Match.com and eHarmony are what people typically think of when online dating is mentioned. Yet, these sites don’t cater to the more bizarre or niche category of people who don’t fit this bland kind of dating. Whether it’s Singlesnet, PlentyofFish and the like it’s pretty much the same routine: take 1,000 pictures of yourself, choose two or three that stand out, write up a blurb on how awesome you are and you have at it! But what of the atypical markets? Are there homes for them? These ten sites are a pretty good indication that there is room for us all. Due to the subjective nature of people’s fetishes, this list is no specific order.
This site, dedicated to married/single folks seeking out “arrangements” with other married folks, sadly has (to date) 4,255,000 members. This site recently took off in America and was like a rash over popular radio station commercial breaks and contains the tagline: “Life is short. Have an affair!” The site GUARANTEES an affair if you sign up, although they do mention in their disclaimer that they are not personally held liable for personal injury or death that should happen to you if you use their services. Which, unfortunately, will be an unexpected guarantee as well. [Visit the site]
At a measly $2000 for a lifetime membership, this site boasts that it will find you a match based on PHYSICAL chemistry. Their CLIA/ASH-accredited lab analyzes your supplied DNA sample (immune system genes) to find that perfect someone, and then destroy it after they’re done with it. What are the benefits of DNA comparison?
* Chances are increased that you’ll love the natural body fragrance of your matches.
* You have a greater chance of a more satisfying sex life.
* Women tend to enjoy a higher rate of orgasms with their partners.
* Women have a much lower chance of cheating in their exclusive relationships.
* Couples tend to have higher rates of fertility.
* All other things being equal, couples have a greater chance of having healthier children with more robust immune systems.
You have a better than average chance at hooking up here for obvious reasons. Unfortunately, the site doesn’t list what these women’s offenses were to land them in prison, so you’re taking your chances. Surprisingly, if you get a chance to read the “What People are Saying About Us” page, the percentage is high for satisfied customers. Price-wise, it costs you a mere 3 dollars to obtain one address where you can converse via snail mail. The site even has an “Add to Cart” and “Checkout” button after you’re done shopping for your badass beauties! A huge plus is you can pretty much rely on the fact that they’re not going to cheat on you with your best friend. Or anyone else for that matter. [Visit the site]
If you happen to suffer from tinyophobia (the fear of little people), you might want to check this site out. It specifically caters to like-minded singles who are of a specific height, meaning TALL. Verbatim, their introduction is: “Welcome to the best, largest and most effective tall dating site in the world. This is the best place for looking for tall dating relationship or marriage. We bring together tall-dating minded singles from USA, UK, Canada, Australia, Europe and more. Here you could mingle with tall singles, tall beautiful women and tall handsome men.”
Other than meeting the height criteria, the site is standard fare with chat, forums, and the like. As an alternative there is a dating site for short people that can be found here. [Visit the site]
Are you schizophrenic? Do you suffer from paranoia? Do you play with your own waste with great delight? Well, thankfully a site has been created to match up people with histories of mental illness. Costing nothing to join with full access to all of its features, No Longer Lonely boasts it’s the only dating site of its kind. Now what could possibly go wrong here? And as an alternative, here’s a site for people suffering with an STD. Now if only they would combine these two. [Visit the site]
What couple argues about finances anymore? Here you can find that special someone who can debate whether Jean-Luc or James T. was the better captain, and then go snuggle under your Ewok/Death Star matching sheets. From the home page: “A 100% free online community and SciFi personals site for science fiction lovers, including but not limited to lovers of Star Trek and Star Wars.” Its tagline is: “Love long and Prosper!” Just remember to have your partner checked for Tribble infestation before becoming, *ahem*, intimate. [Visit the site]
Yes, online dating has been reduced to the shallowest end of the mudpuddle with this matchmaking service. The criteria to join is STRICT as they allow “beautiful people only.” And that doesn’t include inner beauty. They even include what they affectionately call the “Chimp Calculator” to test your unattractiveness level! Their tagline? “Online dating minus ugly people.” One can only imagine how much Photoshopping has been done to these profiles! [Visit the site]
For those of you who have been living on the moon as of late, the term “420 friendly” is slang for “I smoke weed.” Finally, the stoners have an online community where you can find someone you can share the munchies with. Strangely enough, the site’s Terms of Service page states: “The following is a partial list of the kind of Content that is illegal or prohibited on the Website. It includes Content that promotes information that you know is false, misleading or promotes illegal activities. It also states at the bottom of the landing page: ” 420dating.com does not advocate the use of any illegal substances.” And yet on the front page are photos of the latest “Featured Smokers” enjoying a nice healthy dose of hydroponics. Uhhhh, what? [Visit the site]
This site is for intrepid souls only! In a nutshell, you are not allowed to see any photos of your potential dates beforehand and the service will match you up according to where you live. At the time of this review, the website only boasted eight major U.S. cities, but there is an option to select your own location to see if they have a listing. There are three options to choose from: a solo date, a double date, or you don’t care. The novelty steps in when you next have the option of going out on a date that very same night! Next, you select the area in your chosen city you wish to go to, then sit back and wait for an e-mail confirmation that the date is scheduled. Not for the faint of heart! [Visit the site]
No, this isn’t a site for the aged and infirm wearing Depends. It’s the internet’s premiere FREE community for Adult Babies, Diaper Lovers, Big Kids, and fetishists galore who relish returning to a more peaceful time in their life: childhood. Apparently, these adult children grew up wearing plastic pants and “sissy clothes” as well. According to the site: “Adult Babies like to wear diapers, but also enjoy other babyish things. They may wear baby or sissy clothes such as Onesie-like snap-crotch T-shirts, rompers or play suits. They tend to like more colorful diaper covers and even frilly ruffled panty-style covers. Adult Babies may also enjoy drinking formula from baby bottles, or eating baby food. Generally they like to be treated totally like a baby during this play time, being changed, bathed, and even spanked by their partner who serves as their Mommy or Daddy.” There’s one out there for us all, eh? [Visit the site]

