"Ugly" People Booted Off Dating Site

[Alucard788]

A website for narcissistic assholes...

I am disappoint.

I feel quite the opposite. Sure, it is appalling that there is actually a market for such a thing, but if someone is actually so openly shallow as to want to choose their partner based entirely on appearance, then by God let them have their cake and eat it. So that way in about 50 or 60 years when they are old, saggy, wrinkled, and alone the source of their regret will be all the more clear to them.

Now that is a beautiful reply....and the truth as well.

Actually this site may be more of a service to humanity than we thought. Just herd all the shallow folks into one end of the room so we can all date in piece.

I dunno, this site provides a useful service: Anyone who signs up for it isn't worth dating.

website called beautifulpeople.com kicked off people who were considered ugly...

Nope dont see anything wrong with that.

I find it hilarious in a british-humour kind of way, and for that i'm sorry.

It seems kind of sketchy to me because beauty lies the eye of the beholder so I'm currently checking if I qualify for this website. I don't consider myself beautiful, handsome yeah beautiful no we'll see what they think.

Woah, the owner of the site is actually serious about it? I though he set it up as a joke. I mean, when you look at the rules, the only people allowed on that site is essentially Pamela Anderson lookalikes.

Seriously all they are accomplishing by this is denying people their potential happiness and future, whilst simultaneously lowering there confidence even more...

MFW Greg hodge looks like a colossal douche, who desperately needs his teeth kicked in. Seriously women, this is what you want? a guy desperately trying to be prettier than you, with more hair product than an Italian salon? I sure as hell hope we are not invaded by aliens or anything, because these pansies are certainly not saving the human race. They might chip a nail.

To me, beauty is not just in your appearance. It is also in your attitude and how you treat other people.

I recall something like this happened before on this very site. After new years, they kicked off 3,000 people if they looked like they gained weight over the holidays. I think this site is pretty much concentrated Narcissism.

Okay this I really don't give a toss about. Their website, their stupid views, their stupid right to defend it non-violently. Lets move on now.

If I could quote something I saw from another post

After you read this, go to a mirror and look at yourself. You are an amazingly functional, highly evolved piece of biological machinery, and you are unique and beautiful. Everyone else is, too, but that doesn't make you worse off, except possibly in purely practical terms.

Also, smile at people more often. You'll be surprising how much better you and they will feel and how much easier it makes your day.

I think it works with this subject

When the website is called "Beautifulpeople.com" I'm actually not surprised. Some people are naturally better looking then others, that's how life works unfortunately. If people can't handle the criticism that people don't think they are good looking, don't post pictures on the internet, sorry to be so blunt but it's simple as that.

That and lets face it, the guy who created this site is clearly some kind of narcissistic douche who thinks he's from superior race or something

Actually, in the one interview I read about this site a few months ago on Nerve, the creator was asked if he would put himself on the site and he said he didn't consider himself nearly attractive enough.

OT: I really don't see the problem. I'm ugly and I've learned to live with that. If there are people shallow enough that they only care about whether the other person's attractive, why not take them out of the general dating pool?

Besides, the site is specifically advertised as being for attractive people. It wouldn't really make sense if they didn't enforce that rule. Sure, it's kind of a dickish idea, but I don't see why that means we need to throw a hissy-fit over it. Clearly the guy running the site is making a living off of providing a service that enough people want. Isn't that how the market is supposed to work?

"More than 30,000 people have been banned from a dating website which says it's exclusively limited to beautiful users."

Greg Hodge, the site's managing director, said: "We got suspicious when tens of thousands of new members were accepted, many of whom were no oil painting.

"We responded immediately, repairing the damage from the Shrek virus and putting every new member [to the vote].

"We have sincere regret for the unfortunate people who were wrongly admitted to the site and who believed, albeit for a short while, that they were beautiful," he added.

What the hell Internet?! Everyone is beautiful, they don't need you telling them whether they are or not.
