If you think your online dating experience should be as glossy and exclusive as the velvet ropes of a celebrity-laden hangout or pages of Vogue magazine then get thee to BeautifulPeople.com.
BeautifulPeople.com is a dating site for all of you who get queasy double-clicking through the reams of average-looking folks on normal sites.

Too lazy to leave the house? A new dating site assigns you a virtual body that does all the work.
If traditional online dating sites like Match.com and OKCupid are too detached and cold—what with their prude winks and snoozy, nice-to-meet-you messages—you may be in luck. Why not give adult virtual dating a try? Online Dating For Real Geeks Only

Men dating online don't mind a few extra pounds, but Ashley Dupre thinks you're a hypocrite.
Good news, bad news, non-news time.
First, the good news/bad news. A survey by dating site Date.com stated that 90 percent of women polled felt that men couldn't see past women being a little heavy. But the dudes surveyed overwhelmingly thought bigger can be beautiful—85 percent appreciated a bit of something to grab onto. Roughly 54 percent of the husky-hunters felt that curvier gals were better in bed. Echoing decades of locker room sentiment, 80 percent of the questioned men felt that larger women would be more appreciative of attention and generally less bee-otch-y than their svelte … Read More
Ron Paul, the libertarian politician from Texas, inspires an online dating site. Is this a trend?
Given the plethora of niche dating sites out there, coming across one expressly for fans of politician Ron Paul should not have been a surprise.
Likewise, Ron Paul is already so many different things: retired obstetrician, libertarian, former Republican presidential hopeful, that reading his name in connection with a dating site should not cause a batted eye—but of course it does.
Unlike Obamadatingsite.com, which features nary an ode to the Prez beyond his namesake, RonPaulSingles.com caters to fans of the Texan Congressman. At the time of this post, there were currently 113 members registered on the … Read More
SeekingArrangements.com wants to put gold diggers and sugar daddies together.
By now you're probably familiar with the idea that there exists a special kinship between rich men and attractive women. In fact, there appears to be a preternatural attraction between wealthy, older fellows and jaunty, nubile broads.
This weekend's New York Times Magazine explores the interweb destination SeekingArrangement.com. The site's raisin d-tree (it's Latin, or so I heard through the grapevine) is to provide a safe place for PYTs* to shake their little behinds for the moneyed menfolk (per the Times article, one quarter of the people on the site are trolling for dudes and about … Read More

Greatboyfriends.com lets friends or family members create your online dating profile.

eHarmony settles case out of court; agrees to launch gay-friendly dating service.
Conservative dating site eHarmony will launch an offshoot dating service catered to gays called Compatible Partners, the company announced today.
According to the settlement of a New Jersey discrimination lawsuit, the site must launch by March 31 of next year and be marketed in gay and lesbian media outlets. In addition to a large dose of pride from gay supporters, the man who filed the suit, Eric Mckinley, will receive $5,000 in damages. He filed a formal discrimination complaint against the site in 2005; a similar case against the company is underway in California. Whether or not the New Jersey … Read More
CasualKiss.com review: an online dating site with an attitude.
Singles feeling Manic-Depressant Blue (or Gross Brown, for that matter) will likely feel uplifted logging in to CasualKiss.com, a quirky online dating site and community with blogs, webcams, and, to quote the Canadian mind behind the madness, "other crap." Relaunched in 2003, Casual Kiss takes the cake for design: users can customize the background color of the site ("Manic Depressant Blue" and "Gross Brown" are two of them; Love Buzz settled for "Imasculine Purple").
The clever tone of the site spills over the design elements, evidenced in each profile, which calls for longitude and latitude (instead of height and build) and … Read More
