A female reader responds to Match.com article criticizing female Match.com users

Sirs,

You've been single too long and don't know a thing about women or you are dating the wrong ones. Please, get some help. An investment in therapy can be a good thing. And this match.com is lame. It's for people too shy or too stupid to date and this is coming from a woman. You are lucky I am taking some time out to help you.

Sincerely,

Cat

...And a male reader responds to the same article

Sirs,

I found your match.com articles absolutely hilarious. I subscribed for a short time, and recently thought about giving it another go. However, after reading your articles, I may just go back to the old fashioned way, i.e., sitting around waiting for good luck.

Actually, something funny happened last night. I put in a new profile, and got a prompt email back, telling me to resubmit the profile in English. This seemed very funny, odd, and frustrating—sort of a microcosm of the whole site. I also tried eHarmony, which you recommended in a tongue in cheek way, but cannot use the javascript controls, since I am blind. (I use a screen-reader.)

The blind have to put up with shit like this. We can't even use a dating site. Hah. Anyway, I just wanted to compliment you on the article. It made me feel better for some reason.

Sincerely,

Austin from Philadelphia

Response to article about immigrants living in McGonigle Canyon

Sirs,

Planted condoms and he calls himself a documentary maker.  Prostitution is rampant in that canyon and the girls are most likely sex slaves brought in by pimps or wranglers. I’ll send you video.
