The DU Lounge
Related: Culture Forums, Support ForumsLadies of DU, hold on to your panties: Here is Julian Assange's creepy online-dating profile.
This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by NH Ethylene (a host of the The DU Lounge forum).
No education listed, no job, no income. What kind of woman could possibly resist such a man?
The self-summary:
He doesn't know what kind of relationship he is looking for.
And smart, strong, spunky women will defintely be interested in online-dating a jobless weirdo. (As opposed to, say, somebody who is equally smart, has style, comes across as caring and nice, and is the right mixture of a provider with exciting-yet-relatable interests.)
Also, he's looking for a woman from a politically unstable country???
This guy is definitely looking for some exotic booty, for some woman that only exists in his mind and that no real woman will ever live up to.
What he's doing with his life: He's all over the place and has no steady job.
And boasting about your presence is not pretentious at all.
What he could never do without? Sounding like a pseudo-profound pseudo-intellectual.
He spends a lot of his time: Not being there for you and weird hobbies that are all over the place.
EDIT: Wait... He has a formal background in 4 DIFFERENT FIELDS OF SCIENCE, yet he doesn't list any of this under "Education"...
Asian teengirl stalkers... If true, this guy is a weirdo. If false, this guy is a grade-A creepy sleaze.
You should message him if you are non-conformist who likes being told that you are the wrong kind of non-conformist.
"Do not write me if you are timid."
Translation: "Nobody knows what I'll do next."
In summary:
Write him if you are the improbably specific woman from his imagination and if you are okay with him not being there for you even if you were that woman.

I seek fodder for the Assange Mill.
Breed for me and I will show up occasionally and tell you whether or not you are doing a good job.

(6,113 posts)Yes, Assange is a cocky AH, but some of the criticisms are themselves revealing.
The first comment mirrors the sterotype of women looking for a meal ticket. Dating for dinner in its mildest form. So much one could criticize about him, and this is the first thing.
I have been on and off dating sites for some years and would never answer those questions in a public profile.

One parent did all that while the other did not. Guess which parent was reunited with the child and which one lost all visitation rights an is now sitting in state prison?
