On occasion I have asked a male acquaintance for an objective opinion of my dating profile.
The first response, from a man of moderate intelligence, elicited the response that it was too long and that I used too many big words. He suggested point form, sentences beginning with "I like to.......", and words of one syllable. This would perhaps be sage advice if I am ever likely to be content with Rocky, Red Green or Tony Soprano.
The second response focused more on the images provided. More full body shots were apparently required, preferably in revealing, "asset" enhancing attire and perhaps with an outdoorsy backdrop. So......ski pants and a bustier while chopping wood in the Laurentians ? Or perhaps a clingy, low cut LBD while hiking The Bruce Trail ? Once again, perhaps sage advice if I was looking for Charlie Sheen, Benny Hill or Caligula.
My posted images contain one full body shot in which I am wearing unintentionally tight fitting red pants. Of the comments I receive upon my appearance, the vast majority focus on the red pants. My face could resemble that of Samoan drag queen and my hair could be on fire.....but hey, nice pants. The red pants are now too big. I am considering auctioning them on Ebay.
In my description, I admit to subjecting the boys to a bit of a test. My first sentence deliberately contains the word "stilettos". In the words of Meatloaf, "Stop right there !!"
The remainder of my description could be instructions on knitting a balaclava, it would not stem the steady flow of messages regarding my choice of footwear.
I am considering the notion of inserting a few more "key" words....Search Engine Optimization if you would. Who knows....with the inclusion of "barbeque", "hockey" and "beer" I could be married by Victoria Day.......if I wanted to be Mary Jo Buttafuco.
