"What is the best way to talk about them, is it breasts boobs or tits" I prefer boobs. Hate the word tits | |||

"Personally there is a real confidence in your pictures that is sexier than... " ? Yes I have gained confidence by taking and posting them. Doesn't answer the question though? Most men will assume I post the photos to titillate them and gain attention. | |||

"I don’t really think to be honest. It’s just what happens on here. I just delete and move on. I don’t even open most of them. I can tell by the first line if I want to open it. " Oh I don't reply to those kinds of messages. A man who writes that to me to start isn't someone I would be interested in. | |||

"Why do people post attractive pictures of themselves if they don't want people to find them appealing?" That's not what I said. I said I don't take/post photos of me for other people. I post them for ME. If other people find them appealing, ok. They don't need to tell me they've wanker over my pics though. | |||

"Thing is when you send something like this you think you're the first person sending it and the person 'on a sex site' receiving it would be happy to get it. Its a bit like "nice cock", "nice figure", "nice bod", "nice arse". I suppose if you don't want people commenting on your tits, cock, abs, other don't show em. " Yes the same number of people who think "how're you" is original, I guess! Well that's your perspective, and I guess a lot of people agree. But let's turn it around - men show their cocks quite a bit - do women send lots of similar messages? I've never. | |||

Unless you're suggesting that seeing a pair of tits turns people into zombies who can't help themselves sending a shit message." I think you’ve missed the point that a “shit message” is person dependant. It’s an opinion not a fact If someone messages me saying “great cheeks” I’d be thrilled! Should be tell everyone not to send those messages because it upsets some? Even though it would make mine and many other peoples day? | |||

"I get a lot of these messages, I just feel they don't really know how to start a conversation, and it's all fine because I just think we're not compatible and I move on." That echoes my opinion. When my profile says I value good conversation and I get "nice tits" - it's fairly obvious we are not a match! | |||

It certainly doesn't seem a great approach if you actually want to have sex as some women are clearly not keen on those types of message. I don't think they're respectful BUT that's my interpretation. | |||

"I think it's a reasonable assumption to make that anybody displaying less than chaste pictures of themselves on a website that was primarily designed to enable sexual liaisons will be open to advances of a sexual nature. The fact that some people may not like the way that some of those advances are worded, or don't wish to receive them from some people is an inevitable part of having a profile in the public domain...I don't like some of the emails that I receive (bloody people asking me to pay bills! Arseholes ), but to a certain extent I control who has my email address. I think messages like the examples given are perfectly acceptable, they're not abusive, they just don't suit personal tastes.

Btw I don’t think it’s makes your profile negative either If anything, the more info a profile I see the better. It’s a huge green flag to me when someone’s knows what they want, what they don’t, and communicate that Once that’s on your profile, any messages like that are 100% dick moves. Not reading the profile isn’t an excuse, because messaging without checking the profile = dick move too | |||

"Well, precisely. If you wouldn't go up to a woman in a bar and comment on her boobs, why message her? But apparently being on this site means it's ok somehow. " We’re not in bar, we are on a site focused around adults having sex with one another. And on that site you publicly post photos that could be described as revealing or even provocative. What is the reason behind posting such photos and, what do you want to achieve by doing so? It is not an unreasonable assumption by those contacting you that you’ve posted such photos to attract others to you and your profile. While their language and directness may not be to your taste, their style of compliment if nothing else can assist you in filtering those with whom you choose to engage. Profiles are like brochures, or as those involved in sales will recognise the term “trading statement”. Your profile is your brand. You can position your brand to your target audience. Perhaps now is the time for a change? Nothing above however negates the fact that everyone on here should be treated respectfully, regardless of how the are perceived by their profile, and clearly this hasn’t been the case for the OP. We are always curious if guys get any worthwhile responses from the message type eluded to by the OP. | |||

" You have clearly brought it on yourself. But only because you are assuming that others share your thoughts, morals and intelligence. Sadly on a social media platform and one for swingers there are a huge number of anonymous viewers of your profile that have nothing to lose by sending unimaginative messages. The advice I was given when I first signed up for online dating a few years back: Develop a thick skin and fast Never take offence Never rise to a negative comment Only believe a fraction of what you read. Block & move on is the usual advice but that could become a full time job! Chin up OP, and ‘chest out’. Sorry but couldn’t resist. | |||

You're on a sex site (yes, yes swingers site I know but the main thrust of swinging is sex). A free sex site to boot and regardless of why you post your pictures, they are titillating to men who have come in search of titillation. Messages like that are inevitable and not unreasonable IMHO. The builder analogy doesn't work either. Yes you post your pictures to make you feel goof but also to entice people and invite them to click on your profile. | |||

