Impression killer

May 14 2016

Dear Forumites In your profile reading/screening experiences, what are the things that you read in profiles that instantly kill your impression of the profile owners? Recently, I came across a quite nicely written profile of a man's, whose profile gives clear details of what he wants and likes from this site, etc. and I was obviously impressed, thought I would send him a message, then there is one line in his "About me" section where the man in question stated something like this "please no gay guys to contact me, yuck!!!!"........I must say, I almost fell off my chair to see such a disrespectful closure of a sentence, in particular the use of the word "yuck" follows by multiple exclamation marks! 👎🏼👎🏼 what a disappointment! Now, anyone who knows me enough to know who I am, they know that respect is a big thing for me and to see someone has reacted towards homosexual people as "yuck", it is no doubt an impression killer to me! So disappointed I am and without a question, I saved my message for someone more respectful and well mannered :) So, what have you seen in profiles that got your impression up for one second, then ruined it the next? - Posted from rhpmobile

    is that stupid Sydney University crap. If I see that or something similar on someone's profile it immediately puts me off, no matter how good the rest of the profile is.

    Everyone has their likes and dislikes, but I also would find the term "yuck!!!" to describe a persons lifestyle choice to show ignorance and small mindedness. Very possible they are narrow minded in other areas of their life too.

    I dont like the Sydney university thing but it's not a total deal breaker if everything else is good. I would of been put off by the yuck part too. I saw one recently where it was like I don't like those who have sticks up their arses or think that they are better than everyone else.. that was a mood kill. Oh and I dont like seeing the whole 'just broke up with my partner 2 months ago looking for fun.. ' i just dont see the need for me to know that you just broke up with someone. If it comes up in conversation then fine but not in a profile. I also really really dislike - no strings attached

    Good for you for posting your concerns... it is unfortunate that we still live in a world full of prejudicial and judgemental people. I'm often put on the back foot when I read profiles here albeit never quite sure if there is a definitive reason or simple instinct. We all have the right to choose.

    that we are judging people based on 1 word and some exclamation marks???? we are all different and we say we understand that yet we cannot give that extra amount of grace, consideration to others when we read stuff online? dude might have written "please no gay guys to contact me, yuck!!!!" Does that make him a HORRIBLE PERSON? One might not agree or or favour their choice of words and might find it disrespectful is because we view it through our own eyes - our own values perspectives etc- but does that mean that person is a bad person? we all have things we don't like.. I could put "Please no couples to contact me as I don't enjoy company of women, yuck" - am I then a horrible person?????? just for saying "yuck"??????????????? I do not understand the world of internet ......

I didn't say the man in question was not allowed to choose what he likes and dislikes, nor did I have a go at the guy as a person! I just find that to put in the word "yuck!!!" in a profile is simply unattractive! Am I not allowed to dislike this kind of behaviour, SYDnobarbie? :)

    smoking and lots of ask me is a total deal breaker but until yesterday I have never come across a profile that was very off putting. In fact I did reply to the simple message about wanting to chat by saying I'm well, thanks for asking and a chat would have been nice until I read your profile. Very anti women!!!! And although I do understand the frustration of some men....and women....and couples on here the profile was, IMO, venomous towards women. So nice respectful message....vs venomous profile

    Much as I like people being relaxed and easy going, I take a back step if they look like a party animal, you know when every single picture has a drink in their hand, off their face drunk, or worse, poking their tongue out or doing the kissy face as for the written part, it's usually a combination of pictures that are a bit suspect or that don't appeal, and what I read. I'm not a big fan of template 'I'm a sexual animal' etc although I make allowances for new profiles. It can take them a while to get their profiles set up properly. Negativity would be a turn off though for sure and baggage, I run from that

    Yes, the said person could of used his vocabulary better, however, some people are still homophobic, that's their choice. Online seeking is to me a total waste of time trying to judge/decypher if someone suits you or not. Unless you meet the person, only then can you 100% have an informed opinion of someone. I've met people who have "ask me" and Ive met people "just looking for sex" and I've met those who take the time and blah blah on their profile. Some have been wonderful people and some have been twatwaffles. It's all to subjective and allows for instant judgements. That is just my experiences and thoughts. I'm not here to be attacked or belittled. Find another moving duck to shoot down. Ta. - Posted from rhpmobile

