I agree with Malkinius. The majority of slave profiles---yes, the majority--are abysmal, saying little or nothing.

So in both cases, Master or slave, people are people. Some just throw up a profile because they're curious, some are lazy, and some are full of unrealistic wishful thinking.

On the other hand....those poor profiles are themselves a message, aren't they.

i think it's not only the Dominant profiles but those of s-types, also, that sometimes have little if any details in them. When i was looking or if S/someone wrote to me, if i came across a profile with little or nothing in it, i just ignored the P/person. It's easy enough to do. After seeing enough profiles, i try to put some interesting tidbits in my own without being too "wordy." If S/someone wants to know more based on that, all T/they have to do is ask. ~smiles~

I have a major pet peeve about language/writing/grammar. I suppose that makes me unique (or neurotic, depending on your opinion)
Two words. Spell Check. Call me the word police if you must, but if your profile looks like it was typed up by your 6 year old, I'm not going to bother responding..

me too! It drives me nuts. When i get an e-mail from someone in my Yahoo & i hit reply, i have to force myself to not go back and fix their spelling mistakes before i answer them. It's really terrible & i know it, but i can't help it. E-mails massively full of misspelled words and so on just assault my brain! lol

Remember that not everyone knows how to "sell himself." It's a skill, and a lot of people don't have it, and were never taught it. Yes, someone who goes on about what he wants, and says nothing about who he is, is yellow-flagging. But a profile that reads, "Just a decent guy looking for an honest woman who is kinky as hell," might not be poetry, but the guy might have more substance than others who use fancy words.

If the written word isn't somebody's strong point, they'd be well advised not to focus on meeting people through the Internet. Why use a format that highlights a weakness rather than a strength?

Hey, that's my tag line. Kind of.

I think writing profiles are really hard because you're trying to appeal to an unknown audience. It's not like meeting someone face to face where you can start things off with a compliment or a common interest be it weather, the cashier getting the change wrong, whatever.

When I'm editing the train wreck that is my profile, I'm mindful that I don't want to bore a potential partner to death nor do I want them to have nothing to say to me either, whether that is from providing too little or too much information:

"I like Mexican food"
"I know, it's in your profile"
"er, do you like Mexican food?"
"That's in MY profile"
"oh..."

I don't know. My profile is a bit of a mess at the moment.

Whether belonging to a Dom or Sub, a crappy profile is a profound message in and of itself. It is unrealistic to expect witty reparte with a person who can barely mange a few checkboxes and a sentence or five describing themselves. It's even worse, I believe, to expect to be able to communicate in this medium with people who apparently can not write English as if it were even their third language.

I always make sure to reuse the words that a person spells incorrectly when I reply. If I chose to reply : D It might make me bitchy, but it makes me feel better on the inside. As far as lazy profiles...I have a lazy profile. I'm a real person, I just refuse to have laundry lists of things that I do in my vanilla life as well as my personal kink life. I figure that if someone wants to know, they can take the time to find out the old fashioned way, and talk to me.

Maybe because the net is "the wave of the future?" Maybe because it's how P/people get things done nowadays? Or maybe the P/person lives where there's not really any kind of kink functions going on? Could be a multitude of reasons, i guess.

The problem with a profile is that anyone can say anything in what amounts to a premeditated piece of self-proclaimed virtuosity. I prefer to form an opinion of a poster based on their posts. I can't go overboard on my profile for the same reason.

I like to check out some dom profiles sometimes just to see who is about. But sometimes I come across some that have little if any details that describe the person they are supposed to represent.

i took a lot of time and effort to write my profile and disclose some things about me and who I look for. In included details that seem significant, perhaps, to a budding relationship.

It would be helpful to find the same sorts of information on prospective doms.

The ones who really get to me are the ones who spell out precisely what they want and how i will kneel blah blah blah. And nothing about what they have to offer me. These people are so NOT going to be interesting to me, I mean, talk about egos being overinflated.

Its a two way street so why are some dom profiles so limited, i mean, last time I checked we didn't pay by the word?

Just my thoughts
1-I actually have a very personalized profile, mostly my journal, something I learned from people on here.
2-I don't give a slew of personal details for exactly that reason, they're personal. Want to get to know me, write and start a conversation.
3-I don't have a long list of what I will and won't do drawn out. I've been doing this a long time and have generally found that each relationship has it's own dynamics. By creating strict parameters out of the gate I may be limiting something that could have been magical.

I like the question, My profiles on sites tend to coincide with my mood.
Sometimes I get replys from women to my posts or ads, I wonder about them. Sometimes I will write something thats really out there and my in box is flooded with mail.Who are these women do they really know what type of man I am? The things that I would do to them ?

What is unique about me is that from an early age I realize that I was different.
When I was a kid I watched I dream of genie, I would wonder why Maj. Nelson didn't just bend Genie over the arm of the couch and spank her tender ass. I would have vivid dreams in which I was Maj. Nelson, wearing the blue air force uniform and living in coco beach with genie EXCEPT in my dream I would treat genie as my sub. I would make her suck my cock and spank her sweet ass. I can't tell you the number of times I had wet sheets in the morning.

When i was 14 ,I was a paperboy, one day one of the ladies on my route invited me in ,she was wearing a see through nighty. Her husband had recently died and she was needy. We began to talk about sex, and she was in her glory , I realized that she was getting hot . She asked me if I wanted her.....We made love and she taught me things about vanilla love making, after a few weeks of this , she began to express her need to be dominated, to be taken, I could have if I could take it, she taught me how to do things that I had only dreamed of and soon 2 of her lady friends were taking turns with me in the backroom. They would play cards and drink highballs and discuss the attributes that they felt I should have and the things I should learn. My job was to play the music, make the drinks and learn. They taught me rope tricks , spanking ,how to use a knife, the use of a flogger and so many other things about D/s.They would laugh and say that they wished they could see me when I was older, what kind of man I had turned out to be, they would say that they were training me not for my own edification but for some woman that they would never meet , they were doing it for her,they ruined me for vanilla bettys.
I am 43 now ....miss them so.

I have thirty years experience in BDSM and I'm interested in lots of non-BDSM stuff; music, travel, sports, art. I'm gainfully employed, funny and well-educated. I am NOT however wealthy nor well-built(don't have 30 inch biceps). This is definitely a turn-off for LOTS of female subs.
