The one lady that I have continued to converse with we have talked about religion, travel and food. If I do get a reponse I usually don't call them gorgeous but look for something we have in common. However, I find it counter to my nature not to compliment someone if I think they're beautiful - I don't think that's bad manners. Its like a work of art - why not say something good if you enjoy it. I know what my interests are. I probably wouldn't hang with someone I could not talk to. I've made comments besides looks. Right now I'm just getting exhausted just thinking about it.

Gosh. You really are set in your ways aren't you!
Compliments are great. But not as an introduction!
Women and men on dating sites KNOW ALREADY that people messaging them find them attractive. No one is going to initiate conversation on a dating site with someone they do not find attractive.
You do realize you compared women to pieces of artwork right? That by saying that, you LITERALLY objectified my entire gender?
No one likes to be viewed as a piece of artwork. You will argue about models, but their profession is being a piece of someone else's artwork. They likely don't enjoy being objectified in their personal lives.
