Hey...at least you got mail. Lol
There used to be a thread with info on this, but it has been deleted. My question is this: I understand that the only way to change our profile name is to create a new profile altogether and then have the membership that's been paid transf…
Follow up: Based on the posts about private contact info, I emailed Customer Service and inquired. Private contact info such as phone nos., Kik IDs, etc... can be sent via your emails here on SLS. The thing that is not allowed is to post t…
SexxNpassion, I think it is allowed to give personal phone nos, kik, etc in a private email, but since few of these *rules* are actually written in the Terms of Service document, it's impossible to know. Until, of course, a profile is take…
If the profile avatar is *greyed out* it means that the profile has been deleted altogether. The post will remain, but the profile is gone. Generally, an AA couple means African American.
I know, right. Lolol But seriously, we never really know why anyone looks at our profile...not really. I'm just glad they drop by from time to time. It might be tomorrow or it might be a year or so from now, but eventually the right one wi…
"...it appears that I have made his list. I know He made mine..." I think I'm gonna like this guy. ;^) As for the compliments, thanks...kind of you to say.
Geezer, that didn't take very long, Platosfolly. Looks like you've just made his Select list. Lol
@Pepper, I think that is just fine. What MsMolly said is really true too. Another SM might well browse profiles at times to consider potential candidates for female friends.
A belated welcome to the forums, Platosfolly.
The art of communication plays out in personal contacts as well, and Sorillo commented on that extremely well in another thread. He was talking about the process of *making friends*, but it was the act of communication in focus. He wrote:…
It takes a special kind of person to hold up in retail under normal conditions, to say nothing of a holiday weekend or the holiday season. I wouldn't last a week.

HT: Long weekend coming up...no work!
"I would not only tolerate dinner with you, I'd buy it for you! ;-)" You're a doll....that's what you are. You know just what to say to make a Tramp's Heart skip a beat. And just at the right time too. I was down in the dumps after you cru…
Lol @ Pepper. But don't you worry bout ole Tramp. I doubt very seriously that you would ever offend me...even on purpose. I just don't take myself seriously enough for that. You are welcome to check out profiles and/or write Ms Lady Mam or…
My friend Pepper. Why in the world would I go ballistic? Lol (I just noticed that) I've been around the waters for a long time, but I've never understood why men get so nervous that another guy has seen their profile. Well, actually I do u…
NNJCT, no...can't see yours. @Peppers, I show the minimal interest in couples and SMS on my SM profile for the sole purpose of not blocking them by default as that's what happens now when the no interest setting is selected. Even though I…
No, I can't see Sorillo's. And I had tried changing my preference/privacy settings as well but to no avail. The two seem tied together still. So I'm wondering if the other guy's situation is just a glitch.
I've got a curiosity question that a little off topic, but related. After Sorillo's comment, I clicked on the guy's profile and was able to see it...even though he shows *no* interest in SMS. I can't do that on my SM profile. If I show no…
BT my friend, I doubt seriously that I could get three folks from these forums together to go help me collect a winning lottery ticket...let alone anything else. But Sunshine seems to think I've tried. I've all but begged him to go ahead a…
Daisy Duke
Thanks...kind of you to say.
I'm glad to hear you're OK, PG. I love horses, and I get in awe just watching them, but I also know that one can get hurt really bad really quick with them. I figure you've been around them more than enough to know what you're doing, but p…
And another thought on that while I'm on a roll. A face photo is far more important to the ladies than it may be to the men. Not all men will agree with that, but I've never run across a lady who didn't want to see our face above all else.…
MsMolly, I agree with you completely on that. We *never* ask for photos to be opened or otherwise provided...never. What a person provides is statement enough about them to us. We both consider it a slap in the face to Lady for no photo of…
Quincy Jones
But.... Not nearly short enough!
I've said this before, but I'll say it again. Elvis was likely the most recognizable man in our lifetime. However, I could show you a photo of him in everyday clothes and with his face cropped out, and you'd have no idea of who you were lo…
No joke. And a couple of weeks ago I inadvertently did something on my phone that put it back in that crazy mode of making up its own mind about what words to use. Even worse than the typical autocorrect. This happened a couple of years ag…
And, since you brought it up. While I certainly encourage you to aspire, there is nothing Trampish about you...and there never will be. Keep tryin' though, Sunshine. ;^D
Welcome to the forums, Bijo. I'd recommend a couple of posters to follow here as they seem to excel in the cuckold thing, but one deletes their posts and the other one doesn't like me very much. So, maybe they'll drop by of their own accor…
Good point
Moving on a bit.... The never-ending cliches seem to bog down most of the profiles I see. We had a thread dedicated sole use to listing them all but it, like so many others, got deleted. **like-minded, open-minded **laid back, easy-going *…
I was wondering how long it'd take to get a new thread started. Eight seconds isn't bad if that is consistent.
