They could be lying about their jobs. It's not unheard of.

 

[I'm Old Greg]

it could also be the state i'm in, i noticed the further away the nicer and more attractive the girls were...

 

[E-Man]

the Funny thing though about that...theirs a lot of actors and people in the entertainment industry on dating sites...those people are like talking to a wall...there so self absorbed and out for themselves..

They're probably low rent actors that are breaking into the entertainment business. Or they're like Cuyan said, and they're lying about their jobs. I have a friend who lies like that all the time with women, and I've certainly met my share of "models" who never really modeled or acted in anything.

 

[Cuyan]

I tell women I'm Mandalorian and they think I'm exotic.

Nice one.

I can understand personal preference..but Come On when these people are unattractive, lousy personalities, bad teeth...they really have no reason to be that close minded by who they give a chance to..

Check out those dating sites there really just lousy people on there....its full of people who aren't with someone for a reason..

I'm not sure you understand personal preference, when in this very post you neglect the subjectivity of attractiveness and personality.

This is an actual dating website that has a strict "no uglies" allowed. Its kinda mean...kinda funny...and kinda interesting all at the same time. Im really tempted to try and get an account (hopefully I won't be deemed too 'ugly') if its free just to see how the people look like. But yeah...wow

as a private entity, they have the right to do so

 

[Lunar_Wolf]

At least the site is honest.

No one is saying that they don't. We're just pointing out how shallow and elitist that is.

 

[BlackLantern]

a lot of the world is shallow, I think some of us don't want to believe that but it is...why do bars hire hot girl bartenders? have you ever seen a fat person in one of those Bally or 24 HR gym commercials?

 

[katie_girl09]

The gym commercials make sense. Are you really gonna believe that this gym makes you fit if an obese person is advertising it? Of course our society is shallow. I don't think there are many people out there who think otherwise. But a dating site that glorifies that...?

 

[BlackLantern]

why not? apparently it has enough people to keep going and they get a ton of submissions for 'membership'

I might not personally agree with it, but I can see where a site like that would have advantages

 

[katie_girl09]

It's size doesn't make it any less shallow. In fact, it scares me that there are that many unabashedly elitist people out there.

Sure it might have its upside from that point of view (people being good-looking) but I can see a downside as well. The people on such a site are far more likely to be conceited. Just like bgates87 said, a site like this isn't just gonna filter out "uglies", but also genuine "hotties" who are humble/modest about their looks.

 

[Lunar_Wolf]

I'm sure there are sites for chubby chasers too.
Some people have high expectations.

 

[BlackLantern]

I believe the way it works is that when a "new member" applies, the other members are asked to vote and if the vote is above a certain percentage, then they can be a member

Elitist, sure, but at the end of the day, is it really changing the course of the world or genuinely hurting someone...no

 

[Lunar_Wolf]

The strange thing I find about the site is, it's for beautiful people...Do beautiful people find it that hard to find a date outside the internet? Maybe I'm having a one track mind. Do really attractive people suffer from confidence problems, but at the same time won't lower they're standards?

I would say some do, everyone has hangups.....a lot of guys, especially these days, are easily intimidated by very attractive women, so they might act different or not talk to them the same way the would talk to an average girl....some people aren't taken seriously because they are attractive (I've done this myself at work, so guilty on that)

in short, everyone has their own **** to deal with when it comes to dating

Is it any less shallow if someone goes to a site because they're only interested in fat people? Whatever works.

 

[terry78]

Like Seinfeld said, 5% of people are attractive, the other 95% of the population is undateable.

everyones different but for some yeah...

I notice a lot of very pretty girls like to date unattractive guys, but they like there scumbag personality or room absorbing personalities...
It makes the pretty girls feel more confident about themselves. Cause I think a lot of pretty girls are very insecure.

I notice when I go out I get ignore by girls, my friends are mostly overweight, and aren't that polite but the girls talk to them with out a care in the world and feel comfortable. I keep myself well put together and i'm in good shape...its like girls become so insecure and have to either be rude or ignore me first as if it were protection towards themselves...which is insanity.
Girls are the least honest people I know...****s on the other hand well there honest about what they want which is a start.

I'm not sure you understand personal preference, when in this very post you neglect the subjectivity of attractiveness and personality.

I do understand personal preference but those girls need to lower there own standards because there aiming for a type that has little to no interest in them, which is why they are on a dating site and why no one wants to be with them.

They're probably low rent actors that are breaking into the entertainment business. Or they're like Cuyan said, and they're lying about their jobs. I have a friend who lies like that all the time with women, and I've certainly met my share of "models" who never really modeled or acted in anything.

Oh yeah completely probably the scum of the barrel the ones who will drop to there knees for a part

I think a lot of it has to do with attention and the clique mindset that people have. They want people to look at them in their beautiful club, so they sign up to be part of what they feel is elite.

 

[katie_girl09]

No. And no one is saying that it will. But that doesn't make it any less shallow and elitist. And that's all anyone's really saying.

 

[Cuyan]

People have been shallow since the beginning of time, how is this a new revelation?

 

[The Lizard]

I find the beautiful people dating site less offensive than the various "sugar daddy" sites like this one: http://www.sugardaddyforme.com/index.php?mode=home

 

[Harry_Lime02]

I think we should have the same standard on this forum too.
