... I randomly came across a website with the motto "go on dates with people who look like what you look like."

Is that really shallow if you aren't hot?

Well, that'll solve the problem of people putting up pictures that don't look anything like themselves(now)

So what? People always take looks into account, men and women. Every dating website has photos as the cornerstone. All pay sites require subscriptions before you can look at photos. What's the problem here? I've seen many a profile where it sounds great and then I see the photo and I'm like "yeesh ...nah" and I'm sure women have done the same to my profile. That's called life. We're not blind.

While ideally I say no, it wouldn't be. However, I see this as being the site the anti-fatties and "pretty people" flock to so they can weed out all of the 'lesser' prospects.

I came across this site because I did a google for a username so I could reference a profile I know that is out there with the typical cliches as discussed in the thread of what is said and what it really means. This particular username is a former classmate of mine and considered a "pretty" boy; the jock in school with the looks to go with it. I am referencing his profile because he says he wants XYZ in a girlfriend and "is tired of" getting ABC. But, then goes on stating how he wants characteristics of an ABC type girl. (Think: Jersey Shore kind of girl). And then goes on with his profile about how he's tired of meeting the same type over and over again and wants something new, fresh and different.....

And, I found he now has an alternate profile on the site I referenced. So, obviously, he wants a girl that is not like the typical girl he attracts, but he is only willing to look at girls that look like the typical girl he attracts. Good luck, my friend. Good luck.

I don't think I want to date a guy who looks like me.

Or a woman. I would feel like I was dating my sister!

I don't think I'd be attracted to a female who looks like me. I'd like to avoid stubble burns.
