Are the ads getting prettier or are my standards dropping?

Ok. This post ticks most of the negative boxes I think:
Shallow - Check
Cynical - Check
Mean-minded - Check
Self-serving - Check
Offensive to ocelots - Check*
Basically, before I found you good folk of the Forum I spent a couple of weeks hammering out responses to as many 'women seeking men' or 'couples seeking men' ads as caught my fancy. My piss-poor conversion rate has been well documented.
Anyway, since I've been hanging around in the cafe basking in the glow of your witty and erudite conversation I just haven't had the time or inclination to keep replying to ads, though I do still have the occasional look at who's posting what.
I was interested therefore to see that there seems to be an increasing number of gorgeous women (based on the 'Calendars on the wall in Kwik-Fit' international standard measure of beauty) posting increasingly brief and bland adverts.
In fact, due to the banality of the prose, the professionalism of some of the shots and a preponderence of bleached blonde manes (think Poison/Motley Crue circa Mid-80's) it could be suggested that half the pics have simply been cut and pasted from bog-standard porn sites, and could be sneaky fronts for all sorts of nefarious activities.
So my questions to any males on here who still respond to these ads are:
1) Is it the case that since I stopped responding to ads the 'Women Seeking Men' photo ad section has become jam-packed with spurious adverts posted by picture collecters and porn services?
Or conversely:
2) Is it the case that since I stopped responding to ads the 'Women Seeking Men' photo ad section has genuinely become jam-packed with gorgeous women desperately seeking sex?
2a) As a bonus question, should I be offended or if anyway concerned if the latter scenario is the case? Am I an unknowing women-repellent?
Any advice, opinions or experiences gratefully received.
I'm a busy man who should really be focusing on his work deadlines but it would eat me up inside if I was cynically and cruelling disregarding adverts from desperate and needy, beautiful nymphomaniacs.
I have a heart, I'm not made of stone...

*Not so sure about this one. I can take the piss out of cats with big ears and spots if it'll tip the balance?
If you could translate this into Liverpudlian English for me please I'll be happy to try and answer lol
If what your asking is how to pull more easily in the photo ads - say you're bisexual and pinch my avatar lol
Running for cover....

I edited - look up... lol
No no, I was actually saying that since I stopped relying to ads I seem to be seeing a lot more that I find attractive.
Could be 'web goggles' (variation on beer goggles?), could be false adverts, could be there's more attractive ads on there (in which case I'm missing my chances) or it could simply be that the grass is always greener.
Am I really not making sense? Re-reading all the posts I have to admit that the 50 words above explain my point more eloquently than the 500 in my first attempt.
In my defense I have been up since 3:30am and just had a very difficult 2 1/2 hour meeting, so I'm feeling a little jaded.
I think i should go and lie down.

No - I understand you perfectly mate lol
I really think it's just a numbers/statistics thing and that constant 'what am I missing' syndrome. The ads. are no doubt equally the same when you are there and when you are not and usually, we're all missing nothing!
Jodie Marsh was on earlier though I believe...

You're saying my persona as a heterosexual stapler isn't enough to push most peoples buttons?
I beg to differ! This is the internet my friend, all life is represented here. Maybe I'm just playing the long game.
I didn't realise it would be quite this longthough...

Just suggestions mate - if someone shows me a short cut I usually take it, although it could change your life forever! Yup - best not take thatshort-cut as I'll cut your bollox if if you knick my avatar - you'll have to go bi lol Not sure about the stapler thing though - although it may just not be my type of stapler lol I am sure that there is a meaning that you will no doubt explain...
You are obviously a guy who hasn't poured over stationary catalogues enough.
That is a chrome (effect) 'executive' stapler my friend. You get one of those bad boys when you get the keys to the director's washroom.
Owning one is like having more pens in your shirt pocket or upgraded trim level on your company Vectra - it signifys rank, seniority and POWER, the ultimate aphrodisiac...
I really need that lie-down now, I feel kind of woozy.

I think he has a lovely stapler wink
OK OK - I didn't mean to say stapler :twisted:
PoloLady,
Thank you for your kind words, and thanks also for showing me your lovely hole-punch.
Now if you would only flash me your ring-binder.

I thought I had confused
memorable as ever then sad
Maybe it was your accountant :shock:
Going back to the title of the thread, I think you may have a point.
I don't respond to the women seeking men ads, anymore. What usually happens is that I receive aload of replies from women claiming that they'll only communicate if you sign up to some other site.
I think people are using this to get others to go and join other commercial places.