Agreed
I can only imagine how sore that suckin' thumb is getting....toggling between profiles just to read what he don't read. Lmao
Allen, dear. If you have something to say (or show), by all means....just do it already. Lmfao. It's been 45 days since you made a post in this thread. A thread BTW which I created to talk about everything in this world other than you. Now…
Thanks NNJCT, kind of you to say.
Welcome to the forums, FunSizedBG. I have heard countless people (men and women) right here in the forums talk about wanting the same thing that you are, so they are certainly out there. Finding the right one will probably no less difficul…
And there you have it. I didn't even know those were available for insulin. It looks pretty cool.
Wow, that was a short conversation. ;^/
Rain, rain....go away.
LS Lessons No. 34: Keep your eye on the ball, and remember to "dance with tha one that brung ya." Too many times folks get impatient and try to get too many irons in the fire at one time. Things get overlapped by doing that and unnecessary…
Courage
Welcome to the forums, GoodCouple. To your question, a resounding yes, you certainly can make lasting friends here. However, it requires patience. Like many other things it seems sometimes that the harder you look for it the more elusive i…
Damn, 5 out of the last six posters are on ole Allena's list or put her there. I might be wrong on this, but I believe that even rivals the Viscount of Vegas! ;^D
Seriously? The undisputed king of not-so-humble-brag scolding? WTF Now I know what it would feel like to be lectured about being kind to animals by Ted Bundy.
Yep, me too. ;^D Looks as though I'm in.pretty good company.

I think I'm a bit odd in this regard. I have never, even as a young man, been driven to want more than one woman at a time. Don't get me wrong, I totally understand this preference or desire in others, and I find absolutely nothing strange…
So far it's been another magical weekend with Ms Lady at the wheel. Saturday began as a road trip day with nothing particularly spectacular in the plans. But then, there is absolutely nothing ordinary about this gal. We drove back to Lady'…
Another huge sandpit is the consistent lack of any *useable* information in profiles. This is equally true across the board. Couples, females, and males alike rarely, in fact almost never, give the reader anything to talk about when consid…
Another important aspect which hinders the success of SSM is communication. The irony is that communication is unilaterally highlighted in practically every profile as being an essential, yet is is equally ignored by practically all on a c…
I have known people who create what they call lifestyle named which they use exclusively for people they interact with as swingers. Early on, Lady and I considered this as we both were in places in our working lives that made us a little n…
Wow, dood...did we ever read different comic books! I only got the vanilla sh**. You know, superman and stuff.
Sex is one of the few areas in which I am completely OK with others discriminating against me for absolutely any reason they wish. If a bi couple doesn't want me solely because I'm straight, if an AA woman doesn't want me because I'm white…
Oh well, guess that damn puppet turned his phone off. No worries though. I'm confident Lady will get a reply...in a week or two. ;^)
Yep
Well, no answer for ole Tramp guys. Just wait till Lady gets outta the tub! We'll see how his will power holds up.
Ok, that does it...I can't resist. I'm off to see if Lady or I can find the puppet master on kik. I betcha I find him first. Any bets on who he'll answer though?
Actually you can (make this sh** up). There's a jolly fella from Vegas who does it nonstop. Don't believe me? Just wait. He'll show up over here eventually. And just like the dick pics, he'll be uninvited.
I agree Fokk. I am also certain that many of us have missed out on some truly awesome times by getting a little caught up on our idea of perfect. I would never suggest that one should try and force themselves to play with someone who they…
Wings
Generally, I do not mix the two. It wouldn't be as much of a problem for me as it would be for Lady, but honestly, I just don't have a need to mix things together. I have more than enough vanilla and family associations to keep that cup ru…
One other note on that. Changing the dimensions the pic in the Word document by grabbing the highlighted handles will change the actual viewable size on that document, but it doesn't seem to change anything in terms of the physical (higth/…
It may be different on your version, but typical the photo will remain with the highlighted edges you use to resize with. They will go away if you accidentally click somewhere off of the image. You should be able to get them back by just c…
"Are dicks and pussies attractive?" I can't speak about the former, but put me in the *yes* column on the latter.
Compressing a photo using MS Word: 1) Open a new word document 2) Select the *Insert* tab and then choose *Picture* 3) Find the photo you want and double-click it, select it, whatever. It will then appear in your document with highlighted…
You've made my point for me three times now, MsMolly. I'm gonna leave it alone. ;^D (put that knife away...we can talk this out!)
