From another thread it was said that the fab etiquette is that men message first.

Is this something? I've never seen it written before

Men just complain that if they stop messaging 1st then no messages would be sent

I don't think it's an expectation, just what usually happens.

That’s the standard everywhere

Men makes the move. Women receive

Guess it's just the nature of the fab beast judging by the f to m ratio

In the 1950's maybe, but surely this isn't still a thing?

I didn't get that memo.

I haven't messaged anyone first in over 4 years and my best friend and fwb messaged me first.

Every conversation I've had since January 2020 has been started by a woman messaging first.

In my mind it would be better if ladies did message first

Afterall they know who/what they seek far better than the words/description they provide in their profile

I have no problems making first contact but, admittedly, it would be nice if a lady made first contact.

Some may think it might make them look desperate or,dare I say it, a raging nymphomaniac. But it doesn't.

This is the year of the fruitbat and anything goes now..

Saying that, fellas, it does help if you have an interesting portfolio presence on the site.

Everyone, men and women, need to raise their game a little (or a lot).

Just my opinion of course

I used to message local randos first.

I don't do that now unless they have shown some interest in me.

I'll hit up a forumer first if I like their style

I've been messaging new men to the site who appear in my local updates feed.

I get very, very, very few replies!

It would disappoint me greatly if you had a penis. But not a dealbreaker.

It's OK, Pickle. There isn't even a micro-peen.

No, it's not. The best connections I've made have been where I've been more proactive. Said hey, I like you in more than a forum flirting only way, fancy a coffee?

I do have BDE though.

Women do message first. But only men they’re attracted to. That’s why lots of men think women don’t message first.

Definitely not in our case. I always message guys first if I like the look of their profile.

We’ve had messages off ladies first.

C sometimes sends messages to profiles - but it’s usually when she’s thirsty and then she’ll expect me to carry on chatting then

No I think it's just more common for them to message 1st I wouldn't say it's etiquette as such.

We've had 1st messages from women & couples as well as sent 1st messages to women and couples.

From my limited experience who messaged first had limited impact on whether you click with someone or not. I'd rather that a chance with someone I fancy rather than wait and hope. Or god forbid, wink

There’s no etiquette to it - men are just the ones doing more of the chasing.

Right… off to send a few more messages lol

I mean.....its not exactly rocket science is it?

Nobody messages people they're not attracted to surely?

Even men wouldn't do that.

Would they......?

We have had messages from all types on here, we only reply to those which take our fancy.

The only real etiquette for us is you have read our profile and it shows in the message

I've rarely received a first message, but it has happened - in fact the first lady I met from Fab and who became a FWB for a while, messaged me out of the blue. I like it.

I have received the odd Wink which has led to a conversation too even if the first message was from me off the back of it.
