Readers, commenters, subscribers, moderators, lend me your ears!

This sub is a year old this month and has passed 10,000 subscribers right around a week ago. Congratulations, and thanks, to u/kevin32 on his vision for some fun and learning.

We are here to entertain and educate. We aim to make you laugh a little at people who richly deserve to be laughed at. We shine a light on the ridiculousness that is the modern woman's online dating profile. We illuminate the silliness of the modern woman's wail, "Where Have All The Good Men Gone? Where Did The Good Men Go? How come I can't get a good (read: hot, sexy, rich, badass) man to marry me? Why do men just want to have sex with me and leave me?" And we laugh at the funny, because it's great comedy.

But we hope you learn a few things here too. We hope that by showing you the worst of the worst, you'll avoid the trainwrecks and dumpster fires. We hope you'll learn what's really being said (and not said) in these profiles. We hope you'll be able to see not only what these women say in their profiles and plaintive articles bemoaning the state of modern dating and sexual relationships; but also why they're saying it.

And unfortunately for society but fortunately for WAATGM, the material just keeps on coming. We don't dream up any of this. We don't make it up and we don't embellish it. We don't try to make silk purses; we simply present the sow's ears in all their ingloriousness.

To our detractors: All we can say is that this subreddit wouldn't exist if folks like you weren't cranking out the material to support it. We don't wish ill upon you; we just think it's funny. And a little tragic. But more funny.

To everyone else: we hope you enjoy yourselves and learn something. And we thank you for finding the articles and profiles, for commenting, and for learning about today's entitled, demanding, unreasonable, modern woman. Here's to another year of learning is fun!