Another wow list!
August 11th, 2009 at 1:48 am
Number 9 and 4 slightly remind me of something that was named “The Joy Division”!
August 11th, 2009 at 1:51 am
LOL… Great list, needless to pointout my disappointment, loss for words at number 10… Sad to see that 4,255,000 people don’t value the sanctity of matrimony… Shame on the Ashley Madison agency for exploiting these people’s immorality! Just hope none of them have children! Sis(term used to express disgust)!!
August 11th, 2009 at 1:51 am
Cool list but judging by the chosen photo, someone doesn’t really think highly of stoners :p
August 11th, 2009 at 1:56 am
The 10th one just makes me sad. The others are… well, interesting studies in human behaviour ;x
August 11th, 2009 at 1:57 am
This list is cool! Well done!
August 11th, 2009 at 2:12 am
weird list,who wants to wear a diapers these people are crazy
August 11th, 2009 at 2:23 am
Great list! Very interesting- There truly is someone for everyone
August 11th, 2009 at 2:29 am
Ok, even I am astounded at number one! I thought that sort of thing only occurred on trashy porn sites.
August 11th, 2009 at 2:34 am
They say every 10 seconds the ‘Forgot Password?’ link is hit for #3.
August 11th, 2009 at 2:37 am
Why am I awake at 4:30 in the morning
August 11th, 2009 at 3:27 am
#’s 9 and 4 actually sound reasonable they’re like eugenics via the internet
August 11th, 2009 at 3:30 am
the most bizarre dating site i have ever seen ,one which men should put on their profile ((((((penis length)))))
do you believe it!!!!
All the fields with asterisk * are required fields
*penis length
August 11th, 2009 at 3:39 am
I was horrified the first time I heard the comercial for Ashley Madison on the radio. I guess most of that horror was coming from the fact that this was being advertised on a mainstream radio station, even though it was after 11 PM. I am in no way implying that I was surprised such a site existed; I figure there must be a good percentage of people who use Adult Friend Finder for the same purpose.
The difference, of course, lies in the audacity of creating a site solely for people looking for affairs… and seemingly relishing in it. As if people need more help in supporting their infidelity. It is a time bomb just waiting to explode, too. You know sooner or later someone is going to murder their cheating spouse and hold the website as culpable – regardless of their disclaimer. If I was a hitman would giving you a written disclaimer that you must agree to get me out of being charged for murder? I hope the operators of that site are enjoying their success now because I feel it isn’t going to last very long.
With that said, it is now time for me to go to that Women Behind Bars site so I can go find the future Mrs. tmxicon.
August 11th, 2009 at 3:57 am
HAHAHAHAHA!
August 11th, 2009 at 4:04 am
In reference to the Ashley Madison Agency: People have been making quick cast off each other’s misery for a very long time. It was only a matter of time before someone tried to make some money off adultery.
August 11th, 2009 at 4:11 am
Ha! I tried the Chimp Calculator, 20% Chimp.
The respond it gave when you tick all of the boxes was quite funny, are you reaaaally sure that it isn’t some kind of joke?
/Johan
August 11th, 2009 at 4:45 am
Hi,
The webstats for women behind bars is brilliant (on directed page Left Hand Side theres a ball with a squiggle line through it). 15 of the last 20 people who have visited the site have done so by clicking the link from listverse.
August 11th, 2009 at 4:53 am
Damn “Tall Friends!” I’m only freaking five foot two, and I’m a 15-year old male.
Anyway, these are just bizarre, although these relationships may work out because of things the two have in common with each other. Thrill is really a part of every relationship. So, visit this sites, sit back, and enjoy?
August 11th, 2009 at 4:55 am
Ya know. When I saw the topic to this list I actually thought it might be scarier than this. Personally I think crazy blind date could be kinda fun.
August 11th, 2009 at 4:56 am
I can just imagine the lengths damien_karras went to during his research. “Oh yes, mum/honey/(other). Just, um, checking the sports results!”
The List Universe boasts several pairs, mainly among the forum regulars. Gotta start a new forum: List Universe Lonely Hearts Forum. I can moderate but not participate.
August 11th, 2009 at 4:56 am
oh and I scored 10% Chimp.
August 11th, 2009 at 5:00 am
hint: to get 0% chimp, tick where it says
Do you have visible skin between your eye brows?
Have you been propositioned in the last 24 hours?
August 11th, 2009 at 5:44 am
Nice work bro.
Now if they come up with a Peach Skoal hookups, I will finally find the woman of my dreams. . . .
August 11th, 2009 at 5:51 am
I’ve never heard the term “420 friendly”. Since it says, “for those living on the moon as of late…” I take it that it’s a popular slang. I guess I’m not hip.
If I was single I would probably try crazy blind date.
August 11th, 2009 at 5:58 am
Way to go, damien_karras! These were hilarious! The Trek Passions sounds…interesting. pfft!
Yay for ugly people!
As for the chimp calculator…I would score a 0% without cheating.
August 11th, 2009 at 6:02 am
@astraya (23): Great idea! I was one of the “pairs”, briefly, and it was fun while it lasted…
@bucslim (26): One of my best friends is in a long time relationship with a woman who dips Kodiak regularly. And he can’t get enough of her!
August 11th, 2009 at 6:12 am
????? I reckon that the diaper fetishists should be included on the mental health dating website
August 11th, 2009 at 6:24 am
Okay, some of those are a bit odd but the closed mindedness in regards to No Longer Lonely astounds me. Its not a site for ax murderers or lobotomised people. It is a site for people who suffer from very real diseases. As someone who suffers from bipolar disorder, which is easily controlled through medication or in my case a regular sleep pattern, I know how hard it is for someone who has never experienced this kind of thing to understand especially when it comes to dating.
Sadly the author of this list, in his ignorance and stpidity, decided it is a horrible thing for people who have mental illness to look for love. I guess we should all be penned up labor camps?
Ignorant sack of sh$t.
August 11th, 2009 at 6:24 am
Finally! After all of these months on listverse I finally found a list to help my newly single status!
Thank you, Listverse. Although, there are a few I’ll stay away from…
