The amount of Jellymad in this thread is unbearable
It turns out that shallow people prefer to date attractive people, so a website that is so forward about it's goals in facilitating this is no big deal.
We can sit here and circlejerk all we want stereotyping them and going for their intellects/personality or even definition of attractiveness, despite there being all kinds of attractive people. But this is simply a natural thing, albeit done online and being blunt about it: attractive people date attractive people because they can. Why would it be any other way.
Except like someone noticed, those aren't even "beautiful" people. It's because the standard of beauty is a thinned-down Skeletor without emotions. I think I've seen at least a hundred of women that look pretty, but were so God damn thin I wouldn't touch them out of fear of breaking them in half.
Also, bear in mind that there are beautiful people out there who are nicer and more intelligent than you, and your obvious jealousy and almost gang like mentality on this makes you seem just as despicable as you perceive them. Your definition of "attractive people" seems to be based on Jersey Shore and nothing else.
Beautiful AND smart people don't need a website to tell them they're beautiful, and they should be smart enough to find dates without being pretty.
But if you like the idea of shallow plastic surgery addicts dating and making more shallow appearance-centric spoiled brats, go ahead, can't stop ya.
Thank you for proving my point and responding with a stereotype filled rant and veiled ad hominem instead of a well thought out argument.
It doesn't make you shallow to find beautiful people attractive and want to date them, it makes you human. If you date people with absolutely zero thought to their aesthetics, then power to you my friend, but the rest of us unenlightened masses are yet to obtain that level of zen, and physical attraction plays a part AS WELL AS (not instead of) spiritual connection.
And you just insulted me with sarcasm.
Let me guess - you are a member of this website and you got mad (see, I can use hip meme responses too). Or are incredibly insecure about yourself.
Finding beautiful people to date with them is not shallow. Making websites and elite clubs where "You must be this purrty to join!" is basically the aesthetic equivalent of... elite clubs for rich people, who talk to other rich people for no other reason than because they're rich too. On the other hand, if you refuse to date someone only because they aren't a part of a society of egocentric egomaniacs, then it is being shallow, assuming that being less than perfect = has no personality.
That's just as bad as judging people by how wealthy they are. Even worse, since you can't "work" on being pretty, you are born this way or not. "This peasant woman, you love her? BUT SHE'S A PEASANT, AND PROBABLY IRISH TOO! Her father has no hats, and thus your son with her would wear no hats! She's not worth your affection! You must marry this beautiful, but empty as an eggshell wench from a high-class family!"
I thought people stopped creating and existing in such societies decades ago. Unless your idea of a "dating site" is "site where you look for cheap and easy sex", but that kiiiinda seems dull. All that effort just to score some one-nighters with empty babes.
Don't forget, beauty is temporary. In 10 years tops, that extra-hot babe you hooked up with and had kids with is going to rot. So are you. In 20 years, 30, 40, even more. All you'll have left with are spoiled kids raised on the idea that beauty is everything, and a brain-dead wife who spent too much time perfecting her looks instead of developing personality.
Besides, how can you even tell if a potentially witty, sophisticated and charming girl is worth dating, if you crossed her off because SOMEONE ELSE'S SUBJECTIVE IDEA (admin? beauty-checker? dunno how that site works) didn't deem her perfect enough on the outside.
