Red Flags:

-Quotes as bio. Any quote. Doesn't matter what it is.

-Preferred pronouns. Big nope.

-Hiking under her list of hobbies (unless most of her photos show her outdoors).

-Only photos are indoor selfies.

-Only photos are of her with groups of other girls.

-Short, multi-coloured hair. Not as much of a red flag if it's long. This one is mostly based on anecdotal experiences for me.

-Fixated on hating children, cats or dogs. Hard pass. It's fine to not be fond of them or want them, but if one of your defining traits is hating children or animals, you're creepy.

-Fixated on one music genre without being a musician. This is the kind of person that will lecture you on shit you're an expert in. This is also the kind of person that will have a mid-life crisis.

Green Flags:

-Solo photos of her out and about. Playing sports, fishing, at a restaurant, travelling, painting, whatever. A selfie or two is all right, but I want to see that she actually does things and has a life.

-No more than one photo with friends (if any at all). Also shows she has a social life, but isn't insecure or trying to prove anything.

-Normal coloured hair at almost any length or style, butch or femme.

-Bilingual. Real exposure to another language and culture outside the anglosphere.

-Some kind of creative talent. Putting in the effort to master a certain skill is sexy.

I never understood the fixation on hating kids or pets where it becomes a personality trait. Hate adults, they are knowing shitty lol.

I don’t get it either, and I’m childfree.

Aw, that's so unfair. I don't even own a selfie stick.

Yeah I never take hiking pics because I’m just enjoying the scenery. I might take pics of the mountains but I won’t be in them. Seems like a weird thing to judge people for... like do you WANT them to spend all their time in the woods taking selfies lol

It's more that most girls I've met that list hiking as a hobby on their dating profiles don't actually like hiking and spend most of their time indoors.

I know that’s a thing, I just feel like your method is gonna help you find the girls who want to show everyone they’re outside and come in fancy gear, not the people who just like being outside
