First off…No, I don’t know who Mike is. I think it’s simply spam, or perhaps someone who liked my website and thought that since I write erotic, I had to try everything out before I wrote about it or something. LOL
Secondly…How sad is that? I think it’s super sad that there is even a site out there called Online booty call. Now, don;t get me wrong here. I’ve tried the online dating thing. I’ve even gone about it the wrong way and taken a guy I met through an online dating thing home the first night I met him. My mistake. I thought our online conversations had helped me get to know him, and I’d really liked him. I had Kelsey say this in MY PREROGATIVE, and I believe it. Women like online dating because there’s less pressure on looks, and they think they can really get to know a person buy chatting with them. They can be themselves, adn find someone who likes them for who they are.
Men like online dating because they can be who they want to be online, instead of who they really are. Some married men say they’re single, some guys use photos from College. Many of them say they want a relationship, but really just want sex.
OKay, that was my experience.
The thing is, I’m not against casual sex. If people are safe, and honest about their intentions I say go nuts. Sex is part of life. It makes us feel good, all those endorphins rushing through our veins and letting us know we’re human. Sex is fun and pleasurable and healthy. But a social networking site dedicated to booty calls leaves a bad taste in my mouth. It’s not like running into a hot guy in the gym, grocery store, or even a bar, and feeling that zing of attraction that makes your insides quiver in desire. There’s no rush from flirting, no mating dance to warm you up and make you feel desired in return.
To me, the idea of it just seems lazy and tasteless. What do you think?
I’d guess it’s the straight equivalent of gay bathroom hookups?
I totally agree with you, Sasha. There is just something about the idea of people randomly selecting someone they’ve never even seen to have sex with that is just so tacky and tasteless. I know plenty of people who use the online dating sites to find someone for sex, but it still makes me feel slightly disillusioned that they’ve created a site like this one.
Ditto, the Zing is missing when
you are home in front of the screen.
The first blush of that connection
is irreplaceable.
The thing is, men don’t need that spark, that initial zing. They can have sex with just about anyone, just about any time.
Women are just wired differently. And that’s the unfortunate thing. We use sex to get love, men use love to get sex.
We’re all fucked up!

I do agree that it’s probably perfect for most men. LOL And I’m okay with sex without love. LOL But I do like attraction. Ordering it up like a pizza isn’t as appealing as flirting and anticapation. :)
It is a sad state of affairs, indeed, Sasha. Personally, I would be afraid of the online dating thing…except for EHarmony.com. Our cousin (recently home from Iraq) met a girl through EHarmony while overseas. They went through the workshop, counseling, etc…clicked…and now they are happily married. The whole family adores her! Anything else out there I would totally stay away from…It’s amazing how many crazies are lurking in those corners.
Hey Sasha,
I think it sounds like a great book title.
I also agree with Vivi Anna!
Yup, yup–”lazy and tasteless” pretty much sums it up. :)
Sasha,
Wow, yea, the whole online dating thing is such a easy way for people to hide who they really are — become someone that they really aren’t. Sad, but true. I wonder, though, if woman are also the predators out there in the online dating community? I had a bad experience with online chatting, then meeting the guy, but I wonder if women also put themselves out there to be much more than they really are?
I have to agree, though, that men are wired different than women! And the saddest part is that some of these online guys know a lot more about how we’re wired then we know about how they’re wired!! How fair is that?
LOL, I supposed. But really, why be more than you are just to get a piece? I guess we, women that fall for men like that, should be flattered? Hmmm…not so sure!
