I agree with the others. If I had one nitpick it would be to do with your friends list - three pictures of female butts, all in a row. I find that offputting. Of course if these are people that you are actually friends with don't ditch them, but if they're just someone you spoke to once ages ago I'd get rid of them. Even though you didn't upload the photos yourself it might make you look like a picture collector and makes me compare myself to these other women you obviously like.

I was going to say something about you being an ass-man based on the friend's list, but that seems to be well addressed. Make friends with locals and that will naturally change.

So I'm just going to think out loud. The advice may sound cruel, but meaningful critique always does.

If this is cruel, you're not trying hard enough. Thanks for the genuine thoughts, though.

1) Take hunting off the "loves" list unless you REALLY love and NEED hunting in your life. It doesn't read as "Loves: Hunting." It reads as "HEEEEEEEE-YAAAA!! GETT'R DUKES ON WE'RE GOIN' MUDDIN' I TELL YOU WHAT!" That, or "I love killing."

If you were a woman, and this jumped out at you this way, and you were sufficiently anti-hunter or whatever, than we probably wouldn't get on so well in the long haul, I'd rather screen this out up front. Though if a bunch of women said agreed with you, I might change it anyway.

2) Flip the positions of the kinks you're into and the length/depth of a relationship. First you want a long term relationship, not a fling, 24/7 but blah blah blah.. THEN gagged, spanked, diapers.

Done

3) You get one sentence about your cats, frogs, and orchids. Make it count. I suggest "Of orchids, poison dart frogs, and cats the battle royale left two victors: Whiskers and PawPaw."

4) You're a tea-fucking-connoisseur. Have some showmanship. Tea is not an addiction. You ever suck dick for tea?! You're a bad SHUT-YO-MOUTH. Be proud of your knowledge. I bet you know not to put leaves into boiling water.

Changed, though I do, actually, put the appropriate tea in the appropriate temperature of water, which, in some cases , is straight up boiling ;)

5) You're a big guy. I'm chubby, so I can say it. But you gotta find a flattering picture and put it up. Can't leave people wondering how you wear your 220. They'll assume the worst.

Photo added.

6) I had to look up Tubb and Duncan. Turns out they were big country stars of the 50's and 60's. I kind of like them. Your first sentence means a lot in a profile. Is this so fundamental to you as a person you want to lead with it? If so, I would advise you give a genre as well. Let's try to take "I sing along to Ernest Tubb and Tommy Duncan on the radio in my truck" and make you come across like a romantic for the good ol' days. Unless you were black, then those were rough ol' days.

"What could be better than rolling down the highway singing with the radio to Ernest Tubb and Tommy Duncan and other country from before my time? Doing it together."

7) Dislikes aerobics (Expert)... There's a story there.

Yes, but not much of one, nice of you to notice. Tried to leave at least some mystery in there.

Ask most people at a BBQ if they are against hunting and without a touch of irony, they will say yes.
