Based on the email thread below, how do the ladies like to be initially contacted? Email, Text message, mobile phone or carrier pigeon? Is one safer then the other?

The simple answer is to look at her website, most providers will tell you exactly how best to reach her.  Some prefer phone, others email, others a contact form on the web.  None are safer, or riskier than others, which is why you have to do your homework!!!

It's different for each lady, so it is best if you go their website and see which method they prefer for that initial contact.  They usually are quite clear on which method they prefer.

Wasn't Bandit traveling with Frog?1?  I know there was a cute "Little Beaver" in the convoy.  And how else do you contact Daisey Duke???

I prefer email
That way you can write about YOU, your likes, dislikes

AND one can tell a lot about a person on how he writes and articulates

Curious now ladies..
How heavy is the email you get?
How many  emails do you actually answer?