The site provides tools for us all to tailor our experience on here, and nobody is forcing anyone to display naked pictures of themselves. I like when you reply to threads before I do Lily, it so often means I can just say "you took the words right out of my brain" Posh " Aww shucks...wish you'd got in first though, it would have saved me a lot of typing I miss Gemini Man for that...he's saved my fingers a lot of work in the past | |||

"So, the disrespectful people are cool, but those looking for something where they're viewed as a human being are in the wrong place? It isn't disrespectful to talk about shoes in the shoe shop. Some might argue it's rude to ignore them. If you're getting angry about all the shoes surrounding you. Or even just angry because you don't like some of the shoes. Or you don't like the way some people in the shoe shop talk about shoes. You can choose to find another shoe shop. Or have a think about whether you really want shoes." | |||

"If being spoken to like that is something you dislike, then mention it first thing on your profile. I can't be offended at comments like that because I am on a sex website and I'm putting explicit pictures out there for strangers to view. I think you'd have to be quite foolish to think nobody is looking at them and having a wank or getting turned on. I feel the same when people complain about messages asking for sex. You're on an adult website where most people sign up to seek a sexual partner. If you're not making this incredibly well known through your profile, then it's not something I understand when you complain. If it was somewhere like Facebook then yes, I'd completely agree and it isn't appropriate at all. But somewhere like this I don't understand the mindset of having explicit pictures and expecting people to not feel a certain way. " | |||

"We’re not in bar, we are on a site focused around adults having sex with one another. And on that site you publicly post photos that could be described as revealing or even provocative. What is the reason behind posting such photos and, what do you want to achieve by doing so? It is not an unreasonable assumption by those contacting you that you’ve posted such photos to attract others to you and your profile. While their language and directness may not be to your taste, their style of compliment if nothing else can assist you in filtering those with whom you choose to engage. Profiles are like brochures, or as those involved in sales will recognise the term “trading statement”. Your profile is your brand. You can position your brand to your target audience. Perhaps now is the time for a change? Nothing above however negates the fact that everyone on here should be treated respectfully, regardless of how the are perceived by their profile, and clearly this hasn’t been the case for the OP. We are always curious if guys get any worthwhile responses from the message type eluded to by the OP." Exactly this! If you were taking photos for your own enjoyment, they'd be on your own phone/cloud storage. Posting photos on here is to let others see them. Some people will post photos to enjoy some exhibitionism and get fabs/likes, others will post just to give a (literal) picture of themselves so anyone wanting to interact has an idea of what they look like (or are into). As with everything, some people will enjoy crude/dirty talk, others will hate it. Some love a polite, non-sexual intro message, others will wonder why they're wasting time telling you about their day and just want to know if the want a threesome or not! Messages/profiles will either attract you to interact or put you off and that part is within your control. I delete any that don't have the right attitude/profile that I like/find interesting and respond to those who do. No point trying to tell people to behave a certain way as then your preference filter ends up tricked and wasting each other's time! | |||

"I would delete and block if I got a message like that x I delete the nice tits ones. Delete and block any wanking ones. But I will add something to my profile saying that's what I am doing. Btw I don’t think it’s makes your profile negative either If anything, the more info a profile I see the better. It’s a huge green flag to me when someone’s knows what they want, what they don’t, and communicate that Once that’s on your profile, any messages like that are 100% dick moves. Not reading the profile isn’t an excuse, because messaging without checking the profile = dick move too " I didn't particularly want a profile filled with "I will block if...". I did that when I joined and I don't like it. But I will add something to be clearer and then there's no come back as well. | |||

"Seems like going to a shoe shop and getting angry because they try to sell you shoes. If you don't like conversations about shoes, don't go in the shoe shop. In a shoe shop, the salesperson would at least be polite whilst trying to sell you the shoes. You'd soon walk back out empty handed if they were Al Bundy I'll bet there's a market for that. Maybe some people just need a different shoe shop. So, the disrespectful people are cool, but those looking for something where they're viewed as a human being are in the wrong place?

