Is it wrong to meet online?

Do you meet someone off here - this is the question.

I had some spare time to watch daytime tv and the presenter of the particular show was saying that women who meet men off the internet are debasing and disrespecting themselves - if its for sex or not. This sounds a little like it's ok for the men but not the women. He also talked about the risks of meeting complete strangers... but is it any different to picking up in a bar?

I have met a few people off this site and some have been amazing people who have remained friends, others have been run for the hills types, and of course there are those who are just like ships in the night... you meet and keep moving not because they are psychos but wrong time wrong place wrong person kinda thing... kinda like kerb kickers who are waiting for something but they don't know what but its a temporary meeting and moving on.

I think in today's world meeting online has become almost normal but you still need to be savvy about it.

 Why should there be anything wrong with meeting somebody online?
It is a big wide world out there and how one chooses to conduct their
social life within respectable parameters is not open to somebody else
passing judgement.

 There is nothing wrong with meeting online. I as well have met some very good friends of the internet. It is no different than answering an add in the local paper in years gone by. It is just embracing the technology we have now. There is always caution needed but in chatting with someone you can get to know a little about them and what they are like. It is typical that when the media put there slant on it then it is always so bad. I bet if you look into there backgrounds then things will surface that say who are you to cast dispersions on how others lead their lives.

 I do meet people online and have for a while. I also think its perfectly normal and the statistics of people who have and still are meeting others online speak for themselves, upwards of 45% if I remember ? It hasnt always gone to plan nor have all meets had fairy tale endings but the same can be said for all first time encounters, no matter where first contact was made.
I reckon the "debasing and disrespecting" statement about women is a bit harsh, totally archaic and prob said by someone with little or no proper knowledge of the online scene and its workings !
I can recognise the dangers associated with it but not any stigma attached and as long as youre safe and use your common sense it offers you the greatest scope there is for finding someone.
Great post !
