What is it with these single men?
When we first put up our profile our request was simply 'No single men please'
As the weeks went by and we were still getting messages from men who thought we would think that they were the bees knees, we changed our profile entry to make this abundantly clear (so I thought)~ read our current profile on this topic.
There were still men who wrote to us, who were presumably either illiterate (couldn't read or comprehend what we were saying) or unbelievably self opinionated.
Then I noticed on the privacy tab of settings, there is an option to block messages from male accounts. The messages have stopped lol
Its obvious this is a problem with a lot of couples, so there is your answer. If we all do the same, those of large cocks but little brain may just get the message.

Some people are just a nuisance, I think they may have worked in cold calling where volume is king.
I still get messages from gay and bi guys, as long as they are polite and stop sending PMs after I say 'No thanks' then I couldn't care less.
I wouldn't group block them because a few don't get the message. Hell those with interesting or amusing things to say wont get a fuck out of me but may well make my friends list if they are good people.

Was it brucie dunno
I think its sad that you can just block out single males and tar them all with the same brush. You don't have to talk to them, you don't even have to reply but no need to insult them in bulk because you've had a few baduns pm you sad
What's a profile? Wanna hook up fer some naughties?
p.s. I'm only single when the mrs isn't about.
I'm sorry, but as in many other instances in life, the actions of a few doget the majority tarred with the same brush.
We don't want messages from single men. What is it they don't understand?
I wouldn't be so rude as to try to contact anybody who says, in plain English, that they don't want to be contacted ~ its bad manners.
I've turned the blocking off just to see what happens.

Course, it could be that actually you've just been contacted by people who can't read, or are pushy, or think they're Gods gift. Not traits exclusive to single men. Just so happens that the vast majority of users on this site are single men, so chances are when you get messages from those who can't read, or are pushy, or think they're Gods gift, most will inevitably come from single men. It's simple statistics and the law of averages you see, but you have chosen to see it as a 'single men' issue?

Agreed Neil, actually I don;t think it's a single male issue at all. My profile says not to contact me and I get a couple of messages a day, half from males and half from couple/fems, so actually when you add it all up with member numbers then the couples/fems are the worst offenders. Maybe I should start a thread about couple and single fems messaging me :lol2:

Ah, well . . . You could do that, but while single male bashing threads are just like 'Yawn, so what, find a strategy that works, and ignore everything else' posting about all the single fems who message you would probably just be seen as bragging. lol Best not, eh? :P

Just from a quick glance. Your a site mod with extras (No idea if thats part of the package) and site history. Are you really surprised people throw you a message on the off chance? Extras for a start shows your looking at whos looking so suggests your paying some kind of attention. If someone has a copy and paste message with a pic to attatch is takes seconds of their time to message you and if you dont respond then so what nout lost.
Could be applied to many profiles.

Cant say for sure but I dont think Kate is surprised at anything much :shock:
The point I read from her post, and I entirely agree with is its not an issue with single males - its just uuandjay only notices a problem with single males because thats the only group they are applying restrictions to!!
Therefore it is very unfair to come on here bashing single guys as being a 'problem group' when actually all user groups are just as bad.
Perhaps a better topic would be "people" :lol2:
Well I get PM from bi-males, and whispers in the chatrooms. I just take it as a compliment. Then think poor chap, all the bi/gay guys have rejected him.
Did you ever stop and think how many single guys read your profile and didn't message you ?? I know I didn't.
I reckon we must be doing something wrong as we get very few mails from single guys, despite our profile saying we do meet with guys on their own. Sure we get the odd mail from people who have a very loose interpretation of "tall, slim and under 40", but not in the numbers to get stressed about.

"tall, slim and under 40"

Got all confused then - I read it as: under 40" blink
I thought Im not surprised you dont get many replies looking for a tall person under 3ft 4" rotflmao
when these single male threads come along i am usually left with the feeling that the plaintives, despite their protestations and reasons, were really more dissapointed about not getting enough offers from single males.
tbf, even though we have also asked for no single men, we really have only had maybe 3 messages from that pool, so cant really complain too much. (had more friend requests from single guys than actual messages. lol)
the problem we seem to have encountered more of is with couples, where the guy seems to either have to (yeah right) or want to do all the communicating.
when even their own profile states fem/fem contact, you get a bloke on the other end of a phone or keyboard, and likewise, when you get messages from couples, and state you want contact from the fem, all contact stops.
me thinks there are a large number of profiles on here, of couples that are either not couples at all, or no longer couples, yet the guy seems to think he can get his rocks off by talking to my other half, or we will organise a meet when we have no interest of further cock.
does it make sense?????

I have had the same. 'Cam not working, sorry', and all that. I always offer a live cam to anyone I agree to meet, and expect the same.

It's coz we are all to old for you, I would send you mail, but know you would turn me down.
Just to change the angle a little,
Us single guys get a hell of a bad bad press!
We are called "desperate" and just after a shag.
We don't fit the criteria of those seeking couple to couple.
When we reach a certain age, we are considered past it!
We are often cited as being a problem because we are single!!
If I were to scour the ads for hours and hours and hours on SH, I would find that, as a 39 year old single bloke has no chance, zero chance and naff all chance.
It's true.
When you are 39 and single, life is, in effect, over.
It is also around this time, that a single man realises that there is no chance of becoming an astronaut.
Oh, and for those who think it's weird that a bloke can be single at 39, I'm divorced, enjoying life, earning loads and supporting my kids through their schooling. I travel internationally and live the life most dream of.
I hate being single!!!

I think some people on this site come across quite moody.

And the ones who moan are always the ones if you saw them on the bus you wouldnt even look twice............. just saying like.

Maybe not the case. Commercial flights are on the way in the not too distant future if you have a spare 100k lol
We have had the same problem. The profile clearly reads no single men.
I am so tempted to start listing there names on the profile to say they are idiots.
I think the techs need to impliment something where
1. single men posing as couples can be reported then they have to prove they are not.
2. An option can be given where you can select what you are not looking for, and if the person contacts you any way you can report them in some way.
We are getting to a point where we are thinking of removing the public pictures, and making them private.

There's a button on profiles to enable you to report profiles to admin
2. An option can be given where you can select what you are not looking for, and if the person contacts you any way you can report them in some way.

Settings > Privacy > Mail Settings > Tick the box for 'male' and presto hey! No more mail from Male profiles.
