More than a few readers have made the comment that I'm hard on women, that they're constantly the targets of my dating entries. I can absolutely see where one may draw that conclusion. I've poked fun at women's dating profiles, the loony behavior of ones I've dated, and been particularly hard on certain women.
In reality, I'm equally tough on everyone. I call it as I see it, with very few exceptions, even raking myself over the coals, when appropriate. And trust me, I love women. In fact, I've learned more about how to truly love someone over the past seven years, than in my way too many years prior. However, by its very nature, my blog will only include my experiences with women. The reason is very simple.
I don't date men.
Furthermore, as bloggers, we tend to write about experiences that have either hurt us, confounded us, or truly shaped us. For me, it's a means to gain a better understanding of what transpired or exorcise it altogether. 'I had a nice date with a lovely woman and plan to see her again' doesn't typically require either of those actions.
Back to the topic at hand.
I don't date men.
For that reason, I don't read men's dating profiles, so I don't see the garbage they put on them. Despite women recounting the crap that men write, no man's profile will ever appear in the DPOW.
Because I don't date men.
It would also follow then, that I have no experiences in dating men. And I only write about things I'm intimately familiar with. From what I've read and been told by others, men are just as screwy, when it comes to dating. Hell, from what I know, I'd consider that to be somewhat of a given. But I can't say for certain, because...
I don't date men.
So, I apologize if it sometimes seems that I'm brutal, when it comes to the fairer sex. You'll have to trust that I don't go around seeking opportunities to bash women. But again, no experience with anything else, because...I think you get it.

Semi-Annual Dating Profile of the Week - December, 2017
Yes, what was once a weekly endeavor declined to monthly frequency, then quarterly, and now semiannual. The truth is garbage profiles all run together after reading the same crap for the 101st time, they lose impact. However, once in a while, a profile jumps out as truly dreadful, such as the one below.
As usual, I've copied the entire profile, so readers can completely soak in the lunacy. While longer than most of my previous examples, this is one that does keep on giving. It comes from Emptynester, a 44 year old woman from Bucyrus, KS. She's a bubbly, blond, type, who clearly spends her free time fearing carbs. Empty not only seeks someone who likely doesn't exist, but takes 'here's what I don't want' to a new level of greatness.
I'm currently living in Columbia, Mo. My daughter is now a junior in college, so I able (and ready) to relocate if I met the right person.
I've had two long-term relationships with two very great men. I'm three years out of my last relationship, and I'm ready to find another great partner.
I will openly admit that I don't enjoy this experience too much, so in an attempt to save time/energy, please understand that I am at a point in my life that I would prefer to not deal with the demands of young children. Also, physical fitness is a VERY important part of my life and consumes a great deal of my time; I am also an active yogi and practice daily meditation...these are my passions. It is an ABSOLUTE REQUIREMENT that whomever I date also desires to live aligned w these passions. If you do not, please respect my time. I apologize if that comes across as rude, but I'm here looking for a partner, not friends or compliments.
ADDENDUM: I have encountered a lot of "John 14:6 Christians" lately. For the record, I am an extremely spiritual person: I believe in a Higher Power, and I believe there are MANY paths that lead to God. I do not discriminate on a person's path unless "that path" forces you to be so ridged that you believe "your way" is "the only way". If you believe Jesus Christ is the one and only Son of God, we most definitely are not a Match: DEAL BREAKER. I'm not here to debate religious beliefs. 🙄
ADDENDUM II: I'm not a fan of facial hair, and it would take a lot for me to get beyond it: too scratchy. 😉
If we share these similar interests/beliefs, I look forward to hear from you; if we don't, I wish you the best in your search!
Initially, I struggled to properly describe all the ways this woman is just plain batty, but quickly realized there's no need. She does it all by herself.
Be careful out there, my single friends.