Eg "Hi, your tits are amazing. You make me so hard". These messages make me feel like an object but have I brought it on myself or is it reasonable to be treated like a person? You have clearly brought it on yourself. But only because you are assuming that others share your thoughts, morals and intelligence. Sadly on a social media platform and one for swingers there are a huge number of anonymous viewers of your profile that have nothing to lose by sending unimaginative messages. The advice I was given when I first signed up for online dating a few years back: Develop a thick skin and fast Never take offence Never rise to a negative comment Only believe a fraction of what you read. Block & move on is the usual advice but that could become a full time job! Chin up OP, and ‘chest out’. Sorry but couldn’t resist." I guess that's what some people think. I bring those messages on myself. Fair enough, But if the point is to get a response from me or sex - it won't work. I don't assume others are the same as me - that's why I started the thread! | |||

"This reminds me of the time I was out with my dog at the dog park. People complimented my dog, because he’s a beautiful dog, and we were at the dog park, amongst other beautiful dogs but he clearly made an impression. So although I like that he stood out amongst the other dogs I couldn’t believe people reduced him to just a dog, he’s my best friend, not just a dog. This is like that, but with boobs. If I didn’t want my dog to be complimented I’d have taken him to a cat park. " A good analogy. Very true | |||

"On here it's to be expected, a compliment is a compliment regardless of how it's worded. Yes some are not to personal taste but, you can't please everyone. I can send a "wow your fit" to two men and one will appreciate it one will not. It is what it is That's what I was asking! Thanks, Compersion. I do get what I would consider actual compliments as well and I reply to those. But "nice tits" is a crappy way to start a conversation and lazy." OP can you give an example of a compliment that is respectful and considers you as a person? I'm willing to bet it is no less objectifying than "nice tits", it is literally "nice tits" but swathed in some culture & education & creative writing. So in my view... the nice tits comments are not necessarily rude as they are honest. They are also the lowest common denominator of course it's your prerogative if that's not the level you want to engage at. Putting some caveats back on your profile is an excellent idea, then you'll know that whoever chose to send you such comments has not bothered reading or has actively chosen to ignore your preferences. I sympathise with you as the volume of these comments can get relentless and it's a cumulative effect, I usually delete my single fem accounts at the 7momth mark. I also agree with you that the men who tell you they're wanking on your pics are rude and out of line, that is only acceptable if the profile welcomes it. But the throwaway body parts compliments are just a kneejerk (cockjerk???) reaction to frankly some spectacular boobage | |||

"I think it’s reasonable to send. It’s not out rightly offence or abusive and many would just accept it as a compliment Just because you don’t doesn’t make it universally true Unless you’ve stated in your profile you don’t like that stuff. If you have then use, it’s rude and uncalled for But very few men read my profile and I didn't want to make it really negative. But I guess if I did add that proviso I'd feel more comfortable. I know other people don't feel as I do, that's why posted. I can't imagine that I'd send a message to a bloke and say fab cock in my first message though. In my book that's rude. " You've hit the nail on the head men see the visual and don't read the text In an ideal world that wouldn't happen but the reality is that many are on here simply for what they believe is easy sex & they seem to think comments like that will get them meets They'll be the same ones posting in the forums that they can't get meets It's a difficult one as I'd say unless you block all men from messaging you, it's just something you've got to accept from the site. | |||

Ok so I should set out my shop so it's clear I'm a classy girl who wants classy messages even if I have my spectacular boobage out? I can do that!

"I think both. The site is full of sex pics, sex reviews, sex menus of what the person offers or wants. It's hardly conducive to chats about the weather. Some people like the "nice tits luv" first message and some don't. Makes it easy to reject instantly ... or invite for a fuck. How do you take it? Your coffee that is! " I only do coffee chat with people I'm meeting. | |||

"I think it's a reasonable assumption to make that anybody displaying less than chaste pictures of themselves on a website that was primarily designed to enable sexual liaisons will be open to advances of a sexual nature. The fact that some people may not like the way that some of those advances are worded, or don't wish to receive them from some people is an inevitable part of having a profile in the public domain...I don't like some of the emails that I receive (bloody people asking me to pay bills! Arseholes ), but to a certain extent I control who has my email address. I think messages like the examples given are perfectly acceptable, they're not abusive, they just don't suit personal tastes. The site provides tools for us all to tailor our experience on here, and nobody is forcing anyone to display naked pictures of themselves. I like when you reply to threads before I do Lily, it so often means I can just say "you took the words right out of my brain" Posh Aww shucks...wish you'd got in first though, it would have saved me a lot of typing I miss Gemini Man for that...he's saved my fingers a lot of work in the past " Sorry.....

