It is a constant frustration of mine how poeple do not read profiles before taking action such as flirting or hotlisting...

In the past, I used to attribute much of this activity to bots, but I am very happy to say that I have noticed the quantity of bot activity seems to be on the decline (or rather LesbianPersonals seems to be doing a good job of stomping and removing them fairly quickly... IE before I get arround to seeing them.)

This having been said, I seem to be seeing a large number of who seem to be just randomly flirting / hotlisting guys just to see what if any response they get... I am sorry but right at the top of my profile I say I am married and am NOT looking to change that. Also, I am clearly not a spring chicken by any stretch of the imagination... (in fact I am old enough to remember when Foghorne Leghorn was just a young chicken strutting his stuff!) Yet it seems every day I get contacts from young ladies who are looking for marriage material and don't want anyone older than the aforementioned spring chicken!

This certainly does nothing to advance your cause, and worse yet, waists both your time and mine.

Do us all a favour and take a minute to read before you start initiating anything.

The Challenge:



Ok, for years I have seen people staying on the sidelines and being too shy to say a peep. Well here is a challenge. I want each and every one of you who looks at this blog posting comment, giving us at least 1 toy that you have made. In this way, we can hopefully get lots of improvised toy ideas that we can all use and enjoy. (Don't make me hunt you down and spank you with an improvised paddle.)

Well it is only fair that I start with one of my own. (This one is a theoretical design as I have not had the opportunity to actually try it out on anyone.)

Materials:
  • a micro sized vibrating egg
  • a long and narrow balloon
  • a small pump (a balloon pump would be ideal)
  • some lubrication

    Place the vibrator inside the balloon turned on, attach the balloon onto the pump and lightly pump up the balloon enough to make is a little firm. Apply a little lubrication to the surface of the balloon and then now insert it as desired... using the pump, while inserted, inflate and deflate the balloon as desired to maximize the effect... For the S&M fans in the crowd, perhaps if you are really good at the timing, you could intentionally over-inflate the balloon to the point of popping at just the right moment.

    OK now it is your turn... I want to see some improvised toys here!

    Live the Magic!

    A little Legal "Why Bother"?

    First I am going to start with a quote I see in many profiles.

    "WARNING: Any institutions using this site or any of its associated sites for studies or projects - You do NOT have my permission to use any of my profile or pictures in any form or forum both current and future. If you have or do, it will be considered a serious violation of my privacy and will be subject to legal ramifications"



    OK now that we have that over, lets take a close look at it. First off, do not refer to the site as you only have a legal right to speak to your own content, not the entire site. Furthermore, the overal site is govened by the acceptable use policy wish is in fact a legal agreement between the users of the site and the owners.

    Next we will deal with "your profile content or pictures" while you already posess a legal copyright (subject to which country you are viewing this from, but most civilized countries do have some form of copyright law with more or less covers this.

    HOWEVER, you have also posted this material in a public forum, in which case there is no legal expectation of privacy, no matter what you say or write. As such, there are provisions within the law of most countries (not all) that allow researchers to sample materials for recearch purposes. These people however are not the ones you are really concerned about.

    Who are you really concerned about the A$$e$ who frequently procure pictures and lift text to make the annoying "robot" profiles we regularly see pop up every day. Given how many more serious laws they are breaking in conducting thier varied scams, etc. do you really give one rodent's anus for copyright law?

    So in summary, give us a break and knock it off with those pointless and meaningless statements. If you want to do something that may actually do something? Put watermarks on your pictures... (preferably with you nick, since this then makes it obvious who they belong to.) Also, in doing so with watermarks, there actually is something that can be used if you were to ever actually attempt any kind of legal action.

    Coffee!


    Ok why does such a simple phrase evoke such a violent reaction? (Ususally something to the effect of Buzz off Creap!)

    OK I will conceed the point that I am perhaps not the socially enabled individual, but damn it, I am reasonably articulit, and always mean what I say!

    Why it is when if conversation and you mention the possibility of "meeting for coffee" is immediately assumed to be refering to "come over baby, and let me fuck your brains out!"?

    When I ask the question, I really mean lets meet over coffee since this is a nice public place to get an initial feel for someone without feeling uncomfortable.

    Other activities that strike me as having potential for getting to know someone is to walk around a conducive part of town. An example of this would be Old Strathcona in Edmonton, or the farmers market.

    So with that being said, anyone out there want to go for coffee on the weekend?

