Now I would take out all the things where you say that it's not a requirement but nice to have. To avoid a thin/fat hijack, think of it this way. Say you had in your profile this: I just swoon over redheads, but it's not a requirement. How do you think all the brunettes, blondes, etc., are going to react to that? Do you think any one of them will give you a chance? Doubtful, because you've just told them they will always be second-best. You can say, "I go for the athletic type", or "I prefer slim women", or "I prefer active women" or something like that, without the negative, second-best label of "but it's not a requirement." Also, I would take out all the beginner/expert designations in your interest list, unless it is VERY important (such as your martial arts). When I see someone who says they are an expert in getting messages, I just roll my eyes. Same with expert in walking (for instance). I would also take off your dislikes (bird watching and fishing) as well as your hates (volunteerism). The likelihood that you will show an interest in a secretly bird watching, fishing volunteer girl is slim to none, and including them is just one more negative that you don't really need. Cali