August 11th, 2009 at 6:42 am
good job, monkey. I’ll stick with what I’m doing. Except maybe for the blind date one. That actually looks kind of fun. Not for soulmates…just for fun.
August 11th, 2009 at 6:44 am
@callie19 (33): To be honest, you were what inspired me to make this list. Glad you enjoyed it.
August 11th, 2009 at 6:51 am
I can’t believe you missed the one they launched here in the UK a couple of months ago which is a site where you have to have a penis of minimum 7 inches to be a member! Was in the London Paper a few weeks back, can’t remember what it was called though.
August 11th, 2009 at 7:01 am
Hmm do I sign up to the tall page or the beautiful page? Its so hard being this damn good.
August 11th, 2009 at 7:21 am
wow dread pirate bob, such animosity regarding a silly list. I don’t here the stoners or Trekers on here slinging insults, but then again the stoners probably got distracted half way through. Perhaps anger issues is what prevents certain people from meeting that special someone.
August 11th, 2009 at 7:25 am
I daresay, everyone will now be heading off to chimpcalc to see if they pass the threshold! Any of the other sites, and I have a feeling there will be a lack of admission.
August 11th, 2009 at 7:42 am
I think I’ll forward the links to the mental disorder dating site and the big baby site to my ex. Haha he deserves to find love too! :p
August 11th, 2009 at 7:42 am
@dread pirate bob (31):
I totally agree! I have a schizophrenic brother (regulated well with meds) who is very lonely but has no idea how to meet someone. He’s the sweetest guy you’ll ever meet but as he doesn’t leave the house much and has zero confidence in talking to strangers how’s he supposed to meet a woman? I might have a look at this site and see if he’d be interested.
August 11th, 2009 at 7:48 am
You mean there are enough people on this earth who wear diapers that a dating website is devoted to this exclusively? What a sad and sick world. The one on mental illness could actually be helpful to some people, lets just hope they don’t procreate. Natural selection at it’s best.
August 11th, 2009 at 8:05 am
@41. Awfully judgmental, no? Surely you or someone you have dated has an unusual kink.
August 11th, 2009 at 8:28 am
Wow, this list was very…hmm…how do i put this? Disturbing. Though, I think I’ll stick to men, thank you very much.
August 11th, 2009 at 8:31 am
Wow, 10 needs to be shut down. The creators of the site probably think, or rather constantly tell themselves, that their site is being used exclusively by “swinger” couples, but there are so many people out there who think having an affair would be exciting.-_- Hurrah for defiling the sanctity of not just marriage but relationships in general!
The rest of these sites, though, seem pretty normal. Everyone has a kink, and some are just more open and creative about theirs.
August 11th, 2009 at 8:45 am
The diapers one is probably stemmed from either having a completely spoiled childhood, or having no childhood whatsoever. Its for people who want to be cared for by a ‘mommy’ or ‘daddy’ who do everything for them, and give them the parental affection they probably missed when they were young. Its not as uncommon as you may think, but it is a little strange. But it makes more sense than some other fetishes that this site has showcased.
August 11th, 2009 at 9:10 am
WOW, what kind of asshole makes fun of the mentally ill? Whomever wrote this has problems him/herself.
August 11th, 2009 at 9:10 am
@ j reb (37)
The difference being that stoners and Trekkies get to choose their passion/obsession, and those with mental illness do not. As a recovered sufferer of mild OCD, I can vouch for how confusing and frustrating even a small degree of mental instability can be. I can only imagine how challenging it must be for a schizophrenic or bipolar person to meet and continue a relationship. I think his anger is absolutely justified.
It’s one thing to make fun of a person for their hobbies, and quite another to poke fun at actual illnesses. Would you think he was overreacting if they had been making fun of a site dedicated to helping amputees or quadripelegics find love? Why should mental handicaps be any different?
August 11th, 2009 at 9:14 am
1. – Freaks
August 11th, 2009 at 9:19 am
Whooo hoooooo I’m 40% chimp so they told me to go away roflmao.
(at least I’ve always got the wife to come home to…………….to change my dirty diaper).
And the crazy blind date…………….I always wear a gimp mask when I’m going on dates…………..which would explain why I don’t get another
August 11th, 2009 at 9:27 am
Oh….loving to wear diapers and have my girlfriend wear diapers isn’t normal? Oops..
August 11th, 2009 at 9:30 am
@Stevie C (48): Pffft, as if you don’t have your own secret freaky weird fetish. People are entitled to what gets them off, and if they can find other people that are into the same thing, more power to them. I hear ringtailroxy’s into S&M, (hot, I like a little spanking :p) and I’m sure some people think that’s weird too, but like I said, whatever gets you off.
Except for pedophiles. They deserve to be jailed.
August 11th, 2009 at 9:47 am
The creator for Ashley Madison spoke on the radio, here in Toronto (where I think it started), defending the site claiming it was actually strengthening marriages since they’re people who love their spouses but aren’t receiving physical satisfaction, or what not, so thus there’s nothing wrong with a mutual agreement of “just sex” between users.
It boggles the mind that anyone can not only justify this but actively enable it
August 11th, 2009 at 9:48 am
@Kage (51): there entitled to what gets them off yeah but it doesn’t change the fact that they are still FREAKS. From your previous comment i suspect you’d be up for pretending to be a baby and letting your girlfriend or whatever change your nappy; one of the weirdest fetishes i’ve ever heard. certainly blows ‘a little spanking’ out of the water
August 11th, 2009 at 9:55 am
@Stevie C (53): Hah, no not neccessarily one for diapers my friend, but hey if I’m a freak because I like a little kink, whatever. But if you came across the most beautiful woman who you felt was the one, and she had a freaky fetish, you’d drop her like a stone? Sad day, friend, when one is so vanilla, they can’t spice up their sex life with something interesting and new. A lot of marriages end because of that, you know.
August 11th, 2009 at 9:57 am
