Dontdatehimgirl.com

DontDateHimGirl.com is a global online public forum where women can anonymously discuss and share their bad dating experiences with the world. The website, inspired by a conversation between close friends, is designed to give women a free online method to find out if the man they're dating is a cheater.[1] Membership to the site is offered to anyone with a functioning email address; the website passively accepts postings from members and publishes them without review. As of September 2006, the site listed profiles of over 15,000 men and receives up to a quarter of a million hits a day. The site is owned by Tasha Joseph; a companion site, DontDateHerMan.com is planned for the future.[2]

The website's terms of use include clauses that inform users of the service they are solely responsible for their posts and they are forbidden to post inaccurate or defamatory information.[3] Members are able to anonymously post the name, photograph and a brief profile of a man they have dated using the link "Add a Post". Tasha has called the site a "dating credit report" for women as there are postings authored by women who've had good dating experiences with a man and those women who say they have not had a good experience. Website users interviewed for an article in the New York Times found the website helpful and a welcome way to double-check the truthfulness of online dating profiles. [2]

When interviewed, Tasha has stated that the site does not attempt to contact any of the men who are discussed on the site and that she feels no responsibility to ensure the veracity of the sites content. [4] Men can atuomatically rebut postings made about them by logging on to the site and creating a username to post their comments.
