Ahhh this is why I love you. Finally a woman to speak out on such atrocities forced upon what I love doing which is opening my mail. I, too get the same ads and yet Corey's email box is empty. He doesn't get "would you like a wider cervix? or softer vagina?" ads. It's annoying really. So I do the only sensible thing, forward them to my ex husband. So they do come in handy for at least that. I agree with you though, enough is enough.
your email address is on your website.
If you don't want it trawled, you have to write it out anti spam fashion and make people to type it into their mail client.
if you use a "mailto:" you are giving it away to spam robots.
too late now, however. Just change the first part to something different then do the no spam thing.

If you are an "out there" person on the web like me then you just have to have a private and a public email address, and expect spam.
I recently changed my email, enduring all the inconveniences and frustrations that went hand-in-hand with doing this, just to get away from all the spam my email address was attracting. Especially the offers to enlarge my non-existant penis and supply me with a lifetime's supply of "genuine" Rolex watches.
In all the posts, in all of Orble, I couldn't agree with any of them as much as this one (well apart from some of my own)...*chuckle* It is an isiduious industry, no doubt spurned by the same illness as that which preys on flat chested women (not that I have that problem, mind)... but all of it is erroneous, exactly as you say.
if you really are interested in having a woman’s eyes ‘light up with excitement,’ there are a whole host of much cheaper and less invasive tactics one might adopt, let’s say as a trial run, to get the romance going. Entertaining, witty repartee, for example, or a genuine interest in listening, or some fine motor co-ordination with parts of the body above the waist, will most assuredly light up any woman’s eyes
BRAVO!
Sadly though, such is the mindset in some of our sex, that I’m sure I don’t speak for all women when I say this, and indeed have sat on the edge of much female 'society,' because I have long since held the view that, '..you cannot measure a man by inches.'
Thanks Cib and Grumpy for your expertise - I will have to follow this up with my people.
Cheers, Lilla - I think we need to give the blokes a little break here - when is big enough big enough? Honestly, size does not make up for fumbling, inefficiency or lack of enthusiasm. Give me a bloke who understands that the world does not begin and end with his own equipment, and who makes it his business to know his way around a woman's body and I am his... well, not his, since I am married to the wonderful Zed, but his in spirit ...

I'd suggest opening a new private email address.
Also, some email providers do hefty spam filtering... my yahoo account gets almost no spam.
I've gotten that penis email with the two photos. That was definitely unnecessary.

I am really glad you have spoken out.