thats some messed up shit right there
August 11th, 2009 at 10:07 am
@Kage (54): Calm down there bud. I’m not saying that all fetishes/kink are wrong or immoral are anything like that; that’s just silly, i think you’ve read me wrong. Of course you need to spice up your sex life in certain ways. I’m just saying that dressing like a baby one in particular is just a bit too far.
August 11th, 2009 at 10:09 am
Hahaha, people in this world crack me up.
I don’t see why people are making such a fuss out of #10. I mean sure, it’s wrong to cheat on your spouse, but if you’re going to do it anyway, why not find the right person to cheat with? It’s not like somebody is going to stumble onto that website and think, “Hey, I’ve never thought about it before in my life, but it kind of looks fun to have an affair! Where do I sign up?” It’s more like, “Oh cool, finally a place where I can find a decent affair. I’m getting tired of the pool boy…”
Great list, nonetheless :]
August 11th, 2009 at 10:18 am
Oh, my comment to you wansn’t in anger at all, hon. Well, think of it this way, every fetish has its extremes, and they all get more severe the deeper into the rabbit hole you get. Spanking branches into S&M, as well as the baby fetish. It all depends on how you look at it. If you want to be spanked by your daddy because you’re naughty, (I’m a girl, btw) then you probably will lean more toward ‘naughty kid’ spanking, if you want to be spanked by your master, then you probably lean more toward ‘domination’ spanking, much more severe in many cases.
August 11th, 2009 at 10:26 am
Enough of this spanking talk, that’s all fair and good, i understand that; but i can’t get my head around people who pretend to be babies to get off. They have got to be a bit weird. Can someone back me up here?lol
August 11th, 2009 at 10:33 am
I wonder if Scientific Match ever matches people that are related O_O
August 11th, 2009 at 10:35 am
Speaking from experience the diaper fetish or ABDL is far more diverse than explained in the list. It reaches into BDSM, Furry and Cosplay (probably a lot of others) with all soughts inbetween. Anyway it wont matter what u may think of me just giving some extra information. Anybody interested on more information about this fetish just type in ABDL on google. Personly I think Daily Daipers is a wonderful website allowing people who may have previously thought to be alone to come together and if not meet in person at least chat online.
August 11th, 2009 at 10:43 am
I’ve used No Longer Lonely in the past, and met a great friend on there using it. I’ve given up on online dating, and I’ve started using http://www.meetup.com to expand my circle of friends and developing a possible relationship right now with the help of it. I don’t think any other site has topped it, since the only expectation is to meet new people. Plenty of Fish and Okcupid are two others I’ve used, but women barley ever reply I’m not wasting my time with them anymore.
August 11th, 2009 at 10:47 am
@dread pirate bob (31): A friend of mine and I were both members of No Longer Lonely for a while. Based on our experiences, it really is a disaster waiting to happen :O
August 11th, 2009 at 10:53 am
@Anon (61): Speaking from experience the diaper fetish or ABDL is far more diverse than explained in the list…Anybody interested on more information about this fetish just type in ABDL on google.
Thanks for that. Now we can really gain an insight into the stunted minds of these deviants, rather than making “rash” judgments about them.
August 11th, 2009 at 10:55 am
@um (63):
How so? What makes No Longer Lonely more of a disaster then any other?
A friend of mine went out with a guy she met on Plenty of Fish, and they out for a walk in a park. he then put down a towel, and said “how about you have a seat”. She sat down, then he pulled down his pants and started wanking off in front of her.
Dating, online or not, is a risk. Unless you can bring forward some proof that NLL is more of a disaster then POF, your argument is moot.
August 11th, 2009 at 11:10 am
Darwin Dating makes me mad cause they’re giving good old Darwin a bad name. Don’t they realize that natural selection really had nothing to do with “attractiveness” and all to do with the fitness of their offspring? Aka, their ability to survive?
Obviously not. Beautiful stupid people are useless…
August 11th, 2009 at 11:14 am
@Bunbunbunbun (66):
I agree, it had nothing to do with Darwinism, but I guess the world needs it’s steady supply of brainless super models. If that site is anything it’s effective at keeping the narcissistic to themselves so nobody else has to deal with their BS.
August 11th, 2009 at 11:14 am
@Gauldar (65): A friend of mine went out with a guy she met on Plenty of Fish, and they out for a walk in a park. he then put down a towel, and said “how about you have a seat”. She sat down, then he pulled down his pants and started wanking off in front of her.
I blame her. She probably put the obligatory “long walks in the park” under the “Turn-ons” section of her profile, but mentioned nothing about wanking in the “Turn-offs” area. What a tease.
August 11th, 2009 at 11:16 am
@Gauldar (65): I never said NLL was more of a disaster than anything else. I’m saying that my personal experience (which I’m hesitant to share here, so you’ll just have to take my word for it) was pretty disastrous. Can compatible people find love on NLL? Sure. But the very nature of NLL will inevitably lead to a few nasty encounters. Just like pretty much any other site on this list.
August 11th, 2009 at 11:17 am
so i guess everyone here is ugly cause no one has tried darwin dating! huh. lol
August 11th, 2009 at 11:21 am
wow this is some debate. i love this site!
August 11th, 2009 at 11:24 am
I think that any site that can help people come together is good. Especially like minded people. It beats sitting in bars everynight, or putting an ad on craig’s list.
As far as the Ashley Madison site, it is doing nothing more than facilitating what will happen anyway. And I bet that a lot of their members are singles looking to hook up on a short term basis.
And, yes, all you judgmental people, whatever two adults do in their bedroom is OK. I am glad that these diaper wearing people have a way to find each other. We have all heard the horror stories of someone finding out that their spouse, friend is into something that they are not, and never will be. Leave them alone.

