Internet dating is like selling a car
Do you need to post pics? If I were to use a dating service again I'd go with an ad in the Guardian SoulMates section. Does that need a picture these days? When I used it it was just a recorded message.
Personally I'd prefer not to have pics prior to meeting, but then I didn't want to know the gender of our babies either, so maybe it's just in my nature to like surprises. I'm pretty sure that asking to meet women who are fit and outdoorsy is probably sufficient to turn up a few nice looking ones.
Of course you have to post pics! I need to get across my 'foxy lady' image.
Would not consider meeting anyone unless I had seen a pic.
I need to see that they have brushed their hair, shaved, made a bit of an effort.
Edit: some of these older blokes have no bl**dy idea. Their name is down for the old folks home or with the cardiac surgeon cos all they want to do is cook/eat in restaurants!
shaved
Back, sack and crack?
Auntie C-G, you have too high an opinion of men.
Restaurants = get you drunk without you noticing
Cooking for you = you won't taste the Rohypnol
Wanted
Good women to cook, wash lycra and make cakes. Must be good in bed and have a niche bike. (Singlespeed a bonus)
Own teeth not important, please send photo of bike
zokes - slow down.
Moses - are you insinuating that I'm being cynical about men? You're right!
Tiger - this is the 21st century, catch up mate.
And why is a singlespeed a bonus?
l do not regularly wax my scrotum or own an Audi TT
I would also add the caveat "Sorry I am currently unable to send money to Eastern Europe and now have a tremendous fear of the Minsk accent."
That probably lowers your odds, but will save you time...

The whole premise is that the gentleman is more interested in his hobby than the women in question. It's a very poor attempt at humour and in no way should be taken seriously.
The singlespeed is a reference to the fact that niche bike snobbery is alive and well on STW.
21st century darling but we still have to explain the jokes
Silly me! Women aren't supposed to have hobbies but, seeing as you've asked, my singlespeed is an Inbred 853 steel.
Actually I can accept that I'm weird ... and that's why I can't be ar$ed any more!
Silly me! Women aren't supposed to have hobbiesWhy not? it's good everybody should have hobbies
but, seeing as you've asked,Nope, didn't ask
my singlespeed is an Inbred 853 steel.As opposed to those dried custard 853s?

I merely made a bad joke (and a tongue in cheeky one) and totally unprovoked was told to get with the program with rolly eyes, now I can accept being told to get with it but rolly eyes well that just taking the biscuit..
Women ... don't you just love us?
Women - can't live with them, can't bury them under the patio
So - are Cinnamon girl and Big Dummy going to get together? We could have our very own soap opera going on.
echo bunnyhop
that's a band, isn't it?
TJ - I can't believe what you wrote!
The last place I would look for a real man would be a hobby forum populated by middle-aged, middle-class IT slackers who drive Audi's very badly and spout bollox all day.
But CG - bigdummy is one of the better one on here surely?
Go on - we need a bit of romance on the forum.
I was going to offer the key to my brand new combine harvester, but I'm not so sure now.
Thanks for that TJ. I particularly love it when people arrange unsolicited knock-backs for me.
Sorry BD
BigDummy - in no way was my comment aimed at you.
I may be gobby but am not nasty so apologies if I have caused offence.
Love is in the air - everywhere I look around.....................
No offence taken C-G.
[kicks Jeremy]
Get a room you three....
I'd cut out the middleman and get on Gaydar if I were you.
I'd imagine you're more likely to find a man that likes being in the middle if you go all Gaydar
Jeez, this is going from bad to worse.
I donned my Marigolds to clean out my filthy inbox, even had virtually an essay from some random saying he'd fallen in love with my photo.
I seem to be attracting the "wrong sort" and am wondering if it's because the photo wasn't actually of me.
Now seem to have a considerably younger man wanting to hook up - what's a girl to do?
A very confused C_G
I can see BD and CG working, actually.....
Go on, what's the worst that could happen?
CG - is this just from on here or are you getting these proposals from elsewhere?
Photo not of you? Younger man? Go for it
TJ - I would NEVER go out with anyone from on here. I intend to maintain my reputation!whatever it may be
I haven't lied about my age but the pic had a pretty good "come hither" expression. This will end in tears!
>what's a girl to do?
Be honest rather than using pictures of other people ?
I would NEVER go out with anyone from on here.
*The sound of a heart breaking....*
Well, I did post pics of me riding in mud but I guess there could be a connection between that and the Dita pic.
Cap'n - you're just talk ... or terrified of me!
Don't think this young man rides either!
I really can't be doing with all this, have had to crack open some wine and it's disappearing rather rapidly!
Latest update - drinkies arranged for next week. I better not talk about riding bikes.
