How detailed do you get in your dating app profile?

In this episode of Do As We Say, Not As They Did, Dr. Liz Powell and Harris O'Malley kick things off with a look at r/AskWomenNoCensor, where a man asks women what they want. To no one's surprise, men were quick to jump in with their opinions. Harris and Dr. Liz discuss the merits of listening to the people you want to date (because, surprise, surprise, there is no female hivemind), personalizing your dating profile, and showing a genuine interest in people.

Highlights of the episode:

• An impromptu cooking lesson (inspired by a chicken breast & Crystal Light smoothie 🤢)

• A rant about AI dating profiles

• A loving reminder to be quirky, weird, and interesting

Get out a pen and paper and get ready to take notes. Dr. Liz and Harris are going to help you make sure your dating profile is ready to reel in people who are truly interested in you.
