They seem to be written from pure fantasy.


They are.

And no, I don't worry about them, as they are almost certainly never going experience anything more dangerous than some dirty chat.

(All generalizations are flawed, including this one)

Sometimes my profile makes me cringe, because it's more harsh and abrupt than I normally am - an unusually single-faceted.  However, it does keep random spammers from PMing me, for the most part, so I have to admit it serves its purpose well!




TemptingNviceSub -> RE: Do you ever see profiles that make you cringe? (11/26/2007 8:24:19 PM)

I am generally not much of a profile reader,so I get to avoid the usual gut wrench that some of those profiles would provide... I do look at profiles when I am responding to an OP or to check out new pictures from CM regulars..:0)..Tempting

Oh, but I enjoy the sighs of disapointment whenever I tell a "No Limits" slave that there are certain things I just won't ever do to her or have her do!  Oh wait, guess that makes me one Greedy Selish Bastard for having limits... can you imagine the rude awakening it is for a true slave girl, that wants to experience it all.  LOL...

The ones that make me crazy are the ones from "slaves" who "don't do housework", will not "work outside of the home", will not "babysit your children".  they also expect to be furnished with a car, insurance and an allowance while the Master foots the tuition!  Talk about fantasy!!!

Oh, my.  I forget sometimes that there are people out there that think this is what being a slave is all about.  Makes me wonder if I'm on the wrong side of the power exchange!!!  [8|]

Profiles that contain nothing but sexual preferences and desires - and nothing about the actual person.
Profiles like that I skip over, I spend hours evaluating profiles when it's the other way round.

Looking at your profile I do not see anything that I refer to as "fake". What I - and I believe also the OP - are referring to are the profiles of the sort:

"Looking to be owned by extreme Master, no limits, total enslavement and destruction, human toilet, seek body destruction and retention of no rights whatsoever".

Preferrably, these profiles are also about 4 days old, never have any forum posts, include looking for anyone, their bicycle and their dog, and have no dislikes, hates or limits of any kind.

Edited for shits and giggles and content.


(love your name, btw)

my own profile is pretty damned sparse.  but that was done kind of deliberately.  why?  i figured a dominant would have to be pretty curious about who i am to message me and ask enough leading questions to see if i was what he wanted, and i could ask enough questions to find out the same thing.  :)

It might just be that I am over 35 and that I have had the misfortune to experience a very dark side of BDSM.
But some profiles made by fellow female submissives make me cringe.  They seem to be written from pure fantasy. I think to myself " boy are you asking for it"

I almost want to email them about it but what stops me is I think I might be just too sensitive because of my past.

What about you? Do you ever see profiles that make you worry about the wellbeing/safety of the person?


Yeah, quite a lot. Mostly though I just laugh to Myself and say "Are they serious". I think some take themselves -far- too seriously sometimes.




Machts -> RE: Do you ever see profiles that make you cringe? (11/29/2007 6:02:31 AM)

They seem to contain nothing but quotes cut and pasted from castle realm.

Makes you wonder-greatly.




DesFIP -> RE: Do you ever see profiles that make you cringe? (11/29/2007 8:55:29 AM)

Some of the total fantasy ones I think are actually written by males writing about what they prefer porn wise.

But once above 25, people should have a sufficient body of life experience to be able to transfer from one area of their life to another. If they choose not to, it isn't my responsibility to mother them. They'll pick impossibly low bids for repair jobs and complain when they are scammed. They'll buy a $20 watch on the street and bitch because it isn't a real Cartier. They have had plenty of time to grow up, if they choose not to, they will have the consequences.




Searcher38 -> RE: Do you ever see profiles that make you cringe? (11/29/2007 8:59:53 AM)

I think a more apt question is: Has anyone ever seen a profile on a fetish site that didn't make them cringe?




DarkDaddyZ -> RE: Do you ever see profiles that make you cringe? (11/29/2007 9:36:32 AM)

Yeah, some of them when you know the picture is fake.  But then I just scroll down or come to the boards for my sanity [:D]

I recently discovered the HIDE function, and I am atwitter with ecstasy!  Srsly! 

It's been a few years since I actually read profiles on this site, and I am wondering if I am getting a secret thrill from being appalled on such a regular basis.  There must be some -philia for that.  I am equally horrified by dom and sub profiles.  Ladies, do you truly feel that you can submit to someone who displays his third grade education so defiantly?  And the pictures!  There is one gay master who I have not hidden because his picture is such a pepsi-snorter.  His expression is priceless, rather like one of those Disapproving Rabbits, but with glasses.




KindLadyGrey -> RE: Do you ever see profiles that make you cringe? (11/29/2007 2:14:23 PM)

Maybe I'm a foolish softie, but I do worry for them. I've annoyed more than one new subbie boy by insisting he set up a safecall before I agree to meet him in a public place.

I met one a week or so ago and had to explain to him what a safecall was, and why he should set one up. I recently spoke to another newbie who started seeing and doing some light scening with a Domme only to be informed after a few dates that she expected a $100 "tribute" each time. He felt a little silly for being preyed upon, but fortunately bounced back He seems cute. I may take him out for coffee.

The ones that really frighten me are the ones who are willing to travel to distant places at the drop of a hat for a meeting. I understand that many of these are fantasy addicts who bail on actually doing it, but if any of them are legit they are setting themselves up for a whole world of risk.

I guess there's really two things going on here. The first is just those who let the fantasy run away with them but don't have a clear concept of what being a part of a D/s relationship is like in reality. If they are really serious about exploring this lifestyle, they'll learn pretty fast. They might have to learn the hard way, but they'll learn. And let's be honest: didn't most of us who now have more experience have to spend a little time acting like newbie idiots before we got it? If you are a softie like me, you can help these folk out by helping them navigate and teaching them about things like safety protocols and dungeon etiquette.

The second group worries me a lot more. A lot of them are people who do have some experience with D/s and have simply been single or unfulfilled in their kink for a very long time. They are metaphorically starving to death, needing desperately something they can't get. I've seen these people willingly put themselves in risky situations just to get their hunger fulfilled. Sometimes they don't even care if they are taken advantage of. This kind of desperation frightens me. Then again, that kind of desperation is not unique to a kinky lifestyle. . .it's just that there are perhaps more physical dangers involved in certain bdsm activities. Anyway, there isn't much you can do for them and they will continue to put themselves at risk and we will continue to hear sad stories of submissives being badly treated, wounded, or even sexually assaulted.

It is sad :(

I encounter cringe-worthy profile often.  They sometimes appear when I open my account, sometimes have messaged my companion and she shows them to me, and occasionally I click on them in the forums.  Usually it is the grammar or spelling that make me cringe, but sometimes it is the extreme ideas in the message itself.  Ugh!




sexyone4you -> RE: Do you ever see profiles that make you cringe? (11/29/2007 5:35:46 PM)

Some profiles, but more of the posts on the board make me either roll my eyes or hit the block button before I am exposed to more of the person's insanity.