    For clarifying your point made in your first comment. I like and appreciate constructive discussion and thank you for taking the time to make your point clearer :) Yes, it took only 1 word to take my impression and interest away from this said profile because, words are important to me as they paint a picture to me when I read them. Therefore, to see someone has literally put in the word "yuck!!!" to emphasise his disliking of homosexual people out loud (in writing), it is not a respectful vibe I receive because, what if a homosexual person, who had struggled for so long to come out, saw that kind of expression towards their lifestyle choice, imagine how would they feel? I know it's an individual's choice to choose how people want to interpret words, but it doesn't hurt to be a bit more sensitive and mindful of what we say, and what effects would our words bring on other people. Don't you agree? :) I am also not having a go at you, SYDnobarbie, I am just trying to explain why one word would matter so much to me :) perhaps because of my English language barrier, I can't seem to always be able to express my view about certain things without bringing negativity into it 😛 and this has proven that words are too powerful and can have the opposite effect if not carefully used :) - Posted from rhpmobile

It's not like we are desperately seeking company more complimenting what we already have, so unless they actually fit our criteria with a good well written descriptive profile (a good profile to us shows a creative person) we make no exceptions and why should we. Everybody has dislikes and everybody has a choice so why not be picky?

I too have learnt several languages as we did move around a bit when we were growing up due to my parent's professions. English is my first language but my fathers native tongue is Spanish and mom is SEAsian language (dont want to name it as may be giving away too much). Living in different continents in Asia, North America and Europe means I have to pick up the language or even other form of English (read NOT strayan) in order to blend in for work and social occasions. I find that even if I am fluent in some other languages, I do misread or misunderstand some subtle messages or points that only a native speaker could understand as they would be able to pick up the nuance of the language. But I have a go and we all have a good laugh. Lots of good stories to be told how I get myself in trouble when first learning and speaking French overseas. That is for another post. Lol On topic, there are just too many and I will be back to short list them. Most of them been mentions above. Cheers.

    profiles/posts by people with multiple errors of the same kind, suggesting that the mistakes are not simple typos or autocorrect creating an auto-error (e.g. loose v lose, there v their v they're, you're v your, then v than) * Those leave me with the impression that in person you'd "aks" questions, think Chernobyl was a "nucular" reactor, and use "youse" as a plural. Now, youse might be real top cunts, philanfropits and good people who save puppy dogs and never subject your Facebook friends to Candy Crush invitations, but to me those things are like nails dragging down the blackboard (though I actually don't find the "nails on a chalkboard/blackboard" noise a problem the way some do :p ) * where English is their first language.

It is evident to me when people have English as a second language in their responses/profiles, I have absolutely no issue with that! I do have an issue with people who are sloppy and lazy with their language use! Call me a snob but a lazily written response/profile on a sex/dating site is instant turnoff/impression killer and we go no further! Mary xx

    Sweetgem you sweetie. I totally got the intent of your thread. People seized on your example unfortunately. The word "Yuk". Its not the word itself. Its the intention of its use. The user is obviously homophobic. The fact that he is homophobic is my turnoff. But i have my big girl panties on so i just swipe left . I'm not offended, just disappointed. Its 2016. But i would be offended if he had said it to me. Thats the difference. Back on topic. Its "Ask me". Maybe not one say for example relationships. Some situations need explaining..... But several ask mes indicates something else. They are wasting my time by having to ask And i hate timewasters........ This is starting to compound itself. I should stop.......

