Charles Darwin on Dating
Darwindating.com takes a tongue in cheek approach to online dating and Darwin’s theory of evolution. It is the online dating service with a twist – it is for attractive people only...and right now, it's free.
Brisbane, QLD Australia, (PRWEB) June 28, 2006 -- Ever wondered where all the single, attractive people are? This week the time old question has been answered by Darwindating.com
Created by a group of university friends in Australia, the website takes a tongue in cheek approach to Darwin’s theory of evolution and online dating. It is the online dating service with a twist – it is for attractive people only.
Online dating has long been a slightly embarrassing but convenient means of finding a mate, used by millions around the world. Serious daters are often disappointed by misleading profiles and photo-shopped pictures. The creators took these facts on board and have created a chic and exclusive way for attractive people to meet.
Integral to this web site is the term “natural selection”, which was coined by Charles Darwin in his book The Origin of Species (1859). Natural selection is a "process by which individual organisms with favourable traits are more likely to survive and reproduce" (definition from Wikipedia).
The creators of Darwindating.com say “Our site is a natural evolution in the online dating industry. Regular online dating services aren’t for the discerning dater. This site is committed to providing a convenient, exclusive online dating service to objectively stunning people.”
So who decides if you are beautiful enough to be a member of Darwindating.com?
Members review applicants photos and give a rating from 1 (baboon) to 5 (babe). If the consensus is “babe”, an offer of membership is extended to the applicant. On acceptance the applicant becomes part of a select, highly evolved sample of the human race.
Darwindating.com has only launched last week and while it is accumulating gorgeous critical mass, all services are free. Applications can be made by clicking on the “join here” link below the picture of the latest applicant at darwindating.com.
Enjoy…and if you get in ... tell me what its like?
Background for editors
Darwindating.com was started by a group of uni friends from Sunny Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. Having all studied and launched professional careers, each found that their chosen career wasn’t quite as sexy as they’d hoped it would be. Sure, there were great perks, but the thought of sitting in a dingy office for the rest of time didn’t appeal to any of them…
Today most professions are largely web dependent. Observing both this and the shift to web based media the creators could see the value in creating innovative web sites. As each developed different areas of expertise, they became a group of people who could offer valuable skills to a business. To put these skills to the test, they started some projects - one being Darwindating. com
To track the evolution of Darwindating the creators are maintaining a blog at darwindating.wordpress.com