"What do we think of these as first messages? My photos do show my breasts admittedly - does that mean it's understandable/acceptable that I get a lot of messages commenting on them? Eg "Hi, your tits are amazing. You make me so hard". These messages make me feel like an object but have I brought it on myself or is it reasonable to be treated like a person? " You do have amazing breasts, I must admit I might be one of those men who who say that, so I apologise if that makes you feel like an object. I wouldn't initially msg someone just to say they make me horny or get me hard, which to me is a bit crass, but I like to compliment ppl and make them feel nice.thats the intention anywat You look amazing, in my opinion not just your breasts all of you. | |||

"Why do people post attractive pictures of themselves if they don't want people to find them appealing?" True but there's a way to express your appreciation rather than "great tits" I'm sure op wouldn't mind so much if there was other content as well as a remark about her boobs. Hi blah blah and btw you have a cracking figure is likely to get the sender a better response | |||

"If the salesperson got all up in your face, slapping you up the head with a pair of wellies despite you carrying a sign saying you're looking for a pair of flip flops, I'd say that was pretty disrespectful and not really having a conversation at all, and the person would not only be well within their rights to ignore, they'd also have a case to write a letter of complaint to head office. I'd never enter a shoe shop that sold wellies. I was following the shoe shop comparison until now. Is sending a message the same as getting in someone's face and hitting them on the head with wellies? Not entirely no, I'm just saying if you've taken steps to make it clear what you're in the shop for (on the site for) and the salesman doesn't respect your wishes, it's a bit of a slap in the face. If you weren't making it clear why you where there it wouldn't be that difficult to have a chat about it as long as it was done with consideration and respect. You may purchase some shoes, you may not, but you'd wish each other a lovely day and leave it at that.

An endemic born from a society unwilling to believe they contribute to problems and take responsibility for how their behaviour impacts others." I'd categorise those who send "nice tits" as just somewhat thoughtless and lazy rather than anything else. I've challenged guys about it and their cock avatars and they hadn't even thought about the effect on women. It's a compliment and they think women want to see their cock. Sending "wanking over you" messages is taking it further and I think that is really disrespectful. | |||

"I think it’s reasonable to send. It’s not out rightly offence or abusive and many would just accept it as a compliment Just because you don’t doesn’t make it universally true Unless you’ve stated in your profile you don’t like that stuff. If you have then use, it’s rude and uncalled for But very few men read my profile and I didn't want to make it really negative. But I guess if I did add that proviso I'd feel more comfortable. I know other people don't feel as I do, that's why posted. I can't imagine that I'd send a message to a bloke and say fab cock in my first message though. In my book that's rude. You've hit the nail on the head men see the visual and don't read the text In an ideal world that wouldn't happen but the reality is that many are on here simply for what they believe is easy sex & they seem to think comments like that will get them meets They'll be the same ones posting in the forums that they can't get meets It's a difficult one as I'd say unless you block all men from messaging you, it's just something you've got to accept from the site. " Yes absolutely fair | |||

"What is the best way to talk about them, is it breasts boobs or tits" I've often wondered how to compliment these in a way that isn't pervy or sexual. You can compliment 'nice shoes, you look great in that dress, you did really well on that last bit etc etc' But when someone has a real amazing bum, great boobs, but you don't want to say anything comes across sleazy. Hi, can I just say your..... Bottom/derriere is really quite lovely in those jeans today....... Erm | |||

"For me, I expect it because it's the nature of the site. But those kinds of messages that lead with overly sexual compliments on my body, or overly descriptive fetishes, I will pass by. Nature of the site for sure. There's ways to compliment, but also ways to come across as sleazy rude to. Has to be done the right way is all I like to connect on a human level first. People that send those messages seem to think it's an Argos catalog of done inside five mins " | |||

If I message a man I don't tend to say anything about their body but perhaps I should. I'd tie it in with other things though. Not just one line. | |||

"Why do people post attractive pictures of themselves if they don't want people to find them appealing? That's not what I said. I said I don't take/post photos of me for other people. I post them for ME. If other people find them appealing, ok. They don't need to tell me they've wanker over my pics though. " What do you mean by "I post them for me"? I mean if you didn't want other people to see them make them private. If you want others to see them how is it for you? Or is it the case that you want to be in control of how people react to you, that you want a specific type of reaction to make you feel good? It's a free world. People will react to your photos in whatever way they want to. You have a choice, ignore responses you don't like or stop doing the things that get those responses. What you cannot control is how people react and how they think. It's not illegal to say 'nice tits' any more than it's illegal to say nice smile - especially as you have publicly displayed your breasts. Would I/we respond to such a first message? Highly unlikely. Would we expect other people to text to us in the ways we proscribe? No, not at all. Mr | |||