    ...I will put forward a perspective which has not yet been offered by others, and which in some ways relates to the thread concerning female only venues, events etc. Firstly, I would suggest the person with offending profile (with the comment: "Yuck"), clearly exercised poor judgement in his choice of words. Everyone has opportunity to think and consider their words before they put those words to voice. We all have even more opportunity when communicating via keyboard! Also though, I would say it is not just worthwhile, but important to remind yourself that as much as you may wish others held the same views/values/opinions/manners as you, it frequently is simply not the case. None of us ever are likely to change that. People have enormous capacity to offend. Some will do so quite deliberately, others may be found completely ignorant of the affect their words and actions have on others. Whatever the case, just as we all have opportunity to choose the words we offer in conversation, we also have opportunity to choose how we react to what we see and hear. (I still find it incredibly difficult to suppress what I'd really like to say at times. I frequently fail in that endeavour. Fuckin' Fuckin' Fuck Fuck!! Bastard! Bass Turd! Sometimes Base Turd! With nine years of lower-deck Naval vocabulary training, you can be sure I can swear like a trooper. You can take the boy out of the Navy, but you can't take the Navy out of the boy, as they say). It may well be the owner of the offending profile is indeed homophobic. Also it is true to say attitudes to gender and sexuality have been changing over recent times. I think it worth questioning the reasons someone might harbour such feeling toward homosexual people. This is where you might draw a parallel to the attraction some women have for the concept of female only places and events. Some of those women may feel threatened by a male presence in the gym for example because they do not appreciate leering men and unwelcome sexual advances. Some of those women may have been subject to this behaviour before. Perhaps worse. Perhaps as young girls. Most people would surely understand and appreciate such hurt may live long in the memory. Perhaps forever. The prospect of a sweaty, leery man having a perve at the gym might be expected to evoke a "Yuck" response from some women (likely many in my estimation!), if not actual fear. Similarly, a sexual advance from a man might evoke such response from another man who has previously been subjected to unwanted, or even outright predatory behaviour. I think there are some circumstances where people have been damaged by other people to such degree that it should probably really come as no surprise there is a loss of trust. Perhaps even respect. Many of these people would likely struggle to confront the source of their trauma, much less seek to understand the emotions or motivations of those they perceive to have offended against them. Now, I do not suggest that all gay men are paedophiles, or even that all paedophiles are men, that all victims are either girls or boys. Rather, I would suggest there are all manner of people out there of both genders (and even transsexual) with a propensity for predatory behaviour of one sort or another. I should note I refer here not only to predatory sexual behavior. These people tend not to show outward signs of such tendencies; more often having gone to great lengths over long periods of time actively suppressing any tell tale signs. All of that said, I will reiterate what I have said previously. I think all of society is far better served by more, not less open communication, discussion and debate. I would consider any reversion to segregation or suppression as a major step backwards. P.S. I am not the creator of the profile in question, but I will confess I am a recovering homophobe. I was never sexually molested, but that was not for lack of trying on the part of several individuals separated by time and space. Several times through my childhood and into adulthood I have been subjected to unwanted sexual advances from men. Consequently, I have empathy for others (of either gender) when I notice they are not comfortable with the approach of a would-be suitor. I understand it can be a really "Yuck" feeling, though I'm quite sure nowadays I am better able to express myself (even if I do swear a bit much sometimes). I sometimes might be considered a bit fucking rude, but then, what's more offensive?

    In this world of emailing and instant gratification people don't take the time to put pen to paper and write for the sake of writing. We don't communicate or look people in the eye for the simple pleasure of communication, so sad! We are all guilty of saying and doing the wrong thing at times.Emails...

    I find that people who fill out the profile criteria by using the generic examples that rhp provide and fail to update them at a latter date anoy me purely because Im left to guess what they are really like and do I contact them because they like" coffee with friends"I mean everyone likes coffee with friends,and to say" hey I see you like coffee with friends,wow me too! we must be soul mates "seems really false and boring. Please people if your serious about meeting someone dot the I's and cross the T's Otherwise I will be left to wonder why.....and you will probably be bombarded by people who may not even be interested in you purely because they have no real impression of your actual self. Must update my profile now.... 3 line descriptions.. Haters goanna hate😜 - Posted from rhpmobile

    .....he wasn't homophobic but just doesn't personally like having sex with men and that's what he found yuck, not the actual people who did?

    And if I saw that sentence my first thought would be "yuck" and closing the profile. Not because of their sexual preference but because it doesn't sit well with me - my preference for meeting open minded people. As far as impression killers go things like "I can make any lady squirt at least 5 times without failure" and "I will lick pussy all night, making women cum like they never have before" etc turn me right off. Firstly - don't you have anything more interesting to fill your profile with and secondly - I'm not for being someone's challenge, keeping a tally of orgasms, just being a pussy on legs to conquer.

    To actually answer your question, for me it occurs when you see the profile in the listing, with a possibly good headline opening, and once you check out the profile, all it comes down to is one of two scenarios.Either it is full of "ask me" for every option, or further down the profile it is full of the template stuff in two or three lines, such as has been mentioned 'like having coffee with friends' or 'like shopping'. Crikey, give us a break !It if really can't be bothered writing a few lines about yourself, why bother coming here in the first place ? Tall
