Ambrose2007: That makes sense, and I don't mean to imply that women lack common sense about the WVM. From previous readings, I have had the impression, however, that women find it more significant than men do. By that I mean that in previous threads some women have wondered why WVM don't contact them, that kind of thing.
i can't speak for other's ...just answer for my self

A little rephrasing I think ... some women have wondered why men who repeatedly WVM don't contact them!!

I can answer that for myself. When I'm in a thread, if someone says something prolific or has a nasty attitude I look at their profile to get an idea of what they are all about. When someone is nasty in a thread they usually have written a heart warming profile to attract women. It gives me a better idea of who they are in the thread vs. who they are when looking for a relationship. I will show up on their WVM but I don't have any interest in them.
My WVM has guys who have probably done the same thing with my profile. They're just curious of who I am..

Yeah, same with me. Probably 99% my profile views are triggered by wondering about a poster.
Ambrose2007: Not meaning to put words into anyone's mouth...but my impression (from a brief perusal of this thread) is that some women think there's something significant, like an indication of romantic interest, in being viewed. Am I wrong in thinking that?
heck no .. just like to see who's looking ... no fun if they don't flower or e-mail ...
Ambrose2007: I've even been thanked for viewing someone's profile (on a few occasions).
I can only speak for myself here, but I've viewed...I don't know...maybe a hundred profiles?...and of those viewings maybe two had anything remotely resembling a romantic interest for me. Of course, it's always possible you might find something that could generate that kind of interest when viewing a profile. My favorite profile - one that generated tons of interest! - involved a very ballsy handle that remains my favorite to this day.