    Annoying Fake Profiles

    Isn't it so annoying all the contacts you get as a paid member from the fake profiles. The way I figure it, we paid money to be members, they should give us a setting that accounts must be at least 3 days old to contact us... That would probably eliminate most of them, since it always seems that thier accounts are gone within a few hours of the origional hit. It is just annoying to sort out which ones are real and which ones are fake... (Yes I know, some are more obvious than others, see pic )

    Well it seems once again it has been quite some time since I have made a posting, but perhaps this time I will change the genre of my postings and make it a little more personal...

    In 3 days, I leave my current job of 10 years and career of some 25 years to venture off on a whole new journey... Yes it is exciting, and scary, and a whole bunch of other emotions. So I will be away from home for the next 7 weeks to do training in Edmonton to learn to become a Conductor.


    So you are asking yourself, what does this have to do with LesbianPersonals? Well I figure this is a natural place to find people who may want to chat or do things while I am in Edmonton. If you may be one, feel free to drop me a line. (btw, will be finished in Edmonton on March 30th.)

    Ok, it has beena while since I had a beef to rant on here about, but here goes.
    PEOPLE why can't you put a little more thougth into your profile.. three are actually some of us around here who do read them, and assume you mean what you say. (and yes, I skip the empty profiles as a waist of both of our time and efforts)

    Specifically, what I am refering to now are the large number of women (I assume the same occurs for men, but since I do not look at men's profiles, I can not speak to this...) who say two specific things on thier profiles...
    1) No Strings Attached.
    2) Looking for adventure or new experiences


    Now I am not expecting every woman to jump at an ice breaker I might happen to give, however in the latest example of this, I happen to be traveling to Vancouver later this week and was looking for someone to maybe have dinner with and then catch a show or band or something afterwards... I also make it clear there are no expectations, and what ever happens is cool.. the idea being more about meeting someone new and a fun evening... it would seem the dozens of people I have approached who perport to be looking for exactly this type of thing simply respond with "that is not what I am looking for" or else no responce at all.

    While I am not expecting this to appeal to everyone, it seems to me that many of these profiles are very missleading. I am thinking this does neither the owner of the profile nor those browsing them any good.

    So where am I going with this?
    1) Please keep your profiles up to date (it helps us all)
    2) Please be honest with yourself and with us on what you are looking for.
    3) Well can not think of a third thing right now.. but anyway I think you get the idea.

    Ok folks, I am confused... I was under the impression that flirting is supposed to be a way of breaking the ice and saying.. hey we should check each other out and maybe there is something there...



    Well I have noticed lately, I seem to get about 3-5 flirts a day from the Husband shoppers... Sorry girls.. read my profile... I am married. After that, there seems to be 1 or 2 a day who seem like possibilities, so I send an email in responce... Well I can understand the no-replies as some of these are of course Standard members who don't catch on to the possible alternate methods of communication, but the ones that drive me nuts are the ones who than go off the rails at me as to Why would you consider yourself worthy to contact me? Um.. Hello girl, you contacted me first!!

    Sigh... once again, I wish people would take the time to fill out htier profiles properly, and HONESTLY... it does neither of us any good to waist our time with something you aren't interested in...

    Then again.. I suppose some are here just to play that game...

    Bad Sex

    Has anyone else ever noticed some of the common things people always seem to mention they are looking for? Earlier tonight, it jumped out at me that a lot of people mention that they are looking for good sex. But stop and think about it... doesn't it suffice it to say that you are looking for sex... after all.. who out there is really looking for bad sex?

    I can see it now.... Young woman, athletic, well proportioned... looking for Bad Sex! Or worse yet.. can you picture the scary gentlemen who might respond to such a request... Yes my dear.. since I only have about an inch to work with and have no idea how to do anything for you... I am sure I can help you...

    So what is my point in all of this? No point really, just found it amusing is all...

    Standard Contacts

    I know one of the universal frustraitions that people have on here is the difficulty with which standard people can contact others. I understand that it is a commercial opperation and selling memberships and upgrades is how the bills get paid, but I have also noticed that many have found ways around these frustraiting restrictions.

    I thought I would offer some of the ways I have noticed, and perhaps those of you reading might add ones I have missed in the comments...

    1. Reply to a blog posting. A blog posting which filters all replies can be used to provide a "private" mailbox.

    2. Find the person in a chat room, and talk directly to them there.

    3. Provide addy for an external chat program such (saying at m or at y suffices since everyone out there knows which places you are refering to.

    4. Provide an sms text number since now-a days, most people out there have cell text available.

    5. Invite the standard person to your friends network with a message saying something to the effect to accept it if they are interested in further conversation.

    So happy communicating for the purposes of ... well what ever your purposes might be...

    Evolution of Devolution?

    I am getting very tired of seeing and hearing about pettiness in the lifestyle!

    Grow Up People!

