So there's loads of posts asking for advice about what to write (I've done it before). Thought I'd try a different approach and get opinion on one if the last messages i sent... the profile didn't say much but included that the person didn't know what they wanted and was open to trying everything. So, my message to her:
Everything?? That's a lot of things to get through
That's why I joined too. Basically to try things I hadn't done but wanted too. So glad I did, I've had some very horny times. Problem is it leaves me wanting more.
I like finding out what turns someone on and building on that. So, what turns you on?
I'd love to chat and maybe explore some things together. I want to try a party or another club but with someone rather than on my own
Chris xx
So, what do you think about this? Good, bad, ok... would it elicit a response from you? |

I personally wouldn't like someone asking me what turns me on in their first message. There also seems to be a lot about you and not much about her which is offputting. |

Ok, what if there isn't much about her in the profile to work from? |

"I'm interested why you would message someone who doesn't have much in her profile. If that's the case however, I suppose the message you sent is fine."
Intrigued I guess. There must be a reason for joining the site. Something that triggers you to look into it and join. So as there wasn't much on the profile I thought I'd say hello and try to find out. That was the reason for the 'what turns you on'. |

I only asked because in my experience those with very short profiles are either (a) lazy (b) not serious about meeting or (c) fake, but of course it remains to be seen whether the person in question falls into any of those categories. Hope she doesn't, and that you get a reply! |

Yep" well if advice from people you dont know counts ,my advice is get to know woman first before you mention sex thing ,some will be ok with it but most won't and remember only say things you would actually say if you were sat in a pub talking to them face to face |

"if I got asked "what turns you on" in a first message I would delete too. "
Do you not think the context of the profile could warrant that question sometimes though? |

"I don't like the what turns you on questions either I actually don't like talking about sex at all until I know I want to have sex with said person.
But apart from that it's not bad "
Good to know. Thanks! |

I totally agree with this.
I always let the other person take the first steps into more salacious chat having built up a rapport |

"Even if you were what I was looking for I'd likely have not replied as you've launched into asking what turns her on. "
Again, context of the profile must come into play here? |

Not for me no. I doubt I'd even look at your profile to be honest if you asked me what turns me on in a first message. |

Your message would be OK to a person with a profile, very direct on sex. Someone who says " I'm not into chat, waste no time and want sex and sex alone. Filthy whore. C'mon guys, tell me what turns you on.. Hmm, I'm fucking wet already".
Such profiles are usually fake or the person is in the adult businesses, so they won't catch my interest.
So there it is.Direct message to a direct profile.
Be a bit more subtle, be a gentleman. At all times, not only at the begging.
Good fuck...sorry, my dirty predictive text... luck !

Some very good points. If fab/online is your only contact medium then it's crucial to get it right. That said, there is strictly no right and wrong.
As mentioned some wouldn't reply, some would. Some won't even read what you've said and go straight to the pics.
Be true to yourself - if what you really want to write, and is who you are is more "want to fuck you better than any other man could and show you a great time" then put it! - you'll narrow your responses but you'll be happier with the ones you do get.
So, if you want to ask something. Ask!
You can't please all the people all of the time.
The more diluted and generic your message becomes the less intresting it becomes. In some ways I'd rather have someone say "Kate looks gorgeous - I'd love a night alone with her!" Than, "happy to play as a couple with hubby there or alone if required.." - now, neither would definitely get a reply but at least I feel like I know what the first guys motivations are - the second there's the thought that, yes he's being very accommodating BUT is he just saying that to get a shag??
It's a bloody mind field.
Be yourself - then whatever happens will be the right outcome.

Good advice here!
Did you mean a "mine field" or were you playing with words?
BTW, can I have Katie for a night to give her DP and threesome all by myself? |

Lol yes - mine field... but both work.
Errrm, unless you've got 2 cocks you're going to struggle to DP or have a threesome all by yourself... but I guess that's not what you meant?

Exactly this.
If this was the 1st message I received from a guy I would be unlikely to answer.
Yes it's a swingers site, and yes you would possibly like to have sex with the woman you are mailing, but you don't need to mention it in a 1st message or ask what turns them on. |

I think the op has mentioned the context of the profile here a couple of times... My Guess would be that their page says something like "up for anything" "open to new things" "will try everything once, twice to be sure" etc...
So I can understand why he's asked the question in the instance only... He's trying to narrow it down to see if there is anything they can connect on...
However, also agree with all other comments in that it would usualy be a question later on (and normally shouldn't need to be asked as by a few messages in you should have a good idea).
Great comments from all sides though as always |

I'm the same and I also find it very presumptuous to be honest, and I would just ignore |

"Thanks all.
It's a real balancing act! To forward puts people off, too plain and boring puts people off.
Need to find the goldilocks message!!"
No such thing. That's going to depend on the person you're messaging. |

first line is good, it shows you read the profile and the comment itself was quite funny.
mentioning you are after the same thing is good, it shows compatibility. but being explicit about having 'horny' times is a bit too much. you wanting more also comes across as selfish.
asking what turns someone on is overstepping a boundary, imo. you don't know if they even care to tell you that or are interested in you sexually. asking this can also come across as you wanting wank chat.
last line is good as well, gives an idea of what you want and is asking politely.
i personally think profiles should go into the nitty gritty of what you want so that you don't have to send too explicit messages to the person you are contacting, my opinion. |

you're welcome.
i think you only aren't allowed to discuss messages people send to you coz it's classed as airing dirty laundry. |

The guys that we have bothered to meet only ever asked to meet in a pub for a drink!!
We all know why we are meeting so be need to go into detail before then.
A little bit of chat to see if we have the same sense of humour before is good, and just breaks the ice.

I don't make the rules. Just giving you a heads up in case a Mod sees it and deems it a breach of the rules.
