If you are still getting meets then you have the right to be picky and go for what you are really after. It's just separating the alright guy's from your preferred guy's.

If you're always being told it then for those people you do. I assume that there aren't too many for the ones who don't.

I admit that if we come across a profile with loads of dos and donts we move on but you must do what's right for you.

The odd bit is that you do not provide oral to men, bit you get penetrated

The rest does seem normal apart that you do not look for men but you speak about them

The big thing about Fab is that you can look for (within the obvious limits) what you really want and suits your mood and desires.

Ther is no need to conform and your profile is wonderfully informative and opens up lots of possible conversations.

I think it's fine. You're very clear about what you do and don't want. I'm sure it's not the profile you originally wrote when you joined but has been honed by the kind of messages you have since received. I've had to change mine too so know where you're coming from. I think the more clear you are, the more likely you are to meet the sort of people you actually want. Your profile, your choice!

If you are happy with 1 meet and 1 cam in the two weeks you have been on Fab then the answer is no.

If you are disappointed with the number of meets you have had in two weeks the answer is yes.

Only you know what you are wanting from the site.

If you are happy with the number of meets your profile provides there is no need to change it.

Actually, I've been on Fab for about six months overall and had plenty of meets on my old profile with the same rules, so yes, I am happy.

I think if it works for you, that's all that matters.

For me I wouldn't pursue due to lack of oral, and your current status of asking someone to 'treat you' for your birthday isn't really something I would feel comfortable with. Happy to spend and treat a lady, but someone advertising or encouraging in any way, shape or form is a turn off. Again, just personal choice.

If your profile doesn't outline your needs , then why bother having one ?

Clearly you have specific criteria , and these are clear . Except one - that being the fact that you won't perform oral on a guy , and that you will only soft swing with a guy . That doesn't leave much for him does it ?

Anyway , that aside , it's your shop window and it's the choice of the reader to message you or not to . Why anyone would simply message you to say you have too many rules is beyond me .

Oh one last thing , as I rarely play on meets the bit about the guy not getting any fun wouldn't bother us at all

Its your profile word it how you want list rules what ever at the end of the day you don't have to answer to anyone .

As for guys saying you have to many rules on your profile isn't that just a case of guys trying to tell you you should be a easier lay .

That's how I'd read a message like that why aren't you easy your on a sex site kind of thing

Like the poster above I'm just wondering what on earth a single guy would get out of meeting you - judging by your profile text! Kissing and a wank?

If I were you I think I'd just meet other women and couples that are happy for just the woman to play!

However - your profile, your choice!

The bit I don't understand is 'too many' rules

One rule that doesn't fit with my idea of sex or swinging is enough to prevent me messaging that profile, let alone 'too many'

We are here for our own pleasure (in the main). Surely finding someone on the same page is all part of the fun.

That fun is lost for me if I feel need to coax, cajole or persuade.

I would say you had 3/4 "rules" on your profile, but no different to most other profiles. The rest are just preferences and if those are your preferences to whom you meet then that's your decision., if people read it then it helps filter out those you won't be interested in.

Why do you even care? If you put the rules out there it is presumably what you want. Why compromise?

We have rules and conditions and would never consider compromising. Who wants or needs meets with people that you actually don't really want to meet? Quality over quantity any day.

"Do I?! "

No, pet, it's fine, babe.

I think when people moan about the rules it's because one of them excludes them. After all, 5' 7½" isn't much less than 6'; muscles are all very good, but surely a man who can bake a nice cake is better; I was once 40; would something drawn on with felt-tip be good enough as a tattoo? Drop all those rules and I'm good to go!

(Apart from the piercing and the nice arse, obvs)

My only criticism is it lacks one of those secret passwords. I like deliberately getting those wrong...

Rules are fine, we have just has many if not more, it's pointless people contacting you if they don't meet your criteria ....

Brighton - even Hove!

Rules make it easy for men to decide whether or not to contact.

"I don't understand why they are all bothering to message you to tell you this.

I know why they do. It's so you'll 'feel guilty or bad about yourself' then drop your standards and fuck them, really is as simple as that. Manipulative creeps."

Ok so when they do that do you give any consideration to what they say, or do you think "twat" and ignore/block? I know which I'd do.....and it doesn't involve questioning my profile or selection process!

Blimey, how can you attribute those motives to people you've never met!?

I would say it's as simple as an alternative way of engaging conversation.

"Your profile, your rules

I am convinced a single female on here could simply put "fuck off" on her profile and still get plenty of messages

Anyone up for testing that? "

Hmmmm maybe

I've had bizarrely more messages since I scaled my profile text & photos right down.

Funnily enough...your rules appear to be a framework from which you start.

Your current status seems to fly in its face. "

Have to admit I kind of agree with this. I don't really understand the point of rules if they're not actually setting out what you want. Or if what you want changes. If the point of them is so people know what you're looking for and don't waste their time, then they kind of have to be saying what you're actually looking for.

I've always said you will get more chancers messaging the less you have on your profile. If you don't have pics or have ambiguous pics even more so. There is nothing to tell them you don't want them messaging you and they have no idea what you look like so it stands to reason they will take a chance and message.

Too many rules looks picky and negative. Best to chat and clear it up before the meet. Does anyone read such a long profile.

Who cares what others think, if it works for you then great. Way too many people on here are concerned at how others run their profiles. Don't like, move on, simple concept really.

Your profile is good and I wish I had the nerve to make more rules. I personally don't mind pet names but each to their own.

Why do you feel you need nerve to make rules?

I don't get that many messages or much interest so I feel a more demanding profile would not work at all for me

You accept anything just to get interest, rather than be discerning?!!!"

No, I dont accept just anything. I am choosy and discerning, have made mistakes on here with meeting the wrong people, havent we all?

You could try it and if it didn't work go back to your current one. You seem to have a couple of hard and fast rules in place anyway. "

I altered a bit, probably too hard and fast now?

More stuff added to my profile, repeated a couple of things because, well, because I felt it necessary.

Just wondering if I could have some feedback please on my profile? Thanks everyone

If people are contacting you first to tell you that you have too many rules then just block and forget. On the other hand if you are contacting people first and they say it as a way of no thanks then I think you just have to take it on the chin and move on to the next. I'm sure there will be some that accept them and providing that is enough for you then happy days.

People actually read profiles?! Mind blown!!

We all want our profiles to attract others, particularly people we want to meet. The concern is that when some mention that they find certain aspects off-putting (usually people who don't fit the criteria), we wonder if we wonder the ones we genuinely want are also put off. I think that may be why the OP might be slightly concerned. I find people tend to start threads on subjects like this when something is niggling them.

Since the OP does a lot of her own looking, it shouldn't be a problem. You can have your criteria. Don't scrap it, be more creative in how you word it.

This should be easy for a Big Bang theory, comicbook and novel fan.
