The internet is a funny thing. If bored, there is plenty to read about, look at, and search for on the web. One thing I haven't really gotten into though is the whole internet dating thing. It seems a little sketchy to me, but I have quite a few friends who swear by it and are in long term relationships as a result from it. So...the other day I was perusing craigslist looking for violins when I stumbled across their personal ads section. And like any curious human being, I clicked on Women seek Women. Whoa. There are so many blatant ads for sex. I couldn't believe this was on craigslist. There are some ads that are just way over the top, nude photos and all. But then there are also the innocent "I'm just curious" kind of ads. Some of them seemed harmless and I even thought about responding to one...like this one...
I want fun, cute girls to party with! - 24

Hey girls! Yes, girls. Let me make that clear - i am only looking for those individuals of the FEMALE gender. And i do not want to be that one night addition to your relationship that subsequently destroys it.
Ok, now that we've got that out of the way, I am looking for girls, lesbian or bi to party & hang out w/ me and/or my friends. Very casual to start. At this point i'm just interested in meeting cool girls who also like cool girls. And like to dance & get trashed & are preferrably 4:20 friendly, etc.
I am a cute, spunky bi girl who is also very cerebral & abstract. I am NOT all about sex & am not interested in anyone who just wants to hook up. Friendship is cool. Casual dating is cool. Making out is definitely cool. From there, we'll see what happens. Please send me a pic or two of yourself, along with whatever you feel like sharing & i'll send a pic or two back!
I look forward to hearing from you! This is my first personal ad ever so I have no idea how this will go...
tata!
this is in or around Los Angeles
it's NOT ok to contact this poster with services or other commercial interests

Soo...this ad seems like a nice enough ad. She seems cool, down to earth, and fun...assuming she actually is a "she". She doesn't seem like one who just wants to get her rocks off...she seems to genuinely want to just meet other cool girls...friends or more...tbd. (tbd? Oh no. Am I starting to talk personal ads? Whoa.) Who knows...maybe this girl is actually really HOT. I can relate to the type of girl she's looking for. Who knows, maybe something great can come out of this. But I don't know about responding to a personal ad. What if I know this girl!? I don't get to see her email but she gets to see mine. Oh my god...what if that happened? I mean, look at her description: she likes to dance, get "trashed" and celebrates 4:20. That's like all my friends! (Well, maybe not all, but really, that could be anybody.) Then...for a girl to say she's "bi"...well, it's not saying much. Frankly, I think most everyone is a little bisexual. And especially in this day and age...what girl isn't experimenting a little (like Andrew should), or at least...what girl hasn't thought about it...especially if you live in this city. My point: this girl could be anyone. I. know. In fact, she could even be me! Well, except for the bi part. But you know what I'm getting at. She could be...Carolyn...Suzie...Becky! Aha! Can you imagine?! I should respond and send her a photo of one of my friends...or one of my roommates...just to see what this girl does. I should send her a photo of Becky. Becky is hot, spunky, all of the above criteria. And it wouldn't be with malicious intent...just curiosity...which I'm sure is the stem of the very personal ad in discussion. Personal ads, huh. Maybe.
