Closely followed by what are you doing up this early? Like people don't have jobs anymore.

They are likely desperate for a reply. Probably not had a reply in months and feel invisible.

Still annoying though.

There's polite and there's annoying.

They'll be the type of guy that asks if they can switch position during sex.

"what you looking for on here/what you into" (that's why I have a profile mate, so you already know what I'm looking for and don't have to ask this)

I guess it's a polite way of seeing if there is any interest. Bit lazy I think but, I imagine it might be because they find you attractive xx I'd take it as a compliment x

Yes! But then I wouldn't ask any questions as a first message. It should be more of an introduction

It's not a compliment when it's followed by a ridiculous sexual request...which it very often is

Why don't they just ask it in one message instead of trying to spread it over 2 in an attempt to keep the recipient engaged for a what will most likely be another generic question that wasn't worth the wait?

I said maybe they are new and whats attention getting for one woman may not be for another, i guess its all in the profile and pics as to whether he gets a reply obviously not from the Op shes had too many of that same question and maybe just comes to forums for a giggle i know i do

Perhaps we don’t want to have to spend alol our time telling men how to do things properly? When men ask advice we generally tell them to be themselves, if they aren’t what we are looking for we don’t want them pretending to be something else just to get laid.

I’ve always taken the approach that as long as I fall inside the parameters of someone’s profile then it’s ok to message them - but asking if it’s ok to ask always seems a little like just

Looking for an “in”

We’re all on the site, so why not make an approach.

As long as it’s polite and respectful there should be no problem even if the response comes as a no thanks.

couple, us we him her.

I asked a question on the forum about this a few years ago.

Why do so many guys ask the same question?

What I mean is: "can I ask you anything" isn't exactly a normal way to start a conversation and so many guys send the same message,so are they colluding with each other and discussing what questions they can ask women that are the most pointless and bland , annoying.

Coz they all do it seemingly independently of each other or is there a secret society meeting on a Tuesday night somewhere with a banal agenda?

Welcome to incel club, tonight’s topic is tedious questions and why women who say no are fat ugly bitches we didn’t want to fuck anyway.

I see it as a matter of conversational versus written norms - in conversation it might be more normal to create the space and ask for permission, whereas in text it's superfluous and annoying.

What I did find when I got unsolicited messages was that many people who started with "can I ask you a question?" often proceeded to ask things that made me reach for the brain bleach.