Just goes to show there is a dating site for everyone!
August 11th, 2009 at 11:57 am
@archiealt (75):
Oh I’m not jealous, I just have a hobby of kicking people off their high horse, if people consider being pretty a strength, their usually trying to over compensate their lack of everything else. People can be as shallow as they want if it makes them happy, but I’m just saying I’ve dealt with those people and when I come across them they are never worth my time. I don’t envy those people… I pity them. Over specialise and you breed in weakness.
August 11th, 2009 at 12:19 pm
@Gauldar (79):
I’m sorry hang on a second, what do you mean ‘if people consider being pretty a strength’, are you saying being pretty isn’t a strength? Cause i’m afraid your wrong.
You also say that you ‘have a hobby of kicking people off their high horse’, and then no more than a couple of sentences later admit to pitying shallow people. Hello pot, yeah this is Kettle, you called?
I also question just what makes people who use that website shallow. Some may well be shallow, however some might just want to meet people who weren’t last in line when god was handing out faces. Nothing shallow about that. Either way you’ve never met any of them and so are in no position to comment.
Beauty is something to be celebrated. So in the future please keep your jealous ramblings to yourself.

Hey gauldar why not just give it a rest dude you making yourself look like an ass.
Good call archiealt
August 11th, 2009 at 12:52 pm
@Gauldar (79): So, how do you spend your Saturday night. Go out to a bar and look for the ugliest person you can find? Who are you to “knock people off their high horse”? I have known people like you all my life, that is just out to prove something to others, usually because of your own failings.
August 11th, 2009 at 1:17 pm
LOL, sorry to troll around. I just got really bored at work and thought I’d drum up a pointless argument for fun. I’m glad your a proud defender of pretty people around the globe archiealt, but when a website says on it’s front page:
“Sick of dating websites filled with ugly, unattractive, desperate fatsos? We are.”
That’s pretty shallow. You can tell yourself whatever you want, but beauty is only a temporary trait, and propping yourself up on it is a weakness. If your life depends on something as fragile as that, you have nothing when it’s gone.
August 11th, 2009 at 1:36 pm
Haha you should add Pounced.org !
furry dating website!
August 11th, 2009 at 1:55 pm
@Gauldar (83): but when a website says on it’s front page:
“Sick of dating websites filled with ugly, unattractive, desperate fatsos? We are.”
That’s pretty shallow.
Yet you just had to go to the site and check it out for yourself, didn’t you. What were you expecting? Sounds like someone couldn’t make the cut…

