I think that if you want to CHAT, they must have a profile so everyone knows who they are, at least a little info about who you are talking to.... [I]How do we know if we're not talking to a child, a man, or a woman? I can understand discreet to a point, but in here we are a family of Bi's. there is no reason to be in the closet here, I( am not asking for your real names or anything like what you do for a living. Just a little info so we dont have to ask a million F**ken quiestions... Also people that are in here, are in here to be with friends that share the same life style they do or want to be in. If you want to be discreet go to a streight site.... There you can try to hide who you are but Please don't try to hide who you are here....You dont need put a picture of your face, that can be ugly,lol, But if you can put some thing in your profile so we can get to know you......... Ok I said my peace and would love your :2cents:. TAKE :bipride: in who you are.................:flag4:

People usually just ask a/s/l? or something like it.

I don't consider this site to be a support group for myself/my sexuality, a family (Does this make me the black sheep then? LOL), and I don't go here for amateur porn/to cyber or hook up even though it's a sex site.

I don't care if people do go here to do those things but I will agree that it does get tiresome seeing people who have blank profiles or who don't have pics of their face and who just show a close up their cock/cunt and they never put a pic of their face up and they won't show you a pic of what they look like.

My main annoyance at the people who don't have pics of themselves of a profile filled out is that they'll ask to hook up and while I'm not into that at all I'd certainly never do it with someone on the internet who doesn't show their face at all and write about themselves so you can sort of get to know them on the internet even if people can lie about all sorts of things on here and do.

I don't chat on here as much as I used to and I prefer using chat programs instead since they're more stable, don't use java, and it's a lot better way to keep in contact with people than in a public chatroom.

I am not hiding who I am. I describe who I am in the forums and in chat. I have supplied a photo of my face to someone in chat that I trusted. I have my age, location and sex listed (I changed it to show my date of birth too just then) in my profile already.

I've written this before:
I don't have a profile filled out because I don't want a personal ad. I don't want a personal ad because I don't want offers for sex. I've still gotten one of those PMs anyway, though. If it was possible to fill out my profile in more detail without having a personals ad, I would jump at the opportunity.

A profile does not have to be a personal ad. In fact, a profile can be an "anti" personal ad. What you put in your profile lets people know who you are, and what you want. If you are here for friends, put that in your profile. If you are here for sex, then put that.

I think rocksguy's point is... if you pm someone, let the person know who you are. You don't need to give name, rank and serial number, but location and marital status would be nice, especially if you are propositioning that person.

And that is my :2cents:!

Bi the same token people who get an email might take a moment to answer it. Now you are done blowing off steam, reflect for a moment on why you don't answer people who take the time to email you. It takes all kinds to make this world..........they are all here.:2cents:

I have a lot of my bi friends here in Bradenton, Fl. and they haven't join this site yet. They didn't know it existed. Someone at a bi-party in Lakeland told one of my friends about this place as she recalled. So we were discussing about them joining here and they are not too keen on giving out too much info. As Rockg's guy said, you don't have to put every detail about you. Just brief bio, discription, what are you looking for, and perhaps a photo if you're not so shy or worried.

One thing I can not stand is people who lie in their profile. Don't make yourself out to be what you are not. Be honest about yourself. I met a guy awhile back who represented himself as 35 year old, 180 lbs, and 6'1" man.
Well, he turned out to be 70ish, 90 lbs, and about 5'3" tall. The photo of him wasn't the same. So from now on, I will ask for more than one photo of the person writing to me or a webcam verification. Otherwise, I will not meet you.

This site is here for a lot of reasons.

Some people come here to hook up, some to meet new people, some to understand their sexuality.

We joined to find Bi male friends in our area that we could play with and found a community that is more than that.

It's important that we have reasonably complete profiles on this site. It helps us to find out who it is we are talking/chatting with as well as helping us to find out if the person that we are interested in will be someone that we have some things in common with, both in and out of the bedroom.

When we see a message from someone who wants to get together with us, we want to be able to see if that individual will be compatible with us. A blank profile generally means that the individual has something to hide. That does not bode well for the person with the blank profile.

Of course there is the issue of discretion; Many of us want to be discrete and, if that's the case, then there are lots of places where one should be. However, as has been stated here by others, the people on this site are here for the same reasons as everyone else.
So if you insist on being discrete, then there are plenty of sites where everyone will be willing talk to you even with a blank profile. Just not so much on this site, or many other Bi sites.

There are millions of hook-up sites out on the web, if that is the only thing that you seek. But this place is a safe refuge for Bisexuals, and others of a non-hetero sexuality.

You can let it all hang out here.....safely.

