I just think it makes it easier. I know I have sent messages to people and the response back has been sorry only my wife is bi or sorry I am bi top only.
Some people will distinguish what bi play they like on their profile but in my experience not that many.

I think this is a thing to sort out in a message. Where would it end? Spanking - hand/ implement/ sharp implement; degree of bruising or bleeding permissible; amount of injury caused as defined by the criminal law. |

I can see it doesn't cover all tastes but I believe it's a good start and would help.

"I think this would be great for women too, as in "Genuinely bi" and a "pillow princess" option too lol 
That would require honesty  "

"I think it would be great if the bi / bi cur option was broken down into top, bottom or flexible?
I think it would be a great addition? What do people think? "
It is a status option on the fabguys site, not really needed here imo |

I understand that but it can get frustrating messaging when they are outside of your preferences and you out of theirs in the first place. |

"Then think of every bi guy as versatile, then talk to them about what they might like to do and wait for consent.  "
I do take that approach but I'm wasting their time and mine sending messages when they are not what I want nor me them. I just it makes life easier and I'm all for not wasting people's time. |

Its hardly a waste of time typing a simple
"Hi. My name is Gary. I love your photos, especially (this one) because (why). After I read your profile and l love the idea of doing (this) with you. It might not be your thing, so is you have a look at my profile and can think of something you might like to do please let me know. Happy fabbing, Gary. X"

My name is John..joke! Ok. Bad joke!
I get what you're saying but if you apply that logic, then there is no need for the not looking for single guys function either? As like you say a simple message works instead. |

Male here is bisexual but not into anal either way so do we need another option? Oral only? How far do we go?
Female isn't all that bi and will play with women in a group scenario so what do you call that?
Over complication if you ask us |

I can't fathom thinking of introductory messages as a waste of time. I just can't. |

Ello John  It would in an honest and civilised world.  Some indicators simplify the search but if we reduce the process to such specific criteria we will miss out on the humanising element. There's so many guys on fab who already think it's as simple as ordering what they want. We need to connect then maybe one day all our fantasies come true.  |

Without that initial effort, what's the point? There are some people who are not very good at messages and spelling and such, but when you meet them they are engaging to talk to. |

I enjoy the journey of discovery to find out if someone who caught my eye can establish a connection, rather than filtering everyone out based on tick boxes.
Seems a bit like instashag where you can whittle down people based on a few preferences rather than learning if you can interact on a human level before getting to the sexy time.

Sure. But unfortunately this is a text based medium, and I can't differentiate between "can't write" and "can't be bothered to write/ negotiate". |

If it's significant for you, can't you put it in your profile text? I understand it doesn't fix the searchability issue but it would make it clear to anybody you are communicating with and knock time-wasting on the head.
I notice you haven't included it so why would anybody think it matters to you? |

Maybe we need a "Grammar School" filter as well j/k. We definitely agree communication is key. |

I completely agree. I just feel it would make that initial effort more successful for all concerned. But I understand your points on how far do you take it. |

In one sense I see the point in having more choices and information to peruse, but I think I come down on the side of 'less information generates more conversation. x |

"What’s a pillow princess? Sounds like something I’d be interested in 
It's not a compliment. It's a woman who lies back and does nothing expecting the man to do all the work. Aka crap in bed. "
Oh haha ok then, maybe not then  |
