Personally, I do not even think it is an issue of walking in someone else's shoes (let alone believing that 'what we go through' in terms of not getting a response back from a stranger who owes us nothing amounts to more than a mosquito bite on the ass of an elephant)... If SOMEONE are so thin skinned that SOMEONE can not take the smallest of all rejections in not getting a response from a person SOMEONE have never met before on an online site, than perhaps SOMEONE are not emotionally mature enough to enter into any relationship, let alone one with power exchange properties.

Beyond that, I think that if SOMEONE are working with any kind of intelligence and comprehension, SOMEONE can fathom the idea that it would be a mild tweak to be dismissed without being given any reason as to why (but again, SOMEONE should be smart enough to understand that SOMEONE are not entitled to a damn thing, either way) and/or that there is quite a bit of 'sub flooding' here on this site and also the very good possibility that the person has filtered SOMEONE out of the time they have to spend here for their own reasons (for which you are not entitled to an explanation unless they decide to give it to SOMEONE).


Recently you have grown more hostile in your posts for whatever reason, so maybe you used "you" in your post to mean the generic "you", or maybe it was a subtle dig at me personally. As I can no longer determine your meaning, I thought it would be helpful to alter your response to indicate which version I expect you meant.

As for me, I have never complained about women not responding to me. I know how the system works, which is why I took pains to try and explain the difficulties both sexes have with these sites, and how their experiences differed. I DO believe that it is a good quality to try to understand the issue from the other side of the argument; an ability that has become sorely lacking in modern day society, which has led to the extreme polarization we see in the world today.

My suggestion was not meant as a tool to defraud anyone. But since it has served to completely subvert my meaning, let's just drop the whole idea of false identity profiles.

My intent from the beginning was to express that most men and women do not have any understanding of what the experience is like from the opposite sexes point of view. To try to get back on track, here is my original post, reworded to emphasize the intent I thought was important:

Honestly I am always amused at the men who complain about being rejected out of hand AS WELL AS all the women who tell men to suck it up and get over it. Most men don't have a clue what it is like to be a woman on this site, and most women don't have a clue what a guy goes through either. Each side seems to see the issue only from thier own perspective.

If women were to imagine what a guy has to go through to try to get a response. Here is a typical guy's experience: contacting people day after day, month after month, never getting an answer. How long do you think it would take to get to the level of frustration a lot of guys on this site feel.

If men were to understand how inundated many women's inboxes become, especially if they are new to the site, they might be able to have some sympathy for her problem. Can you can really take the time to answer them all with a polite "no thanks", especially considering the kind of responses she gets back. Not to mention the sheer volume of time she would waste in her day.


A little understanding of the situation each sex has dealing with trying to find a partner would not be a bad thing.

Namaste, Sir Dominic

Hello Dominic,

No I was not trying to crunch you up, I was referring to the generic  when using 'you'.  I have never noticed you whining that women were not responding to you the way you wished or that you felt that your station as a Dom entitled you to expect all subs to comport themselves to your specifications.

For the men, here's a sampling of what I get:

"hi"
"hello, how are you?"
"want to chat?"
"do you im?"
"I"m looking for someone for my girl."
"do you enjoy pain?"

This is the nonsense that fills my in box.  Look to the men who are sending nonsense our way.

and you also got to love:

"do you cam naked?"
"give me your MSN and yahoo now!"
"i'm your master"
"can't wait to fuck your black pussy"
"do you read newspapers"
"how's my girl doing today"
"has Daddy spanked you lately?"
"are you a financial sub/slave?"
"i love you and want to kidnap you"

oh yeah, i really don't have complete understanding of how the male brain (not the one in their skulls) works.

What about the men who DON'T send nonsense, are they lumped in with the rest without a second glance? Does a woman who's heard too much bs get jaded to the point that she stereotypes all men?...curiouser and curiouser lol

Nope.  Not at all.  I've gotten thousands of emails here and 99% of them did not strike a chord at all in me.  Then there's that 1% that did.  It's personal to each and every person what makes someone or something stand out to someone.  One was only six words long and a signature and led to a very nice meeting and one was just so comfortable that I felt like I knew him and was connected to him instantly.

I don't get a lot of crap in my mailbox, so I have no reason to be jaded or cynical but I go for long stretches of time without responding to much mail.  Basically, if I'm talking seriously with someone I stop responding to mail from other people as I usually only talk seriously to one person at a time.  The conversations tend towards the intimate, and it feels real sleazy to me to have that kind of discussion with a bunch of people at once.  So, if I get a message from someone who looks interesting, I reply and if we can get a conversation going, I focus on that and ignore other mails.  I do read all mail, but it has nothing to do with the quality of the mail itself.   I suppose if someone were to send more than one or two mails  I might block them but thats never happened.

I imagine it to be about the same as being in a bar or other pick up place...if I were to get into a conversation with one person, I wouldn't interrupt it all the time to size up others.  I don't feel the need to tell every other guy who tries to catch my eye that I'm not looking back.  I just ignore them and avoid sending any gesture of interest.

I don't usually change my profile (except on request if I have a really good reason to give somone the benefit of the doubt, like we have mutual acquaintences so I know for a fact they're legit) until after I meet them, and even then I keep it vague, because technically nothings been decided and I don't want to create a false impression of my level of committment or make it seem like I'm assuming something about their level of committment. 

Its a tough call what to do when I'm not looking for new people to talk with just because I'm already talking to someone.  I did put some thought into this problem and decided to stop worrying about it and just not respond to mail.

Nope, I almost always get a well thought out response when I contact someone and I get contacted by quite a few women as well.  I think it has something to do with my profile being a "whine" free zone and not having pictures taken inside an unkept trailer that make the difference.

only twice have i received messages that weren't nonsense since one came from a Dom who is now my secondary. yet the nonsense ones do outweigh the nice ones most of the time.

I must admit that even thhough I try to answer the majority of my email, I am sure there are more than a few of them that I couldn't get to that have been from people I may have considered.  Some just slip through the cracks I guess.  It happens.
I advise getting some new pictures as well...
