This thread doesn't match what I'm looking for but I thought I'd post to it anyway.

Why get so irritated with men trying to find some common ground with you?

Any guy with intestinal fortitude will try to overcome a woman's initial objections. As long as they are tactful, I think their efforts are laudable.

Next, how much effort does it take for you to say "no thank you."

I don't get why you feel so put out and put off.

I have a hard time with " he is hoping" I think it is more of the over inflated egos "oh well I can charm my way!" especially when they have the lack of blood flow going to the brain, lol. I drove truck for 10 years and it was very rare to hear another woman talk on the CB radio. I learned quite a bit about how the male brain works.

I won't come right out and say my interests do not match a woman's, whom I'm trying to contact.  Considering I'm submissive and about pleasing the woman, why should my interests come into play at all?  Yes, there are things I like and if she asks I'll tell her but the core of my satisfaction comes from her satisfaction.

I'm not going to turn-away a woman, who may not be into strapons or forced femme whereas I am, because who knows what I'm turning away?  The woman of my dreams, maybe?  An ultimately compatible woman, who will completely dominate me and own me and I would never have a clue if I didn't bother to email her or answer her email just because she isn't into strapons/

Not that you will care, or that it matters one way or the other, but this is the first post you have made that I am really impressed with.  I wish more men out there would grasp what you have just written.

I've read some of the posts here, and being a sub, I can offer this:  sometimes there is one minor thing that  we don't match with  on a Dom/mes page.  If its just one thing, then that could be something overlookied.  I generally describe myself as a short thick sub who is flirty, devoted, and more interested in Daddy Doms than sadists.  However, if I read a profile, and the Dom has a thing fo maso subs, I contact them. Sometimes  it's just to comment ontheir profile, sometimes its to ask what is the least level of pain they've inflicted.  Generally, when we subs contact Doms, and recognize that we arent a perfect match, it's because we fit 95% and would like to show that maybe, just maybe, that last 5% can be brought out one day.

Just my penny

oreo,

I can totally respect and appreciate that approach.  I'm more than willing to work with percentages of incongruency to flesh out just how we fit together and where the unmet needs are on both sides of the equation.  (I also embrace that I will not necessarily be 110% of what someone seeks in a partner.)

Werent you the Domme that posted about being so irritated (I dont remember your exact words besides the scolding) when a sub did exactly what your doing now? Posting about your emails on the message board? As I recall you went off on a rant about how you found that displeasing and undesireable, etc. yet here you are doing the exact same thing. I usually wouldnt say anything and would just quietly observe but I have noticed the hypocritical behavior in your posts for quite some time even though I maybe painting a big red bullseye on my ass,  I feel I should point this out. I understad that as a Domme you feel you have more lattitude with such things and I actually agree with this, it is afterall an S&M board. But I feel that it is a little beyond arrogant to slam someone else for this and then turn around and blatatenly do it yourself a month or so later.

I actually send a lot of messages to women with the disclaimer, I know I'm not what you're seeking, not because I think that my other qualities are what she might want but because I want her to know that I've read over her profile and information AND REALIZE I'm not what she wants, so my message has more to do with actually communicating with her on something she may have written in her profile or on the boards. I understand completely that we're not going to hook up EVER, but I make that disclaimer so she doesn't think that I'm trying to sneak my way in even though I realize she isn't seeking someone like me.

I've never used such wording to try to somehow convince a woman that I'm what she seeks when I'm not what she seeks. I've learned a long time ago that if a woman has a parameter I don't meet, then I really don't intend to waste any time trying to convince her otherwise because she's obviously not for me either.

i honestly dont understand this.  my first quest (of sorts) when i began looking was to find the best match between the dominant i chose to talk to, and myself.  i know i'm not easy to deal with at times, i know that because of my life circumstances and health that things can be difficult. 

i had to be careful that the dominant i decided to be with would be able to deal with those things.  and i assume that the dominants (male and female) out there have similar things they consider.  why then would i try to fit myself into the mold they have said they want if that isnt at all what i am?

cause no matter how enamoured i am with the idea of being seen on the arm of Master Hunky Hardbody, at the end of the day i'm still not his ideal of a 5'10", natural blonde, size 6, 24-year old woman with 40DD-24-36 measurements.  hey, i'm a woman too!  close enough, right?  (NOT)   i'd still be setting myself up to be at the best, ignored or rejected politely, at the worst humilated (non-consentually) and made to feel a fool for contacting Master Hunky Hardbody with my request to be considered when i am not anywhere near his standard.

I get a lot of email, and sometimes I get those too.  If the sender has complied with the directives in my profile I will respond.  I simply state that we are not a match and wish s/he success as they continue their search.  I think those who send this type of email expect a response in favor of their effort.  Oh well...

No, if you're addressing me with this particular comment......I think you have the wrong person.

I know I'm not what you are seeking....But I do possess a cunt, mouth and an asshole....Can we talk?"


They are usually right on both counts.

I heart you.

This pisses me off so much.  It'd be like if you hated the colour red, your best friend got you a red jumper and went, "Well, I know you hate the colour and probably the style, but at least it's a present!"

The title of this thread has been the recurrent theme in my inbox these past few days.

Each author had their own "exception" to my rules -- age, marital status, what they were seeking.

Each letter clearly acknowledged that the writer was clear on what I wanted, chose to disregard it and air his own needs.  What was more distressing is that the author went on, in each of these missives (all from different individuals) to tell me that they were sure that once I talked to them that I'd surely want them serving me!

Presumptuous?  Rude?  Brazen?  Selfish?  Disrespectful?

********************************************
Folks are constantly complaining that they don't get responses to their emails here on CM.  So here's a request -- what could possibly be said to these folks who write emails like this?  Does it make any sense to even bother to respond?  Do they deserve it back with both barrels of the shotgun, or do they need the firm hand of redirection telling them where they erred? 

For the guys -- can you give me some insight as to why this happens?  Why would you write to someone and waste their time if you know full well that you don't qualify for what they seek?  Are you just looking for jollies or is there some hidden "thing" in your sending this sort of email?

Among the dregs, I get messages from submissive men. And they don't take "no thank you" very well. What am I supposed to do with them?

I mean we could play Scrabble or do the crossword together...

Next, how much effort does it take for you to say "no thank you."

I don't get why you feel so put out and put off.


Damn, someone beat me to it.

I'm currently involved with a woman, whom my first words to her were exactly this "I enjoyed reading your profile, and seeing the world a little through your eyes. I would have written earlier, but I tend not to write when clear 'You must be this high to ride' signs are posted."

Her profile explicitely stated that she was only attracted to men over 6'2" (I'm 5'10".)  If I had been deterred by that one and only one line, I wouldn't have the fantastic relationship with her that I do today.

The advice I give to people who are frustrated that they are not getting the mail they desire or feel they deserve, is that they should be more aggressive with their mail filtering controls, remove their photos or most of their information, or simply deactivate their profiles; you can still write people, and they can write you back. 

Beyond that, I know I write people whom I clearly have no interest in either having a relationship, or meeting.  Usually it's because I liked something they had to say and wanted to compliment them on it, or because I enjoyed an exchange with them on the message boards.  You'd be surprised at how many emails I have with blue names on it.

I agree and I'm happy to make friends with anyone. I'm talking about submissives who are adament that they want to get to know me because they think I'm "hot," "they know we'd have a great time together, blah, blah, blah." Those that make it clear that their interest is beyond that of acquiring a new friend.

It's not a big problem in the scheme of things, I'm just surprised at how often it happens.
