Why are so many men visiting my profile?

I have gay friends, and a couple of my kids are involved in non cisgender or fluid-gender relationships; and, I'm sort of metro, but I can't figure out if I'm an alt-attractor, or if I'm just that interesting.. (I'm not, really, that interesting. I read my books, write my code, and play my music.)

I have equal number of men and women visiting my profile. I also check out both, not in a romantic way but just because people are interesting and I enjoy reading about both. I do not usually check out the pictures on those profiles!! So my guess your posts make you interesting. Nothing more.

For goodness sake! This kind of post comes comes up all the time. @genessa summed it up nicely. It’s a community, we generally like to know who were engaging with. It’s really not a big deal.

Really? Why don't any men visit mine? Only women. I'm happily married and not interested, ladies 🙂

Take it as a compliment! You're obviously saying interesting things so people want to see who you are.

i am female and not seeking a date or anything like a date and i visit profiles all the time, without regard to gender. visiting a site doesn't automatically mean sexual interest. if you post or comment something i think is dumb, i want to see who said that. if you post or comment something i think is smart, i want to see who said that. if i move my mouse and it goes past your name or picture, oops, i've hovered. maybe i even go back and see who i hovered over, maybe even visit the page. but i'm a woman so you'd think maybe i was checking you out for, i don't know, potential fatherhood? rofl! so men want to see who you are, too, for a variety of reasons, most of them having nothing whatsoever to do with physical attraction. and not to deflate you or anything, but i haven't checked your profile yet so i don't even know if you're that interesting.

Exactly what I do. I want to get some context from their background (bio, etc) to understand their post /comment better.

They may be hovering which is usually an accident. Also just because someone visits your profile here does not mean they are into you. It is a discussion place to. People want to figure out who they are talking to sometimes. They could be checking out the competition.

There can be a bunch of reasons, people want to know who they are talking to, your picture could be who their mouse rests on, and so on and so forth, don't get your panties in a bunch, after a while, you'll find you do the same thing. You can't remember everyone you interact with and it's a good refresher before you answer their post. Be flattered , people are at least making sure who you are before they respond.

Sounds like you're just mildly homophobic. I think that's a fairly normal hetero reaction, because we don't understand homosexuality (we may think we do).

You may be reading too much into it. There's a hover feature you can turn on and off in your settings. It's a normal feature of this site.
