There's a whole subreddit dedicated to childfree people, it's great when you feel outnumbered with people with baby fever;)

We really need a childfree dating site.

Ok guys, I was doin a set of chat experiments... to find out the influence of a woman on another in their attraction to a man.

I was chatting with this girl from my fake profile as "female" and I was telling her positevely before about "Sam", my real profile.

- and she got somehow interested in my real profile, she replied to my real account and she was like "other girls seem to like you too", "ther's a girl talking about you and she likes you" - that girl is the fake me.

Now I dropped this bomb.

That's one sample girl, but it's always the same reaction... mocking or playing along with the mocking with the "female me". Yet they pretend otherwise
when they chat with the real me.

Don't be fooled guys, I learned another thing from, unsurpringly, most girls are by far shallower than what they pretend in front of you. And if another girl points to a guy's some conventionally inattractive trait whether it's physical or personality, the other girl often agree and go along with the attitude toward this trait - this how the hive mind is developed, about what's attractive in guys and what's not.

Now who's gonna bet that this one will no longer reply me or show interest in the real me?

Well, it is a good harmless tactic to make sure if a date interest would be attracted to you, at least physically.

Most women DON'T read info physical details on men's profiles (yet they demand men to read everything so they can craft the perfect first message lol) like in the example above and most don't fill such details - so for example when it comes to height, i would have no idea whether this girl is taller(=farmore likely to be disappointed) or shorter than me, unless I bring it up snd sound like a complicated cheeseball.
What's funny if I bring it up and be like "would you care if I am shorter than you?" - I never get a positive response to that, they would be like giving me a manhood lecture how I should have confidence and how I shouldn't have short man syndrome ... and bla bla bla instead of answering the simple question honestly and directly with a yes or no.

In the method above, I learned exactly what's her preference and more importantly her attitude toward my height - so not wasting time to pursue her further.

Ok chatting her from my fake account was an extra time but still it was still less time/effort/awkward/costly/sad than meeting up a disappointed date in person.

^damn if most women are so shallow and judgmental I am beginning to wonder why some of you here even want girlfriends....why would you want to share your life with someone you initially assume all those nasty things about?

And Boo how do we know your social experiments aren't staged? how do we know this 'other girl' who was supposedly making fun of your height isn't just a another of your fake profiles on that site?

Accusing me of staging it, nice.

I can show your their profiles and how they are in different locations; yet you will accuse me again of faking locations.

No they are persons who aren't me.

Nor I said that most women are shallow, I just said most women don't check profiles well.

Swealeaf, do me a favor, I don't want to talk to you anymore.

I never liked your tone honestly, in many of your posts you always seemed patronizing on guys what to do on dating sites, and you don't take their experiences seriously, yet you never experienced it how it is like. And always militantly defending any female; and you often put words in mouth.

Bug off from me please, Sweetleaf.

No, it is a bad point and totally nonesense:

First, I never said.

Second, even if theoretically most people are that shallow and judgmental, it is still a very basic human need to be wanting a life partner.

Sweetleaf never said that you did say it. I think she means more that surely its not a real lose because why would you want to be with a girl that shallow

Nope, you got her wrong; she didn't mean it in that context; she was clearly implying that this what I was implying plus she's implying I have a hidden agenda to make most women sound bad, read all her post. I clearly said that I don't want this girl so it is not what she meant.

I am not that fool.

Being tall is so overrated. I'm 6'2" and I still don't get many dates.

Sometimes I think my height may be intimidating to some girls.

Certainly girls look for other traits besides just height, they also look at body, face, demeanor, etc.

My problems are that I'm slightly overweight, I don't smile much (I look grumpy even when I'm not grumpy) and I have the same facial structure as a three-toed sloth.

Its not nonsense, if you by default assume any woman you talk to is a shallow jerk who only likes tall guys and will cheat on a whim and things like that...why would you be interested in a relationship with one of those terrible creatures?
