The studies OkCupid puts out are worth reading, if only for sheer entertainment value. I'm not sure if their subscriber base is really indicative of daters as a whole (meat market?), but I'll bite. The most recent study found that women who are perceived as "ugly" by some actually get more . . .
Twitter love
I'm taking an informal poll...how many of you people out there have dated someone you met over Twitter? I know people who met over Facebook, but Twitter seems a little harder to assess. It's pretty easy to flirt, but for some reason, it feels very removed from real life to me. And Facebook . . .
