Beautiful People

by David Evans on August 3, 2005   in Dating Sites

Beautiful People is a UK-based site that charges $10 signup fee and $20 per month to join.

BeautifulPeople.net is an online community whose purpose is to create relationships, both private and professional, between people who because of their attractive appearance and personal qualities stand out from the majority.

Like exclusive Hot-or-Not. I understand the value of using beauty and money as a filter, but using existing membebs to select new members? Seems like MTV likes the service, for whatever that’s worth.

With all the adult dating, pr0n and other ways to look at sexy people on the internet, BeautifulPeople has it’s work cut out. I would imagine it will make more money off it’s live events and sponsorships than registration fees.

I’ll admit I look at a picture before I’ll read a profile. The pitfalls I see with a site like BeautifulPeople.com are:

1. Have you ever noticed that a person who you thought was average looking can become more handsome or more beautiful the more you get to know them? And someone you thought was beautiful or handsome when you met them may become more plain looking the more you get to know them?

2. They value physical beauty first, which can be a superficial way to look at the world and at people.

3. Sometimes our perfect match isn’t who we pictured in our mind. A friend was dating all these rugged handsome guys and it was never working out. She dated the complete opposite and found her match.

In summary – by being so ‘exclusive’ they may actually be preventing themselves from finding their ideal match.

Just watch an episode of “Big Brother” on CBS and you’ll see beautiful people who don’t have to work very hard to be completely boring…

One good example of ‘looks not being anything’

The most boring people I met through online dating were also the best looking. I don’t know the reason behind that but it seems they didn’t have to work very hard at forming connections — so that part of their brain was wayyyy under-developed.
