Sorry, but a profile is all about selling yourself. With who knows how many profiles on here [Nannette knows] you usually have one shot at attracting someones attention. If you don't have that GREAT looking photo posted who's going to stop and take notice? So now you have there attention with the photo, unless you look like a model [there are a lot of shallow hal's and halet.s] you have to give them a reason to want to say hello. You have to say something to sell yourself, display some sort of a personality through your written words. The basics are pretty much the same for everyone.
The type of vehicle I would compare myself to would be a 71 lime green Cuda with a hemi--any thing but practical great fun and tough looking.

When I read the profiles of the guys, I look at things alot differently than most people. I enjoy reading the profiles because I get a picture of what the person thinks about. The only concern I have is if it is an honest answer or not. I am as honest as I can be and I would hope others would be as well. I feel that if a guy is building himself up that is the way he perceives himself and some gals enjoy that kind of thing. All of us are different and see people differently. We are not the same. So we have to read into what helps us to know the person and hopefully the person will come into chat and we will get to know them better. Then if one of us is a RUBY member we can exchange info and then talk on the phone and finally meet in person. Who knows what will happen after that? I have not posted a picture because I want people to get to know me before they see my picture. Then after knowing me they can judge whether they(a guy in my case) will want to persue a relationship with me. Because looks are skin deep and character is really who I am on the inside not out.

The profiles are only a small instrument to guide us toward connecting with a person or persons based upon very simple and basic information. I think it is important to know what it is in a potential mate or partner we are desiring and put our desires out there honestly. I think most people try to be as honest as what good would it be to put down false information and waste people's time who are honestly looking for companionship and or a life long mate.

This is an interesting topic. I do not feel that the purpose of my profile is to sell myself. For one, I do not view myself as a product to be bought or sold. Even if you were to apply the automobile analogy, some folks want a Corvette while others want an SUV. Which brings up a fun question. If we were going to compare ourselves to a type of vehicle what would it be and why? I'm thinking a sports sedan--practical yet fun and nice to look at.
I also do not care for long profiles. I'm just looking for the basics. Don't tell me you're honest, sensitive, blah, blah, blah. If you are indeed those things, just show me with your actions. As for getting acquainted, it would be nice of more men used the chat rooms. They are an excellent way to interact and get to know someone to decide if you would want to pursue a relationship.

I've rewritten parts of my profile several times. As I grow and change I find that I need to word things differently or add or take things out of my profile to better reflect the person I am slowly becoming.
I've also learned after being on the site for a while, that some men (can't say all cause I haven't spoken to them ALL) don't like long, wordy profiles. They like find out the details about you as they get to know you, rather than having lots of information initially.
