ORIGINAL: PeonForHer Is this a question about the latest spate of barely-potty-trained-looking 'femdoms'/'femsubs' who've been cmailing recently? All of them having pics that make them look neither subby or dommie and wanting to take things straight to external email? It is, but more specifically are they even successful at thier endeavour. As they don't read profiles, I guess it would be a little much to expect them to actually come in here and actually say anything meaningful Alright, I'm eighteen, so I feel that I need to step in about this. First of all, please don't get into attacks on physical attractiveness or how young or old someone looks. Yeah, some of us are young, and therefore we look it. But there's no need to be offensive about it. If someone joins this site, they've gotta be of age (they're supposed to be, anyway). And personally, I tend to look more at pics of people in vanilla settings, where their personality as a human shows through more than their subbiness or Dominance. I'm sure many Doms, both young and old, get sick and tired of seeing profiles in which the only pic is of the male sub's penis or female sub's breasts. True Doms look for more than that. They want to see the personality of their potential submissive shine through. So the pics should show that, not just a mug shot of the genitals like some sort of ice-cream-truck display. And if someone asks to communicate with someone else through external email rather than CM, hey, maybe they just don't feel comfortable jumping on this site every day, or can't because of location. So, yes, a lot of people who claim to be young make profiles just to try and find someone just as desperate as they are, so do an equal amount of people who are much older than they are. I myself get something like ten messages a week from 'Dominants' who ask if I'd like to come to their place as their permenant live-in slave. Sure, they can sound romantic as all hell, but hey...I'm taken. Says so quite clearly in my profile. So honestly, it's a moot point about reading profiles; age has nothing to do with it. More importantly, a fair amount of young people who come on here aren't here looking for a Dom/sub immediately, or even at all. This is a community, after all; nowhere on the site does CM claim to be some sort of exclusive dating site. eHarmony can fill that niche. Many of us are just here to make friends and share opinions. Yes, I may be young, but does that make my opinion any less valid than someone twice my age? I think not. By the same logic, the success of anybody's endeavors to find a partner rely not on how they look, the types of pictures they post, or on their age; it all relies on maturity, compatibility, and effort. You'll find that those qualities exist in few people, age and gender nonwithstanding. Hopefully the people who judge others based on superficial traits will learn to look past them in order to bring more enjoyable people into their lives and their hearts.
