Geek mail is the price all women pay for posting a public profile, not just submissives.... There's a lotta men out there who have found the anonymity of the Net to be the perfect vehicle for being their true obnoxious selves without guilt or consequences! Think in terms of unsupervised kids loose in a lolly shop....

The problem is eternal but there's things you can do. Sorry to seem harsh but your own profile does tend to be the kinda magnet geeks are especially attracted to. What you've written is very personal and I'd suggest is better viewed by your one specific Dom/Master rather than just anyone who opens your profile. Yes, I know it's your profile and you *should* be able to write virtually what you want but it's also your geek mail you're dealing with.

I'd also suggest adding a small disclaimer that only mail from polite and/or sincere people can expect a response and then you're free to reply, ignore, block, delete etc at your leisure and with a clear conscience.

Focus.

Your profile says nothing about you other than "Novice ripe to be seduced"

Where are YOU? What are the important values in your life? What are your joy? What are your quirks? What do you want people to know about you?

Your profile as it stands now has no true personality, could have come from a thousand sites on Ds and leaves nothing to go on BUT a sexy fantasy.

Mistress Hathor, I dont mean to be rude or anything, but if You are unhappy with this post about "yet another email thread" You do not have to respond. I am sorry my post upsets You, but I do have the right to post what I would like to without the fear of someone responding exactly how You just did. Like You have said in other posts, if something bothers you, move on to the next thread. I normally find Your comments intelligent and responsive, I am surprised at Your comment over my post.

Excellent response!

Amazing how the ignorant, selfish or arrogant can't grasp that there aren't any truly new topics of discussion, only new people discussing them.

I use a 5 button mouse and it's a simple thumb flex to back out of a topic that I have nothing positive to offer. Such a mouse is not expensive....

Focus.

I have a question concerning emails. This isnt a flame question or anything. I was wondering why it seems that some of the Dominants on here email you and immediately begin asking sexual questions. Is it that hard to try to get to know a person first before worrying about the sexual side? I would like to know the best way to respond to those types of emails. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I experienced that too, and being new to this I didn't really anticipate it, but after posting about the offers I was being given for training that had made me uncomfortable, I was told by a member that it could have been because of my profile being unclear. So I had inadvertantly invited that

I edited my profile recently, and it may just be coincidence, but I haven't had any messages of that nature since explicitly putting at the very top that I am in no way here to be trained and owned, I'm just here as someone with scant experience who wants to learn more from those who have been in the lifestyle for a longer time.

This is really a great place filled with helpful and friendly people, so I hope you don't end up turned off by the things you didn't like and stay longer to get to know the majority who will be a real asset to you. Best luck, welcome and enjoy the site

When someone creates a new profile, it pops on the "New" list which everyone can see.

The new fem subs get inundated with emails. It's a great way to throw them in the deep end and make them swim. Unfortunately what tends to happen is they come to the forums and ask about it. When this happens 4 times in one month...

The good news is that in about 2 days your name is off the new list and the count goes way down.

It's just emails, you are in control.

The emails won't stop no matter what you put in your profile (unless you change it to male), but you can cut down on a majority of them.

After all the shock and suprise and outrage and protest, this is a sexually oriented site.

Yes, it is bad manners to delve right into sexual issues in the first message, but protesting also strikes me as similar to complaining the food in an Indian restaurant is too hot.

But then everybody loves me, so who am I to say?
