One thing that's been on my mind for the longest is that I wish internet dating/personals sites were more specific - along the lines of eHarmony (which does't accept queers, btw).

Today I subscribed to Yahoo! Personals, and while perusing the 'eligibles', noticed that most of the women they match me up with are very feminine-looking. Butches are a scarcity on these sites - one has to look long and hard to find someone that 'remotely' sounds like they're butch.

My gripe is that they should be more tailored so one can convey exactly what one is looking for. It seems a given, but duh...no, seems they don't think there's a problem. If you're a woman, well ANY person born with a vagina is a prospective match. Well, perhaps that's true in some circles, and that's fine - I'm not making judgements here. But, golly, gee-wiz, all they care about is making money - not so much so in matching compatibles...

Ok, maybe this is the wrong thread for this - the 'rant' thread perhaps? Anyway, I just wanted to put this out and see if there are others who feel the same way. It's been my hope that maybe the Planet could start a dating service for our community. We, most of us, I'm sure know what we want/desire/need in a relationship. I would think that would be the next - admins, what say you? I'm sure most of us would be happy to pay a reasonable subs fee for this service. But I'm speaking for myself, obviously. I'm wondering how many others would be in favor of such a service, tailored along the lines of eHarmony? Let your voices/opinions be heard - whether nay, or yay.
