Any and all criticism welcome. I kinda feel weird describing myself as attractive and intelligent. Not so heavy on the self promotion.

So sorry, your profile hasn't been viewable. First tried pulling up a[nother] profile back around 7:30 this evening and got this error message:
An error occurred.
Sorry, the page you are looking for is currently unavailable.
Please try again later.
If you are the system administrator of this resource then you should check the error log for details.
Faithfully yours, nginx.

The latest was "Uh-oh, something went wrong! Error Code: 503"

It isn't you, it's the site acting glitchy again.

It's well-written and if you keep it along those lines when you write or answer emails, you should be okay.

For what it's worth: I was able to get to your profile.

I was wondering about that, both how you accessed it - you must have used the quick search feature, because that worked for me - and why you had no further comments.
(Btw, trying to pull up the full profile was possible once the quick search by screen name came up.)

OP, I was surprised to see that you are a Dom. I thought it was a submissive female who had posted, going by your main profile pic, which I'll get back to shortly.

Your profile text reads well, and you did a good job with that.
I was logged out when viewing, so I didn't get to see whether you had listed any Interests. If you do/have, just make sure you put down a few vanilla Interests and not just BDSM ones. This not only lends additional insight into your character and gives a basis for better comparison as to compatibility, but it sends the message that your life does not revolve around your kinks and fetishes (and is therefore consistent with what you wrote).

Unfortunately, your main profile pic will attract men to your profile. Think of it as being a symbolic or literal representation of YOU, not of what you are seeking (and that can also turn off potential ladies, if they do not identify with the female photo subject).

You will also find that there are many women who are of the opinion, myself included, that it is in bad taste to upload photos of other women onto your profile, unless
(a) You are not seeking, and the photo is from your personal album;
(b) You also have the permission of the other party to show their picture on this site;
(c) Your photo gallery selection is not in bad taste or potentially offensive to the type of woman you want to attract; and last but not least,
(d) Using pics you found on the Internet is generally frowned upon (as there may be a question of copyright infringement -- you may find yourself locked out of your profile if they get reported by other CS users), with the exception of the avatar gallery which is accessible under "My Profile" on this forum side.

I clicked on either the name above the avatar or the avatar, itself. I honestly forget which.

If I have any comments on anyone's profile, I share them privately.

No problems experienced today so far on this side* or with clicking onto profiles (haven't logged in on the main profile side though).

Yesterday from 6:30pm onwards, I ran into login/logout glitches on both sides, full profiles not coming up, delayed reaction times. 500 & 503 Error Codes.

* There still appears to be a long delay in posting, and then a shorter delay in being able to view what I just posted. <sound of crickets>

As with dreamlady, I expected the profile to be for a submissive female or a transvestite (the TV part) when I looked at the picture and the name.

The search settings should help KYTV avoid being seen as something other than a dominant male. Between text color and the fact that very few people are searching for both dom leaning men and sub leaning women, it's usually pretty easy to tell who's behind a profile. Plus, dom men with artsy B&W pics of women in submissive poses are not uncommon. A little declasse, but not uncommon.

Which does lead to the first of two big suggestions for KYTV. Browse a broader variety of profiles. Especially, but by no means limited to, other dom men around your area and age. (Although since you'll likely be going after many of the same women as many couples and a fair number of switches, that's an extra good reason to browse beyond just other dom men.) You'll start to notice certain themes. Realizing what sub women see over and over and over again can be handy if you want to avoid blending into the masses. At least so far you've avoided "I am Dark Lord DomlyDom" and "why are women so rude" (don't ever be those guys), but realizing what archetypes are out there can be enlightening. Keep in mind that there's a propensity for exaggeration - 6' tall professionals making north of six figures are nowhere near as common as people who like to fib - but overall styles are easier to pick out.

(Although you may also see a lot of people with copyright notices or similar legalese in their profiles. I don't know how other people feel about those, but to me they always come across wrong. I've never seen anybody actually monitor for violations and then take the perpetrator to court, so those read more like silly repost memes than something personal.)

Next up is the classic writer's standby. Show, don't tell. Ideally using specifics; everybody loves music, but Taylor Swift fans and Bal-Sagoth fans don't necessarily see eye to eye. You can't necessarily show that you're attractive without showing what you look like, but clever writing shows intelligence far better than saying "I promise I'm smart". If you need a little help finding a writing style that suits you better, it might be worth reading some authors you like or listening to music with sharp lyrics to help get you into the right headspace.

I'd recommend deleting your first paragraph. It's defensive, and unneeded. Your maturity will be judged by your words and actions, not your protests.

Thanks for reading, and also your advice. I edited the paragraph to sound less apologetic. I agree with you completely. I was really trying to make the point that age is not necessarily an indication of maturity.

Hey thanks for reading! I will take your advice seriously.

Your last paragraph sort of confused me though.

I understand what your saying. Can you give me some examples from my profile that aren't up to par in regards to writing style? Or are you saying I need to give more examples of my interests and be specific about them? I'm asking this honestly and thanks for your time!

Oh for Gods sake, get some balls.
Get a mind.
I personally don't give a crap if anyone agrees with me.
In the rare occasion it does, I'm happy.

Understand this.... Bye and bye... And goodbye.
