Genuinely genuine real people seeking genuinely believe
Jump to: Newest in thread
I know I'm probably going to get some shots here for using the word genuine in my profile at times butt f****** hair balls. Are we overusing the word genuine and genuinely and real and normal and all these other f***** u* words in search of compatible partners on fab?
Given that the use of these words is probably a result of people feeling that they have chatted to less than genuine profiles, What's the alternative?  |

No, we're by far overusing the legal disclaimer which is worth shit, considering you signed up under the site's terms and conditions - as did everyone else. No need to repeat it. It clogs up servers and we all know how harmful data centers are  |

"Do people see profiles as genuine swingers if they only attend socials and don't have other type meets ? "
Perhaps they don't advertise every sexual encounter they have via verification |

I guess my point was, how do you know they're not having other types of meets. Those who don't see themselves as swingers are usually upfront about that being the case |

Disingenuous time wasters for having standards ... on a swing site of all places. Who'd have thought |

Im not on here very long about 6 months really even though I created my account 24 months ago
I find it very hard to chat with anyone worth while but I keep an open mind that the real people on here are very cautious and dont reply to anyone as it is full of madness. Id say most real and good people on here have their own groups for fun
Id just like to find a few nice people and see how it goes |

Its important to note the question wasn't about how people see themselves, rather how others interpret what they see. |

They are like many other words people use to describe themselves such as nice or kind or discreet.
If you are constantly having to remind people you have met how nice or genuine you are then obviously you are projecting a different image.
To random strangers who prefer to make those judgement calls themselves it can be off-putting and up there with trying to sell yourself as an alpha.

Genuine - genuine what though, or the word professional
The word professional irks me as o just think professional at what - your job? Giving oral? Been a player?
Labels are just labels- 99% of the time useless unless in a 50% off sale

I agree with the last post lol . Just don’t think too much on words or labels , want is ment for you won’t pass you, I’ve met a lot of genuine friendly flok on here. Don’t discourage or think too much into the labels . Don’t complain as no one listens and just enjoy the interactions and banter when it’s coming to you . |

I take "professional" to be a statement of class, i.e. "financially well off", with potential implications of "you should be too, or else know your place". |

Ah it's a bit of forum bingo.
I've no real issue with people using it. It doesn't make me think about them any differently. I'm wise enough(Though not very) to know because somebody writes it doesn't make it so. |

I think this is one of the words that's unfairly picked on.
I've chatted to plenty of people with professional in theor profile that were completely down to earth and unassuming. I think alot of people put it down as an indicator that they are serious about their careers which to me is a good thing.
It's one if those that I think is read into more but the people who feel targeted by it than the people who actually wrote it.

I didn't know that 'genuine' is now a label. 
I'm not really specific-word-allergic, I find the whole idea of describing yourself with adjectives or labels bit cringeworthy, subjective and obviously worthless.
Surely if I say on my profile I'm no bunny boiler, I must be no bunny boiler. |

That's a fair point. I should have specified I think the class implication is in the minority. |

I assume when someone says 'professional' that there is a class element to it. They mean someone who works in a job that would be a traditional desk, 9-5, would need some form of college education etc.
Woukd they view an electrician whonleft school at 16 as a 'professional? Probably not, would be my assumption anyway. |

On a broader note, as already mentioned, most labels are a waste of time in a profile they are completely subjective.
Genuine, professional, kind, good sense of humour, well hung.
Labels are generally a convenient(lazy) way of filling out a profile relatively quickly so one can quickly move on to the more enjoyable aspect of online dating/hookup sites, sending dick pictures. |

Snobbery,
Which in itself is also a generalisation, and relevant only to a personal perception of snobbery. Professional is obviously also a freaking electrician or plumber who gets paid to do it ....
Do it for free , amateur |

I agree with what may have said here. Regardless of what you read in a bio, you should be talking to the person to get a better picture of who they are, rather than going by what they specifically curated.
I don't particularly worry too much about what's in a bio because ultimately you don't have to meet them if you don't like them after chatting a bit. Sure, no shows are annoying but that's a risk regardless of what they said in their bio haha |

The general purpose of a label on a profile is to attract a certain type of person, or to put off a certain type of person.
Logically, if someone is looking for someone who is in paid employment, then why woukd they not just put that down? Or that you aren't interested in anyone who is unemployed? Using the word 'professional' to sum that situation up seems like they are leaving themselves open to misinterpretation. |
