What if I don't want to vote "normal" or "unusual" for the zombie one, but "AWESOME" instead?

I dont get the Darwin sight? Its usually not the beautiful but the stronger and more dominant that Darwin found coming out on top of the cycle. They should rename it something like Narcissistic dating, or Ego dating.. maybe plastic dating? but not Darwin. Just not what Darwinism was about.

Physical attractiveness is also a major factor.

A major factor in what? Finding a partner?

I can kind of understand farm dating having grown up in a farming community. It takes a certain kind of attitude to live on a farm way out in the middle of nowhere. Not that you have to work extra hard or get up early, but you have to be able to be semi isolated a lot and not have problems with dirt, bugs, animals, etc... not for your 5th ave shopaholic gold digger. thats for sure. Its more for someone who love the outdoors and growing things.

Eye of newt with a dash of bats' claws for spiciness.

Oh, take a shower, shave your back and pluck your nose hairs... they're always good ideas as well.

Belieeeieeve me, some people are real picky out there.

Can you imagine basing a relationship on the fact that you both like Ayn Rand?

They'd share the same perspective, with an inability to hear each other talking because the "head_up_butt" situation.

A perfect relationship - except for procreation.

I really don't see a problem with any of these websites. People should date who they want to date, and if their egos aren't too fragile, I say whatever lifts your luggage.

"whatever lifts your luggage" LMAO! Awesome.

Maybe it's just me, but shouldn't it be called "The 18 Most Unusual?"

OK- guess people are very specific about their preferences such as diaper wearing and zombie interest...nonetheless why would someone date an inmate?
THat is asking for trouble and I don't mean romantic trouble.

Well at least you always know where they are.

Maybe you enjoy the power play of knowing your significant other is locked up? Maybe you've really got a thing for bad boys/girls? Richard Ramirez (the Night Stalker) got married in prison.

Wouldn't the genetic one just pair you up with the closest relative?
