This piece, written by a woman, is on point. I see EVERY one of these mistakes EVERY day online. They're so intent on trying to weed out certain guys off the bat that they end up shooting themselves in the foot. They want their choice of perfect men delivered to their inboxes on a daily basis...

Too much time consuming to read each profiles and figure out hidden meanings.

If she has a good face and body to be jizzed on, I just message her.

[WanderingSoul]

They missed "I hate fake people and drama" which means, "I create tons of problems for myself and I am always talking shit and arguing with my friends. I will undoubtedly blow shit way out of proportion just so I have some form of drama at all times, because I feed off of it."

[panache]

The opposite of this study would be more interesting to me actually, i.e., what flags in mens profiles would women be wary of.

You say: I'm independent/driven/ambitious.
He hears: I work 60 hours a week, teach yoga on the side and am taking classes to learn seven different languages.

This should be:

You say: I'm independent/driven/ambitious.
He hears: I fill up my schedule with random bullshit, to hide the complete lack of meaning and connection endemic to my life. I will proceed to proudly blow you off in favor of these engagements. And when I flake, or tell you I can't meet that day, I will not have the decency to propose another day instead. I will then make you pursue by default, and then lose interest in you because your pursuit makes you seem 'try-hard.'

(I saw the paragraph explaining this, after I wrote the above portion, and it seems like they agree with my first clause.)

Quote:

You say: I'm extremely picky.
He hears: I have unrealistic expectations for potential partners, and it's unlikely that you'll make me happy.

I hear: I'm emotionally incapable of feeling intimacy or affection for a partner, so I just try to get the richest, hottest, highest status, most sexually arousing man I can find. Until I get bored of him. If you see me as anything more than a fucktoy, I will think you're a sap and cheat on you. Immediately.

Quote:

You say: I'm laid-back/easygoing/down-to-earth.
He hears: I don't have strong opinions about anything or I spend a lot of time on the couch in my sweats watching movies.

Honestly, this is irrelevant. A girl saying she's 'laid-back' is zero indication of anything. I can see appealing and unappealing girls putting that in their profile.

Quote:

You say: I'm old-fashioned and have traditional values.
He hears: I won't have sex with you until we're married.

I don't think this is as bad as they say. I'd look at the rest of her profile. Is she wearing skimpy clothes, writing sassy comments, has had several sexual partners? She's probably looking for a lame guy to buy her dinners, where they can go six dates without kissing, while she's fucking some other dude.

I actually met a chick somewhere, ended up eating next to each other. She was thin, mid to late thirties I think. She had a strong sexual energy, remember telling her at one point "I don't want your juices to get all over me" when she was fidgeting with her food. She was kinda ugly in the face, but I was in a nofap stretch and ready to burst. Then the bitch tells me that she doesn't fuck men unless she's in a loving relationship with them, because she's from Texas. Ok, sounds respectable. Oh, and also that she's dating three men, one of whom she's gone on six dates with and they haven't even kissed. Another she's gone on one with, and they *have* kissed.

She still might've been DTF, but I immediately lost interest and proceeded to ignore her shortly after.

Don't worry about wasting your time on men only looking for sex. "These guys always expose their true intentions," says Wygant. How? He'll engage in sex talk right away over email, so watch for suggestive language, recommends Wygant.

Not sure if Wygant is a fucking retard or a manosphere mastermind. The above statement, that any guy looking for just sex, will make that obvious over email - ha, that's ridiculous. Maybe he's covering for us?



Yeah, this stuff is pretty on point. It's because Evan Marc Katz is responsible for most of it. He's been mentioned on here before, as a man bringing wisdom to the women out there.

[jammer]

You know whats funny is that the only guys who wait months for girls to put out are Betas and players. Yeah the players. There are some guys who get off on that kind of challenge which makes the subsequent breakup after the sex hurt a lot more for the girl.

[ryanf]

I would actually rather have girls leave these in their profile. Just like sh!t-tests are a good screen for betas, online profiles are a good screen for gold diggers and low value girls.