I agree wholeheartedly Hon. You never know Who you are talking to sometimes. We've had a couple of 'kids' come into chat, and all they did was cause trouble and distention. But, even if they Did have a filled in profile, it too could be fake. Ya just never know with people. Only way you can tell is to listen(figuratively) to the way they talk and interact.
Just my humble 2 pennies too. :}
PS Hug Rocky for me..lol

I don't really care if people fill out the detailed section of their profile or even have pictures. Unless you're trying to find someone to hook up with it's not a big deal, but the basics of age and gender would be incredibly helpful. Names do not always imply the correct gender and a lot of people like to chat with those of their own age range. :2cents:

I have only been in the chat room once. But, even if I were there every day, my profile would not have a picture of my face. Besides, I would like to believe that the face you imagine is mine is even better than me. I like my life as it is, even if you don’t, and making my face available here is unnecessary. However, I am very willing to send a picture of all of me to someone I get to know and like.
So, you have your face picture here? Dam! That surly makes you a better person than me. Congratulations!

No, you don't. And I've never seen anyone fight so hard to be disliked and excluded....and then bitch about being disliked and excluded. Stop being so argumentative and defensive and join the family. Sorry you're not feelin' the love, but you reap what you sow.

Defensive? You're replying to my comment, not the other way around. LOL

Nice bible quote, though. LOL, right out of Galatians I see.

Peace, my Christian Brethren. Welcome to the family.

A profile does not have to be a personal ad. In fact, a profile can be an "anti" personal ad. What you put in your profile lets people know who you are, and what you want. If you are here for friends, put that in your profile. If you are here for sex, then put that.

I think rocksguy's point is... if you pm someone, let the person know who you are. You don't need to give name, rank and serial number, but location and marital status would be nice, especially if you are propositioning that person.

And that is my :2cents:!
I've added some more information about myself to my profile. I just hope that I don't get some unwanted attention because of it (one person that sent me a PM soon after I joined wasn't very pleasant...).

Well when someone who does not have a profile telling you who, or what they are wanting, e-mails you, why should we e-mail back? As for the e-mail you sent to me, sorry I was in a rant and have e-mailed you back..... I just want to know who I am talking to if they are looking for Friends or looking to hook up with someone, that makes chating a lot easier.....It takes a few minites to write just a little about what your wants are in here. again I don't want your life story,shit hat can be boring at times but a bref statement of what you are looking for here at Bi-Sexual.com. I enjoy chating with people whom I know what they are after..... Some of us are here just for the company of other Bi-sexual people to be friends and some of us are here to find people to hook up with to fulfill our wants..... take:flag3: Pride in who you are!!!!!!!

THIS IS NICE, see how easy it is just to write something, we now know who you are, bi looking at your profile. We now know you are here to find and talk to friends only so we wont have to ask you if you want sex, or " the fav. among idiots" are you horny? (I hate that one....)
take :bipride: Pride in who you are.......

I really think the issue is not whether someone has information in their profile or not---some of the more regular contributors on the site don't always have much info in their profiles and they are fun people who aren't here simply for cyber, phone or real hook-ups---the problem comes when the people who don't have much posted in their profiles do very often tend to be the ones who don't take part in things by posting on the boards or doing much public chat---they many times tend to be the ones who IM you as soon as you enter the room and haven't even set your text colors.

But---even that may not be a bad thing all the time because many times I have had some good chats with such people, and I don't mean necessarily everything talked about while PMing was about sex-in fact--in such conversations--other than the person expressing that he so wants to do "x"--the conversation rarely touches on sex--at least in a specific sense---I have found that many times--such people were new here and they are still a bit reticent about taking part in the main chat and are still simply "exploring" their "bisexual curious" side and are nice people, so it is not possilble to make sweeping generalizations about anyone---you just have to see what kind of person they are----and if they don't really want to simply talk at first and the first thing they type is "horny, with hard oozing cock ready for you to ..."---in those cases----I am generally not interested, thank you very much!!!:bigrin:

When it comes down to it---you have a choice about whether or not you will talk to someone--I would say to not be so set in what you think about whether someone has profile info or not--I do admit--I wish that they would some very basic info---it is really not that hard to do---but I have had some nice chats with people who had nothing in their profiles so, like I said--I'd say to have an open mind and see what the person is like who you talk to----if they give you the heebie-jeebies---then cut 'em off but don't also automatically say: "you don't have anything in your profile--and I don't talk to someone who doesn't"--you may be cutting off a conversation that could lead to a real if not a cyber friendship such as what people have on here.

Which family? The "family of Bi's" or the Christian family? Or do you mean the family that you have to be MADE in order to join? ;)
