Girls who don't add guys and VV

  • I love having male friends on here. They tend to have much more balanced outlooks on weight loss and always have an encouraging word.

    In for more male friends! :flowerforyou: :love:

    I have wonderful male friends who are married, single and gay and I support them and they support me and that's all that matters.

    I, personally, haven't found any males to relate to, nor am I comfortable hashing out my weight issues with a man. It's embarassing enough with another girl, but for some reason talking to a male about it makes it more substanial. And from what I've heard from a lot of guys IRL and online, its a lot of 'suck it up and deal with it'. I find women to be more understanding, more caring, and less harsh with their critiques and suggestions.
    Again, this is just with the experiences that I'VE had, and I'm in no way saying that all guys (or girls) are like that.

    I send and accept requests whether male or female... shoot, I'd probably accept a unicorn if they give mutual support and have a positive outlook on weight loss, gaining muscle, etc.! :laugh:

    I've seen this come up quite a bit lately and I"m just wondering why or why not? It never occurred to me to not add men... I noticed some men don't add women either? I've seen reasons like "it's not a dating site, or my husband/wife wouldn't like it". i don't know about you but I"m perfectly able to keep my virtual panties on in the presense of my male friends. Am I missing something?

    I have some guy mfp, but have quit adding ones that only want girl friends. I have received messages from guys wanting pictures of my boobs, or photos of me in a bikini (which no one wants to see trust me), and I figure it's a waste of my time filtering through the ones that are on here for weight loss and the pervs. If I see a man posting and they have lost weight or I think I could learn something of value from them I add them. Otherwise I am fine with only my women friends.

    oh boy here we go

    Sorry, is this one of "those topics"??? I've only been here since March and I'm familiar with the Clean Eating vs IIFYM debate but not this one hehehe

    You'll also find the 1200 calorie debate, the eat your calories back debate, and if your weight loss ever stalls will either be told you aren't eating enough and your body is in starvation mode or the other side is to cut your calories way back.
  • Not having a photo of yourself on your profile tends to weed out all the pervs. I have both male and female friends. The females are definitely more 'chatty' but I'm happy either way :)

    Doesn't matter to me. I just tend to get more female requests. But I have males on my list as well. I love everybody :blushing: Lol

    I would have to buy a bikini to actually take a picture, so they aren't getting that one. My boobs are too big, all of my girl friends would be too jealous to ask for a picture of them. lol

    maybe they went to an all girls or all boys school as kids and don't know how to mingle in adulthood because its always been taboo?

    There seems to be more women on this site than men for a start, so chances are majority of someones friend list is going to be female. Basically I add anybody that seems inspirational/determined, they're the kind of people I like to have on here, helps towards my motivation having a day by day update of somebody else's success.

    I am pretty much a friend *kitten*. Or the village bike, whatever you want to all it. I accept any and all requests. It has never occurred to me to be picky. Unless it gets weird, and so far it hasn't.

    Because they are loyal to his/her gf or bf or wife or husband.

    I cannot tell if this is sarcastic or not.

    But I don't see how having male friends motivating me online would be considered cheating on my boyfriend. I mean, each relationship is different, but I'm certainly not hiding anything from my boyfriend by using MFP.

    I don't have secret cybersex with all of the men on my FL.

    Not all but some?

    Hi, you're hot, can we KiK, then yahoo, and then talk about how sweet your pixels look and how I stroke my keys on my keyboard? eh, I don't get it.

    for the record, I have many women on my FL and my wife would invite most of them into the bedroom anyway. :smokin:

    I'm like that. I just don't feel that...

    Wait! How did all these women get on my FL? I bet they were wearing beards when they made the FR. Foiled again.

    In seriousness though, I know some people do not want even a hint of a resemblance of impropriety, and therefore eliminate all ways in which they can have a private interaction with a member of the opposite sex. I don't understand completely, but I will honor their wishes. Whatever trips their trigger.

    I didn't have any guys on my FL until some genius woman here started a shirtless guys thread last year. Then I was all like "GIMME GIMME GIMME!" Yeah. :bigsmile:

    My male friends would probably delete me if I started wearing virtual panties.

    Hurry hold my hand...I think there may be some that are more purvey than I am.
    Oh hey are them you slick summer undies?:love::flowerforyou:

    I accept male friends. I know some women have had some creepers though.

    So have some men. I had a creeper who figured out my kids names, their school activities, schedule and all. She had already plotted our scottish wedding and everything. This relationship lasted about 23 hours mind you.

    I'm an equal opportunity *kitten*, so I don't discriminate based on gender. This is a dating site, right?
