This being a site aimed at getting like minded individuals together for sexual encounters, wouldn't it be nice to have some sort of feature where we could let people know how our voices sound? Sexual attraction is based on many things, but on these sort of sites, people are fairly limited in how they can express themselves, we have pictures that hopefully make us look good, we can write intelligent and witty profiles and forum comments, but so much of the time the words themselves are less important than how they're spoken.
I actually shared a video with a woman on here fairly recently so she could hear what my voice sounded like (she liked it but thought my dialect was far more colloquial than it sounds to my own ears), and it was a nice way to get to know someone a little better.
Thoughts? |

...and yes I'm aware you can just phone people, but that involves the exchanging of numbers, which many people understandably aren't comfortable with before getting to know someone a bit better, so I was thinking of a slightly less personal way to do it. |

Go in chat with your cam on and hey presto...Moving pictures with sound. Time to close the thread  |

As many people don't use the chatrooms, and perhaps don't feel comfortable being on webcam then no, that's no solution at all. |

I think the chat rooms should cover this. You don't have to show your face, or anything else, to be in there. I've never shown my face when I've gone on the chat rooms. (I also won't talk on cam there because my accent is too recognizable, but that would be the same for any other such feature).
Otherwise there is always skype, which we have used before. We never play on skype - just chat a bit to get to know people - and no phone numbers need to be swapped. So that sounds good enough, no? |

All these things still require an established sense of familiarity though Courtney, which for single males, is perhaps the hardest thing to do in swinging, hence why I suggest something like a voice recording just so people can hear it without any sort of commitment. Chat rooms are terrible for single males, as utter, utter ignorance is all most will be met with. |

Ah. Yes, all third party solutions would require an established connection. I see what you mean. |

It sounds like an awfully experience. 20000 men trying to sound like Barry white, and 10000 others trying to sound like a woman "I'm a LADY don't you know!"..... |

Well I have the face that killed a thousand meets, a body that the hall of mirrors struggles to replicate, so adding voice would just shatter those mirrors, as well and any illusions that remain, with it |

"install kik and send a voice clip.. job done "
Yep i agree with this. This is what i use if someone wants to hear my voice....if for some completely bizarre reason they don't want to chat on the phone. It's not something that I've ever considered as an issue but i do know I wouldn't want a Recording of my voice linked to this site. |

"maybe fab could introduce a voice mail function to have on our profiles so we could record a introduction message .
PoF has this  "
You're not suppose to mention other sites!
This one fears competition! |

I love the female voice generally anyway. I can quite happily wait until I meet someone to hear it. In fact it's one of those little things to look forward to when you do finally meet. It's always a nice surprise. |

Not every single female voice, but there are those which are just lovely to listen to, so much so that I'll give my best voice in return just because I want to impress them. |

"I started a thread about 10 days ago saying it would be good to hear each other. Uncanny."
Are you insinuating that I plagiarise other peoples ideas?
I'm so upset, I think I might post a thread about musicals to cheer myself up  |
