An online dating site for Ayn Rand followers.

It actually makes more sense to me for online dating sites to be narrower and self-selecting. The real world works this way just by virtue of ones choices about where they spend time. Like I could see an online dating site for athletes or country music lovers or something of this nature because it sort of narrows the gap and doesn't feel so large and there are automatic dates involved - Dodger Game or the Waylon Jennings concert. This poses a problem, however, for online dating sites because I believe they actually feed on the perverse notion that there is someone out there for everyone (and you just haven't found them yet). This is not true. It is a coping mechanism. But obviously untrue from any sort of objective standpoint. You could demonstrate this by looking at any sort of different variables - the number of divorces, the fact that good looking people have a ton more dating options than ugly people - etc. But in feeding on this idea, people are inclined to go to the biggest sites to cast the widest net. or maybe not, I don't know.

Nevertheless, it strikes me as being a step in the right direction for online dating to be narrower.
