That's one of the most ridiculous things I've ever heard. This is a kink site. If you want to offer travel advice, I'm sure those sites exist, too.
You were in the forces and this is one of the most ridiculous things you've ever heard?
Were you in the "taking everything wayyyy too seriously" corps perchance?

And if we were on a website dedicated to model trains, would you expect someone to hold discussions with you about all topics other than model trains?
The dissonance here is staggering.
Gosh.. you getting dissonance too? <pondering face>

Do you reply to the junk mail you get at home?
You know, the pizza places, the insurance companies, etc etc?
You see no difference between mail automatically generated and that sent by a person? If you receive a handwritten note from someone, you read it and don't respond?
When I was in the military, and stationed overseas, schoolchildren would write to us often. The letters would be addressed "any soldier." The penmanship was terrible. The grammar atrocious. We never asked for that sort of attention. I hate kids.
Every single one of those letters was treasured. Everyone in the unit read each one...and while usually only one reply was sent to each, almost everyone signed each one, too.
Firstly... <tips hat> Thank you for your service. And I hope you take the gag about the "wayyyy too serious " corps in the spirit that it was intended. If you've done service in the forces, you're all right by me.
But, no, I really, really don't see any difference between the fucking stupid shit that pours into people's in boxes and the crappy junk mail that falls onto people's doormats. If there is any, it's that the junk mail has probably had more thought put into it.
So you really need to start by getting your head around the fact that not everyone crafts epicly inspiring intro emails such as yours doubtless are. So they get a bit jaded.
I have to say, that I have never noticed anything unusual at all about the number of people that don't reply here, compared with other sites. If anything my reply rate is better here than it was when I lurked on ALT. Now that was some time ago, and I think that I may have got a lot better at choosing who to email in the first place.
I do put some effort into my emails, and I get pretty fair results.
But as for the people that don't reply? Fuck, a lot of the time I say "don't worry about replying if you're not interested, I know you're getting a crap load of email".
It's almost rude to expect a reply in some senses.

If men have a problem with women that won't answer emails because of how your fellow males have behaved....I suggest you take it up with them rather than blaming us for not wanting the abuse that comes with telling someone "No, thank you".
Oh. My neigbor thinks all Mexicans are lazy and shiftless, because he once knew this Mexican one time who fit the bill.
Do you see how both you and my neighbor fail to use reasoning?
Nope, sorry, got to stop you there bro. Now you're failing to use reasoning, and to be honest, it's a little irritating.
If you are clever enough to keep yourself groomed the way you do - you're clever enough to see that this example is specious.
Firstly you're subtly equating not answering emails with racism... which would seem to be over egging your sauce a tad.
Second - and let's change the analogy a little, in order to make it a fuck sight better, and more comparable.
"If your neighbour hated apples, because after eating 7000 of the fuckers he'd discovered that in 6900 cases he was violently sick. Do you see how both you and my neighbor fail to use reasoning?"
Do ya see what I'm saying?
I'm sure none of us will convince you.... which at the end of the day is fair enough.
It could very well be that you have a very much greater sense of manners and good form than I have - and I salute you for it.
But for the love of god please remember this is a kink site.... the ones that don't reply are doing you a favour, because they'll be just the oikish, unmannerly, brutes that you're likely to find unnattractive anyway.