    One of the URL's that is used to access this place is of course Adult Friend Finder. I strongly believe people are forgetting about the ADULT part of that!

    Having been part of the Lifestyle over the last 10 years, and having played many roles, including newb, guide for other newbs, teacher, event organizer, group facilitator, and these days as just another member of the community, I am greatly disturbed by the perpetual re-occurrence of many petty situations. Based on my experiences, I have come up with a number of rules I like to live by, and as a little piece of advice, I would like to recommend others think about this and use what they will!

    1) Know and be honest with yourself!

    It is very important to know what you are looking for. This is much harder than it sounds. We are often pressured into "wanting" things by those around us. How many of you smoke, drink, or do other things because friends encouraged you to? I am not saying you shouldn't do these things, but are these things that you really chose to do, or were you originally pressured into them and now find yourself addicted? What I am suggesting is to do some sole searching and really figure out what it is that you want.

    2) Be honest with those you interact with.

    To do this, you must first do #1 because if you don't know yourself, how can you be honest with others as to what it is you want and need? But on a simpler note, if you are also honest about your situation, not only will others respect you more, you may find it actually easier to find that which you need or want.

    3) Treat others as you wish to be treat yourself.

    If you can't treat others with respect, how can you expect to be respected in return? If you treat others as meat on a hook, expect to have that hook firmly implanted just where you don't care to find it.

    4) Respect discretion and the privacy of others.

    The survival of this community requires that we respect the concept of privacy. You are welcome to do and say what ever you want, but remember that if you want others to respect your privacy, you better do the same for them.

    5) Be an Adult.

    While I would hope this one is obvious on an Adult site, but far too often, I have seen grown men and women behave worse than little in a playground spat. "He did this", "She said that", running to the nearest "authority" to try and get sympathy for their cause. And even worse yet, those offering that Sympathy without taking the time to get all sides of a story. (Better yet, Say NON OF MY BUSINESS.)

    Sigh... I hate feeling like a grandpa in a world full of little fighting over who stole who's toys and who looked at who wrong, etc...

    Well here is to all the great Adults out there, I celebrate you and wish you all the best in your searches. And for those who threaten to "Take their toys and go home", you know what, the only one who is going to loose out is yourself in the long run, so "happy trails to you...."

    Cheers

    When the Fly Goes Down 3 Inches
    Posted:Sep 27, 2009 9:14 pm
    Last Updated:Feb 23, 2012 7:45 pm

    There is a fish in a lake watching a fly 3 inches above the water. The fish thinks if that fly goes down three inches I'll get it.

    Meanwhile on the bank a bear is watching the fish and the fly and thinks, if that fly goes down three inches the fish will jump for the fly and I'll get the fish.

    While behind the bear on a hill a hunter is watching everything and thinks that if that fly goes down three inches, the fish will jump for the fly, and the bear will go for the fish, and I'll shoot the bear.

    Behind the hunter though, is a mouse. The mouse thinks that if the fly goes down three inches the fish will get the fly, the bear will get the fish, the hunter will get the bear, and I'll get the hunter's cheese.

    Now stalking the mouse is a cat, the cat thinks that if the fly goes down three inches the fish will get the fly, the bear will get the fish, the hunter will get the bear, the mouse will get the hunter's cheese and I'll get the mouse...

    So the fly goes down three inches and the fish gets the fly, the bear gets the fish, the hunter gets the bear, the mouse gets the cheese, but the cat misses the mouse and falls into the water and drowns.

    The moral of the story is for every fly that goes down three inches there is a wet pussy.

    OK, I have been shocked to my core. An event occurred at 11:02pm on Wednesday, September 23rd that I previously believed to occupy the same realm as those that believed in Santa Clause and the Easter Bunny. What was this cataclysmic event? Well I am sorry but you will have to wait till the end of this rambling for this.

    Could it be true? It has been reported that Beelzebub has been spotted wearing a parka? Has California succumbed to the final Earthquake and descended into the depths of the Pacific ocean to become the new Atlantis? Or could it be that the Bermuda Triangle can finally coughed up it's secrets along with the thousands of ships, airplanes and people, returned to our own place and time?

    While I have as yet had no confirmation of any of these phenomenal events occurring to date, I am certain that they must have occurred.

    Why am I so certain you might ask? Well, let me tell you! (OK being a little vague from this point forward to protect the not so innocent....) After a wonderful session of helping to fulfill someones wishes, my lovely Kitty was heard to respond with a shocking "Not tonight" to a certain Terminal Sulcus's offer of oral ministrations.

    While my research has yet to find that the world is somehow coming to an end, like Chicken Little, I am somehow expecting that at any moment, the sky may start falling and end civilization as we know it.
