Tips from a woman on how to answer these ads for optimal results

As usual, the meta-conversation on Craig's List personals is quite amusing -

It would seem that anyone posting a "w4m" ad in the Casual Encounters section is immediately innundated by thousands of pictures of stiff penises and the textual equivalent of grunts and pokes. "Me hard, we go."

One woman took the time to share some advice for men replying to casual encounters posts. I copied it below, before it was deleted:

As a woman posting here on CL I get hundreds of responses in a short time. I am sure that you have all heard the stories or had female friends that got hundreds of responses while you got 1 or 2 or even none at all. However I usually only answer 5 or 6 out of every 200 I get. Here's a couple of rules I follow. One is penis pics. I have to see a guys face to want to fuck him. Usually his cock will be in one of my orifices at the time and I will be looking at his face not his cock. A nice clothed shot in a polo shirt will get you far. After you send me the face shot and we have a little erotic email back and forth I might let you send me a penis pic. But it is no way to introduce yourself. Disembodied parts do not arouse most women. Sorry. all these pics you guys send look so weird, it's as if you are all at home full of self love and taking pics of yourselves in the bathroom mirrors and thinking you are God's gift to women. Just too strange. Also, don't mention penis size in the headlines of your emails, please. As for appropriate photos, how about a nice outdoor shot. Look like you might have an interest in something other than sex. Guys with interests and talents are attractive. Thats why Rock Stars and athletes get all the pussy.
Two is don't be rude. Emails such as, how much do you weigh, will not stand out in the crowd and make you seem interesting or intelligent I don't care how many times you have been burned in the past. Approach each ad as if you think that this is a beautiful and slender woman. Is it our faults that you all are sending penis pics and the gay guys have caught on to this fact and it is really only they that are interested in seeing your cock? Stop with the penis pics and you won't get so many posers. Three is personalize, personalize, personalize. If you answer an ad, sound as if you have actually read the ad. I don't believe that you guys are reading the ads. You are answering all the ads from females trying to up your chances by the sheer odds. But if you took the time to personalize, I bet that you would receive more responses than answering every ad with a what's your weight question. How about it goes like this. You answer an ad where an Asian hottie says she is looking to swallow a whole load of cum in one day on account of her cheating boyfriend got a blowjob from her best friend. Your answer would go something like this. I just wanted to apologize for the terrible way that your no-good cheating dog of a boy friend treated you and I am very interested in the delightful scenario that you propose. I am ready, willing, safe and sane and happy to oblige you in anyway that you should desire. Attached is a photo of me with my dog at Children's Hospital, where we go every weekend to cheer up terminally ill kids.
