

All it does is makes everyone more suspicious than they need to be.