August 11th, 2009 at 2:53 pm
Woohooo!!! The ugly people shall rise again!!! I think being yourself should be celebrated
Sorry for the corniness
August 11th, 2009 at 3:13 pm
@Gauldar (81):
Now, Gauldar, as you well know i am not a ‘defender of pretty people around the globe.’ Please don’t make ridiculous comments such as these. What i am, however, is somebody who gets ever so slightly annoyed at individuals such as yourself who have an automatic dislike for people who are prettier than them. I direct you to this spiteful little comment,
‘If that site is anything it’s effective at keeping the narcissistic to themselves so nobody else has to deal with their BS.’
Secondly, who said anything about your life depending on beauty. Beauty is something which can be of great benefit to a person, surely anyone who is not blinded by envy can realise that. However i don’t think anybody here is suggesting it is something to base your life on. That is just the preconception you have about anyone who looks half decent.
Now, crazy as this may sound, i myself am not in the market for a desperate fatso. I understand that to someone as righteous as yourself that may sound shocking, but try to contain yourself. Does that make me a shallow person, i happen to think not.
Gauldar, what you said in your first comment was unquestionably the words of somebody who is pretty pissed off with good looking people. It was full to the brim with , for want of a better word, bitchiness and i suggest you stop trying to qualify it.
With that said i’m off to go spit on all the ugly people i can find, then do a couple of lines of coke and fuck some other beautiful people.
August 11th, 2009 at 3:27 pm
I wonder how many of the people who use these dating sites really belong on the “badass living creatures” list from yesterday.
August 11th, 2009 at 4:12 pm
God I hope no one mentions Pounced, I’ve been embarrassed enough today.
August 11th, 2009 at 4:53 pm
really cool dating sites.

