If you could have one more Category on People's Profiles what would it be?
Jump to: Newest in thread
At the moment we have Age, Build, Smoker, Drinker, Tattoos and Piercings as visible catergories on our profiles. If you could pick just one extra visible category for Admin to add to all profiles what would it be? Mine would be Ethnic Origin. |

A 'why playing' section mainly for couples. Hate when people obviously just wanna sleep with loads of other people without getting kicked out of the house by their partner for cheating. Dunno about everyone else but I'm here to add spice to our relationship, not because I wanna disrespect my partner by jumping in the sack with any tom dick or harry. |

How about an actual swingers category for those who know what swinging actually is . Mrs |

That sounds like a very good subject for a whole new thread. Maybe you should start one? Would love to read the replies |

I think all the valid additions have already been suggested. The thing I would like to see is the search/browse selections matching those in profiles. For example, we all select an orientation - in fact, we are forced to - yet you cannot search for a couple with a bi fem and bi male. You have to sift through countless profiles to find that, if that's what you're looking for.

"Meets agreed v meets attended....."
Another swinging site has something like this, but it doesn't work, as it relies upon the other person to verify you did attend the meet, and more times than often, they don't bother to. |

I agree that the options in 'Browse' could be expanded on. I like white females who are happy to meet black men, and there's no way i can search/browse on that |

"I would hope they offer a separate TS category since TS isn't the same as TV/CD.
That may be a good point. I assume that would be an extra sub-category under Sexual Orientation."
TS and TV are completely different subjects never mind categories, neither of which have any bearing on orientation. One is a hobby and the other means that your physical birth gender does not match your gender identity. These two should be separated so that transgender individuals do not have to make the choice between lying about their gender or being accused of doing so. |

An option where they can tick 'my profile location is actually nowhere near where I actually live'. I am getting bored of chatting to men in York who actually live 30-50 miles away. |

IQ ?
Inside leg measurement ?
Favourite cheese ?
Seriously though - i'm not sure any more options are needed. Ethnicity would be obvious in a photo. And most other details can easily be included in profile text - why make life (and searches!) more complicated than they need to be? |

Ethnicity is only obvious in a photo if they attach one |

But lets face it - how many people consider a meet without seeing one? |

Yes I agree. But it saves time having to ask for one, then having to reply doesn't it if you could just tell by the profile what ethnic origin they are. Most dating sites have them, not sure why fab doesn't introduce it. And it would also mean people not having to state "no black etc...." |

TS needs to be included as a category because if a transgender female truthfully describes themselves as female and then explains in profile text that they are not a genetic female, they are often accused of being dishonest.
Under the present system if they lie and refer to themselves as male and TV/TS, they are chased by people looking for TV's (someone who loves dressing and behaving as female but has functioning male genitals). |

How does a guy saying he is black on his profile stop people stating "No black guys" on their profile?? |

The only two I would like to see added would be to make it clear on a couples profile which one is the female and which is the male - it isn't always obvious!
And the other would be to search for sexuality. |

Haha! I know exactly what you're saying. There's lots of profiles on here saying they're in Birmingham but they actually turn out to be 30-50 miles away too lol |

There are many many profiles on here that have no photos at all and a lot of people do not mention their ethnicity in their profile text either, so how are you to know if they're black or white or anything else?
What keeps happening to me is that i'm chatting to a woman who has such a profile and while we're getting on really well with a view to meeting up, she happens to mention she isn't white. Now i'm left in the embarrasing position to say to her, i'm sorry but i'm only looking for white women, which must be a big let down for her.
All this could have been avoided if there was an ethnicity category on her profile, because then i would've seen she wasn't white and so wouldn't have initiated the chat in the first place. Saving us both the embarrassment and the disappointment. |

As a married man I agree with relationship status. Then people who don't want to play with married men or women can exclude them from their searches.
I'm honest and say so in my profile. Each person has their own reasons for being on here just need to respect that. |

If there was an ethnicity filter, then I would block those ethnicities I do not wish to meet. |

"If there was an ethnicity filter, then I would block those ethnicities I do not wish to meet. "
I understand the point but i personally wouldn't use it to block anyone. An ethnicity category would be useful to me so that when browsing i could filter out the ethnicities i don't want to meet, thus saving me a lot of time searching and anymore embarrassing conversations. |

Agree"
It seems a lot of people are up for a relationship status category, but i suspect there'll still be some who will lie about it. |
