| Men who specify body type of thin or athletic seem shallow. I can more than meet that criteria, but wouldn't see that in your profile and think " oh, that's me! I'm thin! He would love my bod!" nope, that got an ewwwww. So by stating that, you will actually turn away the (smart) girls with the ideal bod. |

Unfortunately the definition has been expanded to include fat women, like fat became curvy. And yes many men like "big boned" or not small women some like fat women and are attracted to them. |

You should its pretty funny sometimes and a bit sad. But stick to the mens, so many of us are clueless and write ridiculous stuff or soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo boring you'd jump out the window head first to stop the pain if you were locked in room with them. |

Actually, it stands for big beautiful woman and fatness is assumed. |

You had trouble getting that from the context? |

Nope. Probably it was a fat woman who did. |

Good point! I am married, but dh doesn't monitor my internet use. Thankfully, because it's embarassing how often I'm on dcum! |

Big, beautiful women sounds nicer. I can see wanting to specify no bbw or only bbw, but it makes the person seem like a jerk. |

Correct it stands for big beautiful woman, but fatness isnt assumed its true most of the time the phrase is used now. |

Have him read profiles with you, he'd probably thinks its funny. Plus your marriage will be stronger when you see the train-wrecks out there that are stalking the plains |

| The profiles that attracted me when I was online had good quality photos, at least 3. Outside, in good light, happy, doing something. Avoid selfies, professional profile portraits (you know, that studio headshot that your company puts on their website), and serious looks. Some examples of attractive pictures that I remember: a full body picture from a trip abroad, accompanied by a tongue-in-cheek, humorous comment about the location; candids in a park/outdoors with flattering light and cute, windswept hair; candid from a social outing that shows a happy, playful attitude. You should come across as approachable, happy, not intimading. Also, a spark, a sense of personality has to come through in what you write. It has to be well-written (complete sentences, grammatically correct, good vocabulary, no emojis), sound intelligent, and have a little playfulness or humor. It helps if you include things you truly enjoy for hobbies, books, movies because that can serve as conversation starters. |

AMEN! I don't mind dating men with children, but I hope that you have better judgment than to put their photos online in this particular environment. I just think it's poor form, and usually it's an easy way for me pass on that profile. - I also say this as a woman who doesn't have kids. Not sure if parents feel differently and they use this as a tactic to weed ME out, LOL. |

AMEN X2 I always thought it was odd to put children on there, not the right place in my mind. Keep your kids out of it, too many weirdos out there. |

I actually wrote in my friends profile ( It was as boring as the popes pecker) as a joke wanting to find someone to "pound like a Mallard". He got replies and unsolicited contacts. Point was it was so odd, and funny in a bizarre way but in context it was creepy. I am certain it worked simply as a door opener because it wasnt boring like the other 99% are. |
