We’re sure you’re wonderful and beautiful in your own way. You ignore the haters, especially if they’re in the form of a judgmental dating app.
That dating app is Beautiful People, a private, members-only site designed to match up physically attractive people with other physically attractive people. Who’s defined as being physically attractive is up to the users of the site, who filter out ‘undesirables’ through, according to the founder, ‘a democratic rating system.
Those who don’t meet the mark aren’t welcome to join the site. And if you become less attractive, you can be kicked off. That happened to the site’s owner, Greg Hodge, last year.
Greg claims that 8.5 million people have been rejected from the site for not being beautiful enough, and that there are currently around 750,000 members. So yes, it’s quite exclusive (and highly superficial). But what exactly will get you excluded from the site.
A poll of 3,000 Beautiful People members asked what ‘ugly’ features would make them say ‘no’ to an aspiring member. It’s pretty harsh reading, with unibrows and ‘crooked’ noses offensive enough to deem you unworthy of love through the site.