Ain’t nothin wrong with the AB/DL fetish; there are much weirder ones, and its really similar as hating a gay person or saying they are insane/mentally ill. You are just closed minded, poor you.
By the way, I bet many of you wished you had a fetish where you could ‘transform’ into something and the world is shut out; your mind is at a blissful state without a worry in the world. Just like the flick of a button. Just like a drink of alcohol, or a hit of marijuana… except its totally harmless, and super sexual with the mind being in such a state.
You feel sorry for the fetishists; they feel sorry for you. Lol.
August 11th, 2009 at 7:20 pm
@DiaperDude (92): Ain’t nothin wrong with the AB/DL fetish…You feel sorry for the fetishists; they feel sorry for you. Lol.

@j reb (35): Making fun of stoners as if they are stupid, and you can’t spell ‘hear.’ What does that say about you? You weren’t stoned when you typed that…
By the way, these sites are catering to weird people. 90% of people who date online (note that I didn’t say 100%) are awkward or ugly and can’t find love in real life, what do you expect dating sites to be like?
August 11th, 2009 at 7:47 pm
wow.. interesting list… hahas
if you guys aren’t busy, can you please vote for this. Just click ‘love it!’ It would help us out so much. & if you don’t want to, that’s fine.

August 11th, 2009 at 8:32 pm
Only 90-some comments so far? Interesting.
I was surprised to see the mentally ill social site, but actually it may be a positive thing. I hope the owner can rephrase some of the articles to sound a little more professional.
I am wondering on the scientific site….maybe I missed something, science is by far not something I excel in (I am a musician, I only need to move my fingers fast and count to four), but how can someone have “immune system” DNA? Doesn’t it vary based on your health at the time? How do you only extract certain parts of someone’s DNA?
Someone translate that to layman’s terms for me please!
August 11th, 2009 at 8:47 pm
@fifthsonata (98): I am in no way qualified to answer your questions but I’ll try. If I can remember high school Bio class correctly your DNA controls things in your body to an extent (like height or having a good immune system) but environmental factors also play a part. So someone who has a better immune system based on DNA would generally be healthier than someone who did not have the same predisposition, unless something goes wrong with their body that offsets their natural advantage. Someone let me know if I am totally wrong.

The truth is BrotherMan, that if some sort of alpha/omega prophecy ever happened; ala’ An Earthly Utopian Garden Of Peaceful Resolutions with The Prospering Guardian Entities, then Yes, Eons of Blissful Euphoria would Bloom Forth, BUT, new islands would eventually have to be cut/constructed because the Human Mind will ALWAYS Sicken and become Bored, No Matter What.
August 11th, 2009 at 10:14 pm
@93 I’d say the vast majority of AB/DLs do not sit around in their own excrement. In fact, some, like myself, don’t get off on wetting or messing at all. We simply find comfort and security in wearing diapers; it can be far more than just a sexual thing/fetish.
Have you ever worn a diaper as an adult? How do you know they’re not softer and more comfortable than your tighty-whiteys?

Wish I had read this sooner to jump in on the nll debate. I don’t think the author is unjustified. It’s not making fun of the mentally ill to point out it might not be a good idea for them to date eachother. Think about it: two people with, say, bipolar disorder would be less likely to cope with each others behavior. Having a mentally healthy husband has helped me through many episodes… It really wouldn’t have worked if he were having episodes too.
August 12th, 2009 at 6:36 am
I think http://www.theatlasphere.com should have made the list.
August 12th, 2009 at 3:52 pm
Fetish websites such as http://www.collarme.com and http://www.alt.com could have also made the list.
August 12th, 2009 at 6:52 pm
Baahah, I love this site, Come on, I’m an AB myself, trust me, we are a weird freaking bunch. I showed the trekkies one to my husband and he’s like “AHH! I wanna check it out!* snickers.
August 13th, 2009 at 4:21 am
I’ve heard about most of these on another list website. Still interesting to see what’s out there.
August 13th, 2009 at 5:20 am
Rofl. I’ve read the comments here. As usual some people take themselves too seriously. As for those who said that #10 is based on things that are gonna happen anyway. Puh lease. Cheating should not be made easier or more convenient! Are u psychos hearing yourselves? By no means am I one to be moral police but give me a bloody break. So I suppose if kids are gonna snort coke the cocaine shops should just open on every corner? Sheesh.

Today i have seen 7 of them. But really good. Thank you for sharing here.

