After having our profile reviewed we have done three things and they have seemed too helped. We are now paid members which hopefully show we are serious. Corrected the grammar mistakes so people see we are intelligent. We also added pictures. The only picture that can be seen at this time is one of our hot tub. This has produced several couples who would be interested in making good use of it which is the reason we bought it. Other pictures will be added shortly so people can get a look at our body types.

 

Julie, thanks for getting this thread started. :cool:

I think not having a picture was a disappointment to me. You could add a very tasteful discreet picture that is nondescript, but yet gives the reader the opportunity to envision you two.

 

I saw a great picture of a couple recently that was fabulous for those that need to be discreet- it was the two of them hand-in-hand, dressed, taken from behind at a park. It was very nice, because you could see their hair style, type of clothing, body style, etc. but still have no idea who they actually are.

 

I would also recommend using the proper tense consistently through the ad. It shifts from 1st person to second and back.

 

I also think it was nice that you clearly spelled out what you weren't interested in. I think sometimes, newbies are afraid to be specific, as not to offend, and then after you meet them find out they aren't interested in something. That has happened to us with women. The ad will say she is bi-curious, but when you meet her, he curiosity ends with seeing another woman naked. :lol: Its good to be direct.

You had one little typo in the fantasy section "Our goal it to..." Should say "Our goal is to..."

Other than that I liked it, very specific in what you are looking for.

Woo hoo, this is fun! I don't automatically check to see if members here have SLS memberships, too, so it's really interesting to see some of the (very good) ads posted there by swingersboard members.

 

Ok, here's our contribution to the thread: www.swinglifestyle.com intuition897 I realize that we're not certified but we've only met one or two couples from SLS, and it didn't click. The thing is, being in Canada, there are fewer folks to meet here north of the border than south of it. Plus we're not highly active swingers; our vanilla life is pretty restrictive. Let us know what you think. Should we be taking a different approach or saying things differently?

I really liked your ad. You are very clear in what you're looking for and expect. In the "describe your fantasies" section, though, you mentioned being bi-sensual. Does that mean completely bi, or bi in certain situations, or passively bi? I saw at the top of the profile that you are listed as bi, but using a euphemism other than just saying bi may make some people wonder. Other than that, if you weren't 1200 miles away, we would write to you!

I never realized how much people focus on the certification. I'd barely even noticed it but the last couple we met told us at the end of the night, "We'll be sure to certify you" and I remember thinking, "certify?" I'd never certified someone before and no one has offered to certify me. I'm pretty sure kermit certified them back though. :lol:

Thanks for the positive critique! I'm not sure what to call myself, in truth. Given the choice of going without men or women for the rest of my life, I would give up women in a heartbeat over men. So I don't consider myself truly bi in that I can't see myself being capable of developing a relationship or connection to a woman that could compare to the connection I feel between myself and a man. It's no wonder that men don't understand women; I don't understand them...and I'm one of them! I'm actually kinda clueless about knowing what pleases a woman. Men? no problem. I don't feel any intimidation whatsoever there, but with women, I have comparatively little experience in that realm. As Mr. says, I simply don't have as many 'hours logged' as he does in knowing how women work sexually. But this doesn't keep me from enjoying the wonderful differences in the way they smell, the way they sound, the way their skin feels, etc. The way I see it, outside of swinging, I'm totally hetero, but as long as the other woman is receptive to it and we're all on a bed playing, gender is not a barrier for me.

 

I dunno. How would you categorize that?

Oh boy! I opened a can of worms!! :lol: I think a lot of women have a problem categorizing themselves, but as far as finding couples to play with, it's not a deal-breaker if the woman's straight, and it's not a deal-breaker if she's bi, right? Then, I would put somewhere in the profile that you really enjoy playing with women, but it's not a problem to have hetero only play too. I think that lets people know that you like girl-girl play, but it's not 100% necessary for you.

 

I just pointed it out because when we look at profiles, I always zero in on what the woman says about playing with other women. If I see bi-sensual, bi-curious, passively bi or something else other than I AM BI, I'm tend to assume they're sending some sort of coded message: either that they don't know if they like women because of inexperience, or they don't like women, but do some soft-bi activities just to entertain the guys. Just be clear about it too, just like you are with everything else in your profile.

A lot of your profiles are so good it makes me a little self conscious about ours, but I can always use any suggestions that might improve it.

 

So randp at swinglifestyle.com it is, let me know what you think.

 

I think your profile is great. The only thing I would suggest since you have a private pic (and this is really a suggestion to anyone who doesn't want to include public pictures) is to maybe explain in your profile that you will share pics when you are comfortable doing so. And, this may be just me, but when I see a private pic I tend to assume that it is a pic of privates - so if that's not the case, it's all the more reason to say something.

We would love to hear comments and suggestions on our profile. Does anyone think our interests to be out of the mainstream of most swingers? Any thoughts will be appreciated. dodiddle@swinglifestyle.com

 

Picture: good - when you click to enlarge it you can get a good overall idea of what you both look like.

 

I don't think your interests are out of the ordinary, they seem pretty normal (at least for swingers :) ).

 

The one thing I would suggest is taking a look at HOW you write out your answers to the various questions, at times I found myself confused as to whether you were describing yourselves or the people you were looking for (or both - which is probably the case and would explain the easy transitioning in your tenses). Complete sentences would help this immensely, rather than just a list of descriptives.

Here is ours if you want to take a look. Usually we are not taking a break, and do change our tag line from time to time. newbies123 on swinglifestyle.com

 

 

As I've posted before I'm not a big fan of pictures that don't really give much of an idea of who I'm looking at. I also prefer to see both halves of a couple pictured (even without faces) - they don't have to be identifying.

