It's also curious how many women's photos show them
a) holding a dead fish
or
b) sitting next to, or holding, a glass of wine
or
c) with a guy's arm around them

Well hunting (nor fishing) and having a veg*n diet are not mutually exclusive. We have a veg*n hunter here on VB for example.

I think "mixed complexion" says it all :dizzy: This could actually be quite disturbing. :-/
Wow. Omg wow. :no: There are so many things I could comment on. But all I'm going to say is;
Shopping at Wal-Mart is important enough to her that it made her (short) list of favorite things in a freakin' personal ad? :wall: Woah.

The fact that "her best color is Blue" is one of her favorite things? :p

This is the best sentence:
"am sexy and good and great always looking for who will help me and always seroius."

A: They like to have fun, but obviously not your kind of fun. It's "culturally correct" and they are doing both you and the guy they're looking for a favor, so long as this really is what they mean.
B: That one would have been marked off my list instantly. "Class" is what is meant to be conveyed, but it's about as classy as a cigarette in the mouth.
C can mean one of two things, but both things would have put them out of the race for me. The most obvious indication is that there is another guy around and they are not over him, hence they used the picture for their profile. The other is possibility is that they are not aware of what messages their actions send. They're likely to step square on your foot and expect you to apologize for yelping out suddenly.

I may have to disagree on B and C... women would want to show a picture where they're dressed up and maybe the pictures were taken at a social event. could be a relative.
anthony, darling....
she listed "shopping at Walmart" under her "favorite things"
'nuff said :D

Oh, this isn't someone I'm at all interested in - I just found the set of statements notable.
I'm sure that many of the guys in photos are relatives, but they often look like bar or par-tay settings, not dress-up occasions.

I asked my Mom what a vegan fisherman prince was and she sent me to my room for saying a bad word.