Your experience isn't an isolated one. I especially have found it true where you speak of trying to make plans for a second date to play. I think the common problem at the clubs is that, while everyone there is excited on some level to try…
An afterthought here on selfies. There may be a notable difference between the creative selfie that you see everyday on other social venues and the mugshot pose standing in front of the bathroom sink. Some will not like either, but I truly…
I agree. I only hope that as many who can will drop some of their thoughts in here and the "profile sandpits" thread. The opinions will vary, but they are all worth considering. The one thing that I believe many of us will agree on is that…
Oh, ok
I do want to pass on a small technical peace of info that I picked up a couple of years ago here in another thread. If you browse profiles often you'll notice that some photos seem to load on the screen quickly while others may not load up…
I am not aware of anything specifically for that. My daughter is type 1 diabetic, so we became accustomed with the traveling issue a long time ago. Apart from the Styrofoam containers with dry ice that the pharmaceutical shippers used, we…
"How many women introduce themselves with a photo of their pussies?" You'll get no argument from me on that one, but that gets to another matter entirely that you and I have not yet resolved to its conclusion elsewhere. :^D And let me say,…
"How many women introduce themselves with a photo of their pussies?" You'll get no argument fromantic me on that one, but that gets to another matter entirely that you and I have not yet resolved to its conclusion elsewhere. :^D
I feel better now. Just you wait till you see me in my hobo suit...I even turn me on a little in that. 8^O
BT, have you been cleared to post yet? I haven't seen any paperwork. ;^/
I want to come back more specifically to a general comment I made earlier. Though I take a little humorous exception to a few things already mentioned, I wholeheartedly agree that it's best to avoid all of the "I don't wants" and just stic…
First, welcome to the forums, TNA. I'm unclear on something. Are you looking for help with your profile or suggestions about getting involved in swinging in general? Your original post seems to suggest the latter but, since it's here in th…
On a far more serious note...Velma has almost sent me into a cardiac episode here! I know that my photos aren't the best, but I was really happy with my main pic in the blue suit, jacket over my shoulder. But damn... I just noticed that if…
I know, right... We lost a great deal when the site deleted years of forum posts. Although, since there never was a realistic search feature, one could spend months on end looking for specific topics to little or no avail. Sigh...
I couldn't agree more with all but one of those. And, for the record, I find it particularly exciting if a lady's thighs jiggle a little...but that's just me. As for dicks not "being pretty," I have basically the same reaction to that as I…
Fair enough
I agree with that, but I'll add another line I see often. "If we want you we'll find you." That's a big turn off for us even if it's a couple contacting our couple's profile. In my view, it's completely acceptable not to be interested in o…
You are welcome, and I appreciate the complements...for us both. Hell, I've been drooling over the thoughts of Lady myself this morning. She's wearing some really cute stuff we found for her this weekend to work, and you should've seen her…
Fokk, I definitely understand your point, but I also understand that no two are alike. For our part, we are already prepared to play if we go to a LS club or something similar. If we make a connection there, we finish it there. However, th…
A belated welcome to the forums, Jjo. I'm not at all hesitant to say that you seem to be as passable (in your words) as any I've seen. Hell, I clicked on your profile just based on the photo and didn't even realize that you were a male. Be…
The first thing that I will say is that no public photos is always seen as a very bad sign for me. This even applies to the folks who have a few pics but only keep them hidden to be used on a case by case basis. While I completely understa…
SMH
There are so many hurtles to overcome when using online profiles to generate sexual encounters that it's hard to know where to even begin. One of the greatest, in my view, is the issue of moods. It's often overlooked, and I don't know why.…
As a companion resource to the "Profile Sandpits" thread, I believe it would be helpful to compile a list from different points of view where profile photographs are concerned. There's a lot to talk about here: ** What should be included *…
We used to have several threads that talked about the frequent red flags, off-putting aspects, or just things to avoid. The recent purging of old threads have done away with that so I thought it might be worth getting that collection back…
Though I'm part of a couple, I believe I have some standing to comment here as both Lady and I also play separately. I've only recently began using my SM profile to actively look for females though. I originally only intended it for postin…
Damn, if I could write like that I'd change jobs...today. But that begs a question from me, MsMolly. Why isn't that precise statement in your profile narrative? I think that paragraph is possibly the warmest, most inviting thing I have eve…
Amen.
@Fokk: I couldn't agree with you more. @MsMolly: Sorry, but us guys get/got the same passifyin treatment the gals apparently got. @therestofya: Ole Tramp can be irritating I know, but it's usually not on purpose. Sometimes, but not usually…
