What a bunch of crap. There's enough holier than though in this thread to buy the pope another gold toilet. I send cut and paste messages. You want to know why? Because 99.9% of the women on this site don't reply no matter what I write. I'm going to take my valuable time to write 1000 personalized messages to the lying, game playing "submissives" on this site so I can get one response, and that from some woman in africa who will be my slave forever if I will only send her airfare? The only thing more rare than honesty on this site is common courtesy. Everything I need to say as an introduction is in my profile. When I get a response from a real person, then I write a personalized message. Of course that real person isn't the person that the profile describes. That takes another email or two to figure out.


I'm sensing ... issues.

Bless.

I copy & paste my rules & limits, because they are always the same. I get copy & pasting one or two lines every once in a while, but when it comes down to it... if someone's initial email does not in any way indicate that they have read my profile, I ignore it.

I cut and paste Morrissey lyrics if that counts.  The ladies love a bit of Mozza.

She looks bravely and shyly up from her computer.
I had a burst of total shyness recently telling people about being ts. It 's always difficult and emotionally painful to me. In the end though, I'd rather live in truth and light than not .. I know who I am and at peace with it, even though at times some of the world can be a bit silly.
The worst thing is I dont really have to say. I just do because I'm a decent soul :)
So please,if anyone missed my message, sorry, it was shyness :)

what difference does it make? about 1percent of people i write can actually have the decency to write back. lazy and rude people dont deserve any more of my time than a copy and paste. email is free through this site and people are too inconsiderate to return it with a reply.

its rude as hell, when i spend my time thinking of the right thing to say, only to have my email deleted unread.

so tell me.... how would the receiver know my letter was a copy and paste unless they got into the knitting circle of busy bodies and started to compare notes.?!???

Wow, angry much? I can't imagine why the real women on this site, of which there are many, would steer clear of a gem like you.
ETA- perved your profile. After reading your journal entries, I say go with the cut and paste. Considering the frustration, anger, and negativity that damned near jumped off the screen as I was reading, it's not going to matter what your cmail says. Most females with the intelligence and self confidence you claim to seek are going to read your journal and do the "delete/ block two step".

[/quote]

You think I'm angry? Read some of the femdomme profiles. But, yes I'm angry. I'm angry about what the bdsm has become, and this site is the worst offender of them all. Many real women? Define real. Define many, for that matter. And I know the men are just as bad. I don't have to deal with them, though.

I could care less if most women women with intelligence and self confidence delete me. If they were that intelligent, they would see my profile for what it is and what it means. I understand that you don't. Maybe that's why you represent yourself with a close up of your chest. How apt.

Oh hun, your dropping your toys everywhere.

It is a very valid point that most intelligent women want intelligent correspondence. I don't even read profiles if it is a c&p message because to me it shows an inability to string a sentence together. The whole passive aggressive nature of you responses warrants that decision.

I'm so grateful I've got you to tell me "what the BDSM [sic] has become".

Oh, BTW - if you don't like this (free) site, there's a little button on your computer that will make all the horrible, nasty people go away.

I'm not a female submissive, but I think this is something that is more applicable to gender rather than role. 

The females on this site can spot a form letter very quickly.  We see a lot of them and it's not that hard to tell the difference between a generic message and a personal one.  That's why you're not getting a response.  If I respond to form letters at all, it's to point out the fact that I knew it was a form letter in the first place.  Then, I'm finished with that particular person.



You are putting the cart before the horse. I didn't start out writing form letters. I wrote literally hundreds of thoughful, personal messages to women who had profiles I found intruiging and who stated they were seeking something at least close to what I was offering. That was also before they inspired my journal entries. I got practically no responses, except from cam girls and African scammers. The few responses from "real" women I did get led to conversations which were clearly meant to keep me engaged on line as long as possible, with women who were not who they claimed to be and therefore had no intentions of actually meeting anyone.

I'm sorry to say, you just don't get it. You don't write to these female profiles, so how could you possibly understand? There is a whole culture of professional liars on this site, apart from the cam girls and African scammers. These women have no lives but the fictions they create on the internet. Many of them are highly intelligent and creative, and they have this whole fake profile thing down pat. It can take weeks or months to finally figure it out, which is their only objective, to keep someone engaged for weeks or months, before deleting the profile and starting a new one. Yes, I understand the men are just as bad, but just as you don't deal with women, I don't deal with men.

The only rational approach is to write form letters. That way, when they are deleted unread, or read and ignored, there has been no major investment on my part. I might add, that I say in the message that it's a form letter. I tell them why I do it, apologize for the necessity, and invite them to read my profile and respond. On the reare occasion when I come across a really exceptional profile, I will still write a personal letter...and get no response. And for those who think my profile turns them off, almost none of them even bother to look at it.

So the common factor in you getting no replies is your mail?

There are plenty of folks who have met their partners here, look up a forum and you will see, indeed I met my partner here. Rather than blaming the quality of the site/women maybe you should look at the common denominator (thats you by the way)

Do you think I haven't? I don't want to shock you, but I have friends. The real kind, not the chat room variety, and almsot all of them are in the kink community. All I have to do is even mention CM and I get "what the fuck are you doing in that cesspool?" or something similar. And I get it from doms, subs, male and female. So trust me, when it comes to looking in the mirror and wondering if it's me or all of you, the answer is obvious. If the foo shits....

So why am I here if this place sucks so much? Because I'm stubborn. Because it's free. Because I have met some decent people here, so I know there's a chance, however small, that I could meet the woman I'm seeking. Because a lot of women just discovering their bdsm inclinations come here. If I can tallk to them before their inbox fills up with cock pics or "I can turn you into the dirty whore you know you are" messages, and they leave in disgust, then maybe there is a chance I can convince them that not everyone in the bdsm community behaves the way they do on this site. Miracles do happen.

You are not entirely correct.  While I may not be looking for a female submissive in the capacity that you are, I have corresponded with a very good number of submissive females here.  There are seven of them (switch gals, I'm counting your submissive sides in that total) on this thread alone and I've even met one of them in person.  I hope to meet more of them as time and opportunity allows.  Do understand that I probably couldn't remember in some cases who initiated the first mail because in some cases, they are people I've traded notes back and forth over months or years.

That could be because I am a woman or it could be because it wasn't because I wasn't looking for them through the other side.  Unless I'm mistaken, it's been initial contact because either I wrote or they wrote something interesting on the boards and the conversations started from there.  In other words, it wasn't just a profile thing.  It was a person thing.

You never know.  That idea for an approach might benefit you in some way.

I once wrote an email that was kind of witty but it was a little generic. The woman I sent it to sent back a scathing reply about cut and paste (which it was not). I thought, well, why the hell not? So I cut and pasted it to three others, all of whom thought it was funny and we've kept in touch since.

Lesson learned, what one person thinks is C&P crap another finds titillating.

Mr. Angry poster above does have a point though. Between this and some other sites, my return rate is less than 1%, it can be a little frustrating because there's not even a critique saying why whomever has completely ignored you. Just dull empty space. To me it's the internet equivalent of throwing a drink in my face. I so rarely email anyone now, I'd rather chat on the forums, there you can get to know a lot more about somebodies personality compared to a couple paragraphs in a profile.

I never copy /paste.
Hardly go hunting for females that I have to paste an ad and sell myself. I just reply to their profiles or journals.
Prefer it a little more natural/unforced.

consider me the one percent that does. i do so not out of obligation but simply because i feel it is the right thing to do. according a standard i've created for myself, not the expectation or demand the other person may have written in his note. i'd be remiss if i didn't confess that many times the person is surprised i responded at all, and even comments on the nature of the reply as well.
