At the end of the day people aren’t going to change what they like. If someone rejects you over something superficial then they aren’t worth your time anyways, you wouldn’t rather someone fake attraction to you that’s what worse I promise.

As far as things like body count is concerned that’s a valid issue however most people can simply lie about their body count. Claiming it to be higher or lower then it really is….

Besides online dating is full of clowns anyways most people genuinely looking for something don’t make it long there. It’s ego fluffing and supply for narcissists. It’s people that can’t get anyone I. Real life. It’s people who just want to hook up.

I don't use dating sites, and never will, but it seems like it would make sense to have filters for any major physical characteristic.

If you were to see someone in public, you would, at the very least, immediately know how tall someone is, how much they weigh, their approximate ethnicity, their hair color, etc, anyway.

All of that information would be easily discernible, and help you to decide whether to approach, or not, so I don't see any reason not to include it on the site.

Non-physical features, such as children, income, etc, wouldn't be available without speaking to that person, and getting to know them, so I don't see any reason to include filters for those.

I think the whole setup of dating apps is dumb.. You are judging people on shallow things like how they look and how much they make without giving them a chance on important things like how they behave and if they are a good person or not. I will never use a dating site because it is much easier to have someone actually meet and like you in person then you ever would on a shitty app. On apps I usually get over looked often or dudes just want a hookup even if you put looking for a serious relationship but IRL I have actually good looking guys who show interest so why bother with stupid filters, when you might filter out your soulmate.

I think it's fine. Realistically, people have preferences and would have rejected those people that are being filtered out anyway. Saves time for everyone involved if nothing else.

[DishLady]

I'm against the sites themselves. They're all bs.

[TheSpaceGnome]

For, but also hobbies, interests, goals, whether they have or want kids or not, preferred pets, favorite tv and movies and games, if they smoke, drink, or do other drugs or not, their eduation level and IQ, their dream career, their preferred architectures, their tempurature and humidity preferences, etc.

The last 3 are important

Race filter to avoid race mixing

Single parent filter to avoid being with a man who is far more likely to be a criminal

Body count filter to avoid being with a slut

I have yet to discover a woman on these websites who does not add a little fiction to her 'profile'.

Men perhaps do the same (I would not know because I don't look them up).

[WhitneySnow]

Body count is easy to lie about, so who cares? As for the rest, I’m neutral. I can see good arguments on both sides.

[TheSpaceGnome]

initially it is, but i'd find out if she was lying a few years before she got in my pants.

[Anonymous]

I don't care. It's been my experience that women just look at your pics and don't read your profile anyhow. So I don't think it really matters. Race is fairly obvious. Most other stuff they can just ghost you later if you don't line up with them.

I would guess that most "against" voters are those who have something to hide.

[Ariesman81]

For... how cruel would it be to fall in love with a fatty?

[DannyUk2017]

Against.. But as Already happening, then i guess is same as we try to "fight a windmill" 🤷‍♂️

[strateguy632]

Same as age preference yes.

[Anonymous]

People have preferences, you can't have dating sites without them.

[WonderingManII]

Yeah I'm ok with them.

[NathanDavis]

I am not insecure AF...