[Timoteo]

I also see a ton of "I hate liars!" Yeah...no shit. Don't we all. But while writing that on their profile, they're either flat-out lying about any number of things, and omitting a ton of other things they're waiting to spring on you once they think they've got you locked in. I've seen any number of chick go on and on about how much they love their kids, but I've also encountered a few that didn't even mention their kids until we'd been writing/chatting for weeks. Like RioNomad touched on, I see a lot of "anti-drama" queens, and yeah, that usually means the opposite. Just like the chicks that claim to have so many of those mythical haters. Gimme a break - no one gives a fuck about you. Other chicks fuck with you because it's entertainment, i.e. DRAMA.

The greater problem I have with women's profiles is that many don't provide ENOUGH info. Rather than fill out certain parts, they write "just ask." LAZY. Or they simply aren't interesting enough. Or under favorite music, they write "all." Bullshit. There are genres or artists that you favor over others - write something. They know if they post a few pics, they'll get interest, but then they complain about the lame messages they get from guys. I don't totally disagee, but in some cases it's because women don't give guys anything to work with for his initial message.

Where you have one, you usually have the other. They often write these as partner articles, giving both sides of it. I'm sure I've read similar articles before, but I can't recall specifically where. And I probably dismissed what I read immediately.

These articles are just puff pieces. I wouldnt take them too seriously. Id say Basil's statements are more accurate, but if you fed that information to a woman, the hamster would go into overdrive and die.

They cant handle the truth.

This reminds me of how one time, our of curiosity, I combed the internet for articles identifying the signs of a player. I found several, and they were almost all, laughably off base, on a par with Wygant's statement here. Players are like water, they assume all shapes, in order to get the bang.

There was one written by a black chick though, that was so on point I was cracking up.

A good number of men initiate based on physical attractiveness, but if she responds, at some point some of the issues highlighted in the article come into play. I've avoided some chicks that I thought were attractive but who's profile just had too many red flags, while I've initiated with others that showed a few, just to see where I could take it. At some point, you'll need to dig into her profile.

Flakiness is so high that if she's bangable, nothing else really matters. The big screen is getting her to show up for the date. Everything else is probably going to be a waste of time.

I do try to get them on the phone and talk for a few minutes. Occasionally I'll talk to one who's really grating, and I won't contact her again.

Once she does agree to a date though, reading her profile can be valuable. Eg, clues as to how DTF she is, what she's looking for in a man, what to expect, etc.

[MrXY]

When I am doing a messaging session I just look at the photos. If I think she might pass the Boner Test-I message her.

If she answers then I look at the profile to see what her job is, indicators of (DTFness or not), any facts of special interest.

"I hate cheater, liars, drama,etc"= =these types of guys get me wet

"Dont message me if you're looking for a booty call, one night stand, an easy lay, etc"=means nothing.Nearly every online girl i have gotten an SNL from said this in her profile and/or her messages to me.

[Pappy]

If the point of the article is to make an honest profile, then why does the author even writes an article in the first place? We already know how to read between the lines, so all these catch phrases tell us exactly what we need to know about the girl.

This.

I'd say, as a guy, if you're actually reading a girl's profile, you're doing it all wrong. They're like a bunch of mechanical clones of each other anyway. As much as bitches love thinking they're a bunch of unique snowflakes, it just ain't so.

Remember, this article is written for women, by a woman. It's basically instructing women to eliminate negativity and other things that may give men a poor initial impression. She's then telling them to read and interpret OUR responses, instead of trying to discourage the "wrong" type of men from responding in the first place. In a way, she's telling women to hide their worst attributes...HA HA! As other guys have stated, I also look at pics first, and based on what I see I'll take a look at the profile and see if she's written anything interesting or revealing about herself. If the bitch seems crazy, I may passively initiate (a wink or tag or something). If she seems cool, I'll initiate with a message, hopefully culled from something on her profile. But face it...we're in it for the pussy, and chicks trying to warn off guys that are looking for booty calls, etc. are either naive or delusional. They're on the site because they want dick - they just want to dictate the terms and pace of the eventual bang.

There is much truth to what you write here. You read the same cliches on profile after profile. The profiles that do stand out from the rest are immediately apparent, but most are the same old same old.

[Tuthmosis]

I should make a catalog of all of the meaningless lines and cliches I see repeated time and time again in chicks' online profiles. I swear I've seen it all.

"Don't make someone a priority when you're only an option" is the one that stands out to me. I can't count the amount of times I've seen this.

Why even look at the profile?

The best way to look at them? If they are online they want to get honed.

The profile is meaningless.

As is your own.
