Local Women Who Want Sex, and Choose Who Gets It
Local women on ShagDates are not here by accident. They're women who want sex with someone new, and they want it without the games that come with mainstream dating apps. They pick their own conversations, they name their own preferences, and they have very little patience for men who can't do the same.
Women who want sex and know their own minds are the best company there is. To meet local women here, start by understanding what they're after. That's what this page is about: who they are, why they're here, what turns them on, and what gets you quietly ignored.
Who they are
The women here are not who you'd guess
Women who work shifts and grab their fun when they can. Women who live on their phones and flirt between meetings. Women fresh out of long relationships who never got to have this kind of fun. Women who've been single for years and like it that way. Some are new to all of this, some have done it for a long time and know precisely what works for them.
What they share is clarity. Women looking for sex on ShagDates generally know what they want before they log in: a particular kind of man, a particular kind of night, and a particular amount of build-up. Some arrive with a fantasy they've never told anyone about; others just want good sex with a man who isn't hard work. The ones who are unsure take their time, and they're worth the wait.
What they want
Why women looking for sex choose a site like this
Ask the women here why they joined and you'll hear the same answers. On mainstream apps, saying they wanted sex made some men turn rude and others turn clingy. Here, it's simply understood. They can be honest about desire without having to manage anyone's feelings about it.
They also like control. On ShagDates, women set the pace. They decide who gets a reply, how long the chat lasts and when, or whether, a meet happens. That control is exactly what makes so many of them enthusiastic once they've found someone they like.
What turns them on
What the women here actually want in bed
Between them they cover every taste you can think of. Some want to be seduced slowly over a long evening, every button undone at her speed. Some want a man who can keep up with them, or who'll take charge once she's said yes. Some want to try the thing they've only ever read about, with someone they'll never have to see at the supermarket.
Plenty want a regular, a familiar body on a Sunday afternoon who already knows exactly how they like it. Others want variety and a different face each month. Profiles usually say which, and the women who don't will happily tell you if you ask nicely. Plenty of women here say a man who simply asks what she likes, then remembers the answer, goes straight to the top of her list.
That's why mass messaging fails so badly here. A line written for everyone fits nobody. A message that responds to what one particular woman said she likes stands out immediately.
What gets a reply
An honest photo, a profile with some personality, and an opener that proves you took in what she wrote.
What gets ignored
Copy-and-paste openers, pushing for photos straight away, and anything that treats her like a number.
Getting a yes
How to get a yes from local women
Start with her, not your own needs. Respond to something she wrote, ask about it, and let your interest show without overdoing it. Keep the first message short. If she replies, match her energy: flirt when she flirts, slow down if she does.
Don't rush the meet, and don't stall it either. When the conversation is clearly warm, suggest something concrete and easy to say yes to. Plenty of local women prefer a first drink in a place they choose, and the men who happily go along with that tend to get second invitations.
Meeting
When you meet, let her lead
The first meet is usually a drink and a conversation, and that hour matters. Be the man from the messages: same humour, same honesty. Listen more than you talk. If she wants to move on, she'll make it obvious, and if she doesn't, accept it gracefully.
If she does invite you back, remember that her place means her rules. Let her set the music, the lights and the speed. The women here often say the best nights are the ones where a man is confident enough to take his time, attentive enough to notice what she likes, and happy to stay for the coffee in the morning if she offers it.
For the logistics of the evening itself, our guide to planning the night with her covers where to meet and how to agree what you both want first. If you'd rather go straight to arranging something soon, see how to meet up for sex this week.
Somewhere near you, a woman is reading profiles tonight and deciding who gets a reply. Make it an easy yes.
Join and say helloRespect
What women here wish men knew
No unrequested explicit photos, ever. No pushing for a phone number in the second message, and no turning every reply into innuendo before she's set the tone. No sulking if she says no, or says not yet. Ask what she likes rather than assuming, and actually listen to the answer.
None of that makes things less exciting. It makes her relax, and a woman who feels safe and wanted is far more likely to say yes to the bar, then the taxi, then breakfast.
The search
Meet local girls the grown-up way
People search for local girls for sex and expect a list of photos. The reality on a good site is better: grown women with full profiles and clear ideas of what they want, who you can actually talk to and actually meet. Treat it as meeting real people, because that's what it is.
If you're still choosing where to look, here's how to tell a working sex site from a dead one, including the warning signs of fake profiles you'll find elsewhere.
Questions about local women
Are the local women on ShagDates really looking for sex?
Yes. Women join ShagDates because they want sex with someone new and want to be upfront about it. What each woman wants varies, so read her profile carefully and message the ones whose idea of a good night matches yours.
Who usually makes the first move?
Either can. Plenty of women message first when a profile grabs them. If you message first, keep it short, specific and respectful, and leave the next step to her.
Do women here prefer confident men or quiet ones?
Both, depending on the woman. What none of them like is arrogance or neediness. Stay relaxed, be honest about your intentions, and show her you're enjoying the conversation.
Do women on ShagDates want relationships?
Many don't, at least not in the usual sense. They want good sex and good company without the admin of a relationship. Some are happy with a regular arrangement; respect whatever she tells you she wants.
What do women find most attractive in a message?
Effort and confidence in equal measure. Proof you read her profile, something that makes her laugh, and an obvious idea of what you'd like, without pushing.
