How do they know how fat or thin someone is?

And, I'm not surprised. I've seen other sites that only want "beautiful" people etc etc.

This is probably the most shallow website I've ever seen.

Not that I don't think it's crass, and pointless. People can lie, as Bini points out, and you can easily design a feature to let people filter based on weight so all this does is remove potential revenue. Unless of course they think this gimmick will outweigh that.

Oh, wait, where was I? Ah, yes. Are there non-shallow dating websites? admittedly my experience is minimal, but I just assume that was the nature of the beast. :)

No pun intended right?

Let's start one! www.uglyasbaboons.com! "Beautiful People Not Allowed!"

U.G.L.Y.

You ain't got no alibi!

You're ugly! Yay! You're ugly!

(Oh...by the way..Happy New Year everyone!)

That link didn't work. I don't know what it was to link to, but I would hope that we wouldn't make fun of people that perhaps don't fit into what we might find as attractive.

Although there may be too much me, I am pretty useful when cleaning needs to be done, a sandwich needs to be made, a boo-boo needs a bandaid and if you are young or old enough if it is in the right spot, lightly and lovingly kissed. Let's see a beautiful person pull that all off.

LOL - it wasn't intended to be a proper link Pam - I was only kidding. The joke I was making (perhaps not very funny really, but I try) is that "ugly" people should fight back by excluding these self-styled "beautiful people" from their own circles. We all know that *real* beauty is what's inside a person.

Makes me think of a version of Cinderella from one of my daughter's bedtime books. The king, queen and prince are discussing who to invite to the ball:

"We must invite all the pretty girls of the kingdom!" said the king.

"No," said the prince. "We must invite all girls whether they are pretty or not. For not all nice girls are pretty and not all pretty girls are nice!"

"Well said!" exclaimed the queen, who was not at all pretty herself!

Also if you could see me (I'm glad you can't!) you'd know I'm in no position to accuse anyone else of being a fatty!! New Year begins with a severe diet for me!

Surprisingly it wasn't. Man, my punny bone is one the fritz lately, I'm letting this slip out without noticing them.

This is probably the most shallow website I've ever seen. I understand they can hold their own standards..but I, for one, wouldn't want anything to do with a someone from this site.

Dating site for beautiful people expels 'fatties' after holiday weight gain - CNN.com

Inclusive for who? Never heard of this site from any single.

"Every year we see that some of our members from Western cultures eat and drink to excess over the holidays, and clearly their looks suffer," he said in a statement. "The U.S.A. has been grossly over-indulging since Thanksgiving. It's no wonder that so many members have been expelled from the network. We hope they will be back after shedding the festive pounds."

"Is it elitist? Yes

So what? I could gain 7.8lbs in a given day by drinking a gallon of water. You wonder what the world is looking for in civil marriage that seemed to fail shortly thereafter.

I cannot help but think of that old MADTV skit they used to run called lowered expectations. a dating matching service for the less than attractive/socially awkward folks of the world.

btw:

it makes me wonder if these people are so beautiful and are the "upper echelon" of the populace in eligiablity then why are they single? and why do they need an online service to find them dates?

I remember that.

The super beautiful have a harder time dating because people are intimidated by them and think they must be taken. The best thing for a guy to do when he sees a group of ladies is to ask the prettiest one to dance (assuming he's at a place where dancing is going on, Do it in the mall and he will look like a weirdo:D) or at least this is what i learned from Maxim (the male equivalent to Cosmo).

As superficial as it is i think there is some truth to it.

When my classmates and I had to choose a state to do a report on i got California because i was the only one who picked it. Everyone else wanted it but thought it was the oblivious choice so they all picked Florida.

Is that why I'm not asked out? I intimidate the men? Alrighty, I'll tone down my beauty for the men....

I don't think I'd want to date someone who thought so highly of themselves, they'd join that site. No amount of good looks can make up for that kind of arrogance and shallowness!

Exactly what I thought. There are also plenty of people that meet their so-called standards that are disgusted by their brash egos.

Or marrying anyone of the caliber of high maintenance. :)

EXACTLY!!

OK know it freaks some men on the site out but so needed to post it

Lol. Nothing beats the song I first heard in 1998, called big panty woman. I was in school and played it so many times, to much laughter. It's not very well known though. Click link below.

My point exactly in my OP.

YouTube - Big Panty Women

link doesn't work for me, Youtube error. Googleing it wasn't giving me the best result:o

(to clarify not a joke about the women but about the type of sites you get with that string of words)

The link worked for me but you didn't miss a thing. Funny, it says in the description of the video "Best Song Ever" but it's only had 21 views. lol