That tiny profile picture of “omer19″ in recently joined section of the Darwin Dating homepage looks like a mustachioed John Abraham (stress, from that tiny picture).
August 14th, 2009 at 12:40 pm
This was kind of interesting. I just tried the online thing for a bit, at OKCupid. Problem was, there’s a limited amount of people near my age (44) in my area that aren’t married and are on the site. I’m sure there are more; they just aren’t on there. I did keep getting this one person looking at my profile who would have loved #10. Also, a weird guy whose picture was just a knight’s helmet and whose messages were incomprehensible. LOL!
After a month, I took down my profile. Just not my thing. I’m already stuck at my computer writing; I need something that gets me OUT of the house, not keeps me in!
August 15th, 2009 at 10:24 pm
Some of those are more out there then others, but I’m very disappointed in your inclusion of No Longer Lonely.
Do people with mental issues not deserve a website that will help them find likeminded people? Are we somehow deserving of your criticism because we have a problem we didn’t ask for and can’t do anything about?
I personally know three people from that website, and I’ve been a member for awhile now. Most people on that site, you would have NO IDEA they had a mental handicap if you just met them on the street. Very disappointed that you feel the need to criticize there.
August 16th, 2009 at 12:32 am
I like the scientific match one, but the 2k price tag for lifetime membership is probably too much for me. On the other hand, I wouldn’t mind the blind dating, it’ll be a nice change, so who you date wouldn’t ruin your expectations ha.
August 17th, 2009 at 3:01 am
Why would people use the Darwin website? If they were so attractive they would not find the need to use it. Doesn’t make sense.
August 17th, 2009 at 7:18 am
yeah because having depression is equal to playing with your own feces and people with depression should be given STD’s? what the hell is the matter with you?
August 19th, 2009 at 7:56 pm
damien(the list writer), you really fucked up with the Mental Illness comment.
it’s entertaining to read everyones take on the list but in regards to the NLL part its quite obvious you were being a big ignorant prick by in-the-same-breath pairing likeness between mental illness and STD’s. you can say you were joking now, but the way you wrote it shows it to be more your innate sentiment on the matter moreso than a topical farce.
Eitherway totally uncalled for.
Points though for at least just letting your bigot-flag fly high. no need in hiding your ignorance i guess…i like to know where i stand with people right off the bat.

@EMZ: Please keep your schizo brother his house. He just might forget to take his medicine and then someone dies. Also, if he met another schizo person they would NEVER leave the house. I mean, honestly, if you had a house full of imaginary people everyday that were in CONSTANT need of hosting would you be able to leave?
August 23rd, 2009 at 1:34 am
@ twitus: alt.com members don’t really wanna “date” trust me. haha.

Ha. I took a peek at the Darwin Dating site and saw a picture of Jared Padalecki. I guess I should not have voted on that picture, since it’s obviously not really the guy, but I saw it and the cursor automatically went to 5/5…
October 10th, 2009 at 4:58 am
I love the idea of dating a girl behind bars. Although they may not be cheating on you with your best friend they may be cheating on you with their cell mate:)

Datehookup is a site with a limited wading pool of 40 and over males who make claims about themselves that they totally believe about themselves who obviously never made it passed the self awareness stage on Maslow’s hierarchy. They claim they want an independent attractive woman who is intelligent yet when they meet you, they are actually looking for a barbie doll who is submissive in all aspects. These are men who think so much of themselves that most of them never been in a long term relationship that can’t understand why they can’t find anybody when they can’t search withing themselves and realize they are the problem-not the women they are meeting. When someone lists retired or self employed, that means you made your money for life through productive means or are actually still working if you are self employed. Not on disability when you are obviously able to work. There has been a lot of hypocrites that commented about my looking for a younger male, yet they are allowed to date women young enough to be their daughter.
Singles net is one big lie. They say its free. Nothing is free. Not a thing. Then they expect you to pay and you have no say over your match criteria whatsoever. EVEN MORE SO THEY HAVE THE HYPOCRISY TO SEND YOU MATCHES THIRTEEN AND MORE YEARS OLDER THAN YOU BUT WONT SEND YOU ANYBODY MORE THAN FIVE YEARS YOUNGER THAN YOU. THEY ALSO LIMIT YOUR ABILITY TO SEARCH PEOPLE IN OTHER STATEs. A dating website should be evaluated or boast on the number of successful matches they have made, not the number of members on their site.
EHarmony is another one-they want you to pay and yet you have no say whatsoever on who you can search. I totally understand that search criteria is based on proprietary methodologies, but they are way off base for unique individuals. People don’t fit in boxes. And most people that have been in a long term relationship and are in their 40s and older usually know enough on what to look for on their own.
Its amazing the number of people out their that claim they are intelligent and attractive. Its probably appalling to people that do not fit that criteria but if they could actually develop criteria to tease out people who actually are intelligent, financially secure, mature, compassionate and can match attractiveness, average, and below average looks with others of the same criteria, then that would be the successful website.

Great list! Even though a couple of the sites are sad or appalling, at least it gives like-minded souls (like Trek fans) a chance to find each other.
Thank you for taking the time to put this together.
