My journey through personals hell has been grueling, but I have learned a few things! I'm sharing them (most from alt.com but a few other places too) in hopes of helping some poor sot who doesn't know any better than to be genuine: How To Get the Most Out of Personals Be sure to tag your personals ad with a snappy, attention-getter like: "Hey Ladies, let's get nasty!" If you are going to use a pic in your profile, use a poorly lit close-up of your penis - with hard-on, of course. If you have the option of selecting gender of your partners and activities you enjoy - select everything. Even if you don't know what it means, you might like it! When describing yourself, pretend that you are trying to get a street whore to give you a freebie, and you'll have just the right tone. When describing physical attributes of potential partners - shoot for the moon! Try something like "Must be petite, Asian, blonde hair, blue eyes, addicted to the taste of cum and anally-oriented." If you claim a dom interest in BDSM, come across as the domliest dom you can be. You have a lot of competition out there! Be a billboard! People do not post personals ads to meet people - they post them to read ads - so BE an ad. Another important point: Be sure to refer to submissiveness as something graded on a bell curve. An example: "I am an excellent Dom for those new to the scene and those who have reached an advanced level of submissiveness." Always, always, always claim years of experience and to be an expert at helping newbies into "the lifestyle." Remember those two words - "the lifestyle" - and use them over and over again, as if they actually meant something. Also "the scene" is a particularly riveting term that might mean anything, so it should be used repeatedly. When answering personals ads from prospective partners, use ONLY a one-line response. Avoid saying anything about yourself - MAKE the other person go first. If you can, try to refer to something buried in the profile of the ad you are answering. For example: "What is your curiosity about enemas?" makes for a charming one-line, first response that's likely to get attention. If you are fortunate enough to secure an email address - send Kinky Cards by the dozen - you never have to say anything and you can't overdo it! And, if after following all these instructions, your intended does not reply to your response - nag, harangue. Don't be afraid of sending a note everyday saying something like, "I expected to hear back from you by now!" ** note: The construction of this How-To was completed using only real life examples.