 

You mention that the Mrs will be out of commission for 6 to 8 weeks, it might be nice if you either post from when or about when that time will be over. Otherwise, the reader doesn't know if that 6 to 8 weeks just started is almost over.

 

Other than that, excellent profile.

Good suggestion, our picture is actually a professionally done portrait face picture. We are working on doing some non-face pic's, but although we have taken a few we weren't happy enough with them to put them up for public consumption. It's funny you mentioned this because after thinking about it I have to admit I usually assume the hidden pic's are the racy kind to.

This was a little confusing to me:

We've both been down this road before but not as a couple. His long range goal is to share her with another man or more and share each other with another couple. Read carefully please. Our goal it to experience sex with the right couple. His goal is to experience her together with another man and hopefully more. He would also like to get it with two women at the same time, hopefully one will be my better half. Her goal....she hasn't really said WHAT it is yet.

 

At one point it seems to say that you are only looking for couples then you say he wants to see her with another man - which makes me think that single males would be accepted too. You may want to clarify that, especially if the latter is not the case. From reading the rest of your profile it looks like what you may want to say is that with the right couple you may play separately, or may like to play with a couple who will play separately. I'm still confused.

 

Also, because the whole female bi thing is so common in swinging and it appears from your last paragraph that you are both straight, you may want to mention that earlier, like when you describe yourselves and/or what you are looking for so that those who are not interested in straight couples won't have to read all the way through your profile just to find out you aren't interested in them.

Thanks for feedback Julie. Made the change to make more specific for time out.

 

We will work on getting a picture of us both that is not identifying. I just recently put that one up as public as we have always only had private pictures.

Hi DandS. Your profile looks great. The only two suggestions I would have are to correct a small typo (move=movie?) and to post a pic of Mr. DandS as well. The latter is just one Mr.'s and my pet peeves. If an ad states that it is a couple, and only HER pic is posted, it makes us wonder why didn't they post HIS pic, too? We just don't like the idea that someone might be trying to manipulate us into a high pressure situation. As in, using her gorgeous picture as bait, and then waiting until everyone has traveled X miles to meet them and find out that he's COMPLETELY unattractive. We just don't like 'bait' ads. Don't know why people feel the need to do this. I mean if we're incompatible, we're incompatible, and we'll find out what you look like eventually unless you plan to attend a meet-up with a bag over your head. I'm not saying this is the case with the two of you, but this is just what runs through our minds when we see ads with her pic only... or HIS pic only.

Hey thanks for the feedback. I corrected the typo and understand the need to get a picture of the Mr out there. It's not that he is unattractive, I just dont have a recent photo of him to post...it's on my list of "to dos"...

We can certainly understand that. It's amazing how quickly we all can jump to conclusions about people by a few simple misunderstood words or over a picture. I guess it's one of the hazards of weeding through tons of fake ads to get to the real ones.

Very creative ad. My only red flag that went up was the bit about "no woman = no ticket = no admission". Maybe I'm being oversensitive, but I would get the impression that all some jerk would need is a woman - any woman - to get him through the door. I mean, having read your ad and getting a sense of who you two are, I truly doubt that you would go for that sort of thing (e.g. the part where you said you want a couple that's doing this for the fun of it, not for therapy). But there will always be some yahoo thinking that he's found a technical loophole and you may find yourselves being harassed. Maybe just reword that part. Other than that, it's a great ad!

You may want to clarify this:

We will soft swap with the right couple, we do however, prefer encounters where all are involved. We are not a full swap couple, at least for now.
It confused me a bit. Initially reading "we will softswap with the right couple" made me think you prefer full swap... then you say you are soft swap only.

 

I would also suggest filling in how long you guys have been swinging, especially with the earlier statement that you are soft-swing only, if you aren't newbies people need to know that.

Is this a perk for only paid members and not for the cheap folks who have free ads, like myself? :o

      Hello!
       
      We've been purusing ads looking for a single male as of late. We've found that in many cases men will state in their ads that they are "very open minded" or "very kinky" or even "open to new experiences".
       
      For the most part, these men are simply bisexual or bi curious and we're now wondering if there are secret code words and hidden meanings behind other adverts we've come across. Is it common here to use phrases like "very open minded" to indicate that one is bisexual? What other phrases should we key in to?

      Ok BE 100% honest people, How many times did you write, delete, rewrite, change, delete and add the HEADLINE and/or DESCRIPTION of your PROFILES. I know there is some bright, word savy, super confident in how they describe themselves individuals and I envy and admire that about you. But for some of us, at least us, it was kinda hard. I mean how do you sum up who you and your mate are as individuals, your sex life, your expectations and try not to sound creepy ALL AT THE SAME TIME?!?!?!? THEN DO IT IN A FEW WORDS ON THE HEADLINE TO ATTRACT PEOPLE!!! LOL
       
      I'm glad to announce ours ended up being LETS HAVE A BLAST. smh I just said fuck it, I know sexually we can hang with the best of them and that we're good down to earth people so LETS HAVE A BLAST it is. To all that went thru our dilemma, cheers! Hope we get contacted, if not we'll be right back trying to come up with some catchy 5 word phrase that says WE WANT TO HAVE SEX WITH YOU BUT I NEED YOU TO WANT TO HAVE SEX WITH US TO SO HERE IS A BRIEF SUMMARY OF WHO WE ARE AND I HOPE IT WORKS! To those who didn't stress, NO sex for you tonight because your headline probably scored you and your partner some bomb ass swinging nights! But we still love you!!!!
