I'm just wondering if the "photo ad" instrument is of any use to any of the men that use it.
does anybody actually check the ads listed under "single male"?? (other than the gay or bi males, who seem to be more in demand, if my perceptions are right)
I'm not complaining..I'm just thinking that I've read several ads all across the board, and several profiles. most of them, couples and ladies is what I've focussed on ( :evil2: ), seem to say the same thing "single males, if/when interested, we will look for you"... wether that happens, I doubt, simply because I'm sure that there are men that ignore the above message and still contact the couples and ladies... which means that all they need to do, when they actually want to meet single guys, is to select amongst those that have made contact.
I'm thinking probably I should pull my ad and focus on responding to as many ads I can, to get a chance at scoring a date...(not that I'm desperate, as I do find dates elsewhere, but 1 date is better than none :P...and I'm still a SH virgin)
before doing so though, I'd like to ask:
do any of the people that actually meet single straight guys go and look for them on the relevant ads page? or do you simply choose amongst those that have made contact be it by mail or chatroom?
is it worth it to keep the ad going? (what I look for might as well be written directly on my profile)
I know of course that having the ad doesn't "cost" me anything, but I like to think in terms of efficiency..and it doesn't seem to ad anything to my chances.
rather than rants from frustrated fellow single guys, I'd like the opinion of those who meet/have met the likes of us,..and I'd like to know how they go about finding the right one to meet

single males and personal ads.... NOT a rant
do you ever read the ads column of single straight men?
yes, but only out of curiosity
yes, but only if I check out their profile for other reasons and see they have an ad
no, I find the single guys I'm interested in/eventually meet through their approach to me or through the forums/chatrooms
yes, and I consider it a good instrument to shortlist the men I'm interested in
My profile doesn't actually say 'no single males etc' but I would only approach a single male I had 'met' in the chatroom or forum. If I'm curious about anyone, male or female (or couples) I will look at their profile to see if they are looking for particular types of people, and read any ads they may have posted, before initiating contact (see 'are you shy?' thread).

I'm a bit of an "all of the above" person - I do all of them I think at different times.
i have a profile, thats not a ad.
if im looking i sometimes place a ad,
ill also look in the relevent ad section.
sadely its never any thing new, and if it is its a few lines like..
single male,( really??) good looking,(( arrogant,i'll be the judge if i think your goodlooking, or are you TOO goodlooking i wont bother messaging you)) fun, looking for sex.(( ahh nope im looking for swinging))
no pics,not even in private. not really anything there to make me message. If i did and then with a little bit more info im not interested,as they dont fit what im after i get harrassed and accused of being a time waster.
so yes single males its good to have a ad,but one that actually tells me something. the offer of a face pic helps. Oh and ensure the ad info matches the profile info.
oh and any one with quickies remember us ladies will go view who you are sending quickies to, and personally i dont like seeing quickies. makes me think our encounter would not be kept private.

I've never specified for or against single males.
But I've only had one attempt at using the ads and the B******** didn't turn up (I'd booked a hotel 30 miles from home) or bother to call and let me know so I never used the ad section again. It's too un-predictable. I'd far rather meet someone via the forum or chat-rooms.

I tend to meet people from the chatrooms - very very occaisonally those that contact me via email. I find the whole photo ad thing a bit of an effort as most men don't put their pictures up plus its hard to find those that are near to me - but I would keep the advert running if I were you - it can't hurt and as a well known retailer says every little helps!
