Just read the fucking profiles, please?  The whole goddamn point of the profile is so that you get some idea (not a complete idea of course) of the person before you contact them.  This narrows your focus down to people that have a higher liklihood of actually being compatible with you.  Not everyone you contact will be, of course, but you will have more compatibility than if you just walked out your front door and hit on the first female you see walking down the street.  I am incensed that people think my novel of a profile tells him "nothing about [me]".  It tells you all the important things you need to know about me for first contact.  It tells you that I will not fuck you.  It tells you that I will not date you unless you're poly.  It tells you what some of my favorite tv shows are.  It tells you that I have two boyfriends already and that I'm not into girls.  It tells you that I like ballroom dancing.  It tells you that I have a huge chip on my shoulder and a serious attitude problem.  These are things that people should find helpful when deciding whether or not to contact me.  If I could wear all this on a sign around my neck to prevent assholes from coming on to me in real life, I would.  If all you see is a pretty girl in the grocery store and you want to meet her, wouldn't it help you to know if she was married or lesbian or looking for a prince to rescue her or a bitch?  If you hit on me in a club and I start a shouting match with you in public, wouldn't you have liked to know that about me before you approach me so that you could avoid me instead?
