Ok so when you look at a sub and consider them, what puts you off, what things instantly make you go "I am not taking on a sub like that?" equally what makes you want a sub?

Read the FAQ sticky up top. There are links to threads that will answer these questions for you.

It's hard to see in something like a profile or post though. But when a man is really good at something and confident about it, I find that really attractive -- it's a level of confidence I think that attracts me, because while I am very, very into making a man submit, I am not necessarily into "submissive men." I desire a man who will submit to me. That said, I look for men who are capable, confident (even if it is quiet confidence, and only in certain areas), etc. Especially if he is very good at something that I am not good at. Ie, a musician, or a certain kind of athlete, a performer. Someone who has a high level of competence at something and knows it - I find that extremely sexy. Even something like -- riding and tending to horses, for example. Something I have never done. Just a random thing that popped into my head the other day. Akasha

There are as many different answers as there are women. Personally, if I see bar hopping or cross-dressing listed among things he likes, my response is: Next!

thank you they are the sort of viewpoints i wanted!

I'm not looking for submissives right now, but I'd be a lot less likely to pursue a dynamic with someone who spends most of their profile putting themselves down. I'm not interested in a "worthless" s-type, I'm interested in someone with a lot of good qualities who knows they have them and wants to submit to me anyways. Their submission means more if they know the value of it. On a similar vein, someone who talks about nothing but sex/kink and who lists NO vanilla interests on their profile is not likely to get my attention - they come off as one dimensional, and I don't want a generic submissive. All of this is separate from incompatible kink/relationship goals stuff.

If anything on his "Lives For," "Loves," or "Likes" list is on my "Dislikes," "Hates," or "Hard Limit" lists, that's an automatic "no." If, in his photos, he is unkempt - scraggly facial hair, wrinkled/dirty/torn clothes (unless he's obviously been playing a sport and is dirty from it), hair that looks like it hasn't been washed or combed - that's a "hell no." If he doesn't write well, meaning he uses text speak or improper grammar (Ex. there vs. their vs. they're), if his profile is all about his kinky desires and contains nothing about what he has to offer or the type of relationship he wants, or if he uses language that indicates he is married/involved and cheating (e.g. using terms like "discreet" or "cannot host"), that's gets his profile hidden and possibly blocked.

Lucifyre -> RE: What puts you off? (4/22/2012 1:16:41 PM)
Hmm...on message boards things that put me off are onesidedness as stated above (only interested in discussing kink OR totally avoiding kink in conversation) Snarkyness and unneccessary meanness for the simple reason of being able to hide behind the internet. Frequent spelling or grammatical errors (no one is perfect, but screwing up every other word in every other sentance is aggrivating) One liners without explanation (I don't want to read a book, but three words in a post is useless IMO) That's just a few. Out in the real world the list is a lot longer, but things that come to mind right away are: bad hygene, bad attitude, not caring for ones self, not being willing to communicate with potential partners, not being transparent in importnant or close relationships (i.e hiding things that could be important or outright lying) Arrogance, self centeredness...yes, much longer list I could go on forever LOL

Alecta -> RE: What puts you off? (4/22/2012 2:12:53 PM)
There are many things, and to an extent dependant on my mood. The one universal is this: whether or not they are engaging ME, the person, the mind, the needs/wants/expectations particular to me; and not just the vague idea a Mistress, or an Asian, or female. Oh, and poor communication skills. Seriously, everything has spellcheck built-in these days. At least do me the courtesy of pretending you and I would be able to communicate.

Okay, you must mean things I can see right away without already knowing the person?? Lets see.... I absolutely do not like bad hygiene, slobbiness and smartassiness. I do really appreciate neatness, confidence, good hygiene. When I get to know a person, I appreciate honesty, integrity, confidence, common interests, a good personality. Looks are not everything, personality is. If I'm looking at a profile, unkemptness and a slobby trashy-looking background turn me off, as does a laundry list of his kinky interests and nothing more. A profile that tells me more about who a man is, vanilla as well as kinky, is a plus, as I like to know about the whole person. I also do not like form letters. Every woman wants to feel special and form letters just don't cut it in that department. On the other hand, a well thought out letter that has a personal touch to it, showing that he's read my profile and commented on something in it other than my kinks is very much appreciated. NBMG

PeonForHer -> RE: What puts you off? (4/22/2012 7:02:23 PM)
FR It's a shame that this question wasn't addressed to sub-males, about what puts them off about certain femdoms, too (as, at first and from the thread title, I thought it might be). That would have made it somewhat new and interesting, perhaps even to the femdoms reading. Very, very occasionally, or so I think I've noticed, you do get femdoms who'll zero in on particular sorts of subs, and wonder why they're not able to get, or keep, the desired sorts of subs' interest. This, to me, is a sad state of affairs. A bit of communication between sensitive, kind and thoughtful people on opposite sides of the kneel required, I think. Well, just saying.

Anyone that approaches me 'kink first' and hasn't the gumption to carry on a decent conversation. Anyone that approaches me to get their kink wants met without any consideration to what I want. What makes me want them........them wanting to know ME, take the time, initiative, communication with ME, not just some random kinky person. Someone that is interested in pleasing me and serving me.
