Brain Dancing: a bluntly personal look at online dating: Hot -- or not so hot?

Hot -- or not so hot?

Here is are actual photos I found on Hot or Not.com, an online dating website that gives us all a chance to get rated like a cut of USDA meat.

Could these guys really seriously think they're hot, sexy guys on a scale of one to ten? Or are they just pulling my leg? (Hey, one guy pulled it so far it's amputated.)

Or is there truly someone for everyone out there in the vast online dating smorgasboard that is cyberspace?

People Who Love Brain Dancing

"I discovered and aparently enjoyed your site. Nice work." Ron K. Jeffries - http://blog.eronj.com ["Cloudy Thinking"]

You are such a great storyteller! Wanted to let you know you inspired me to write some on this topic and I linked to your post. It's an interesting issue, and I like your analysis about the diminishing roles of fathers.- Jan, The View from Her

I love your site. Your writing style is very good! the words just flow so well. Even with the internet there's still a huge disconnect between those looking for love and those who find it. So many people still go to bed alone everynight. The connections aren't being made. - BJ

Thanks for letting me vent:) Hope you have a date tonight... I sure as hell don't:) - Robb Valli, Desperate Dating

I enjoyed your alternately hilarious and sober blog. With the current ratio of men to women online, and the apparent dearth of people who can string a couple of coherent sentences together, it would seem that you are in the catbird's seat. -- Chris, Founder Love.org

Your post cracked me up. Imagery of your ex, pony-tail proudly cracking in the wind with a look of liberated and oddly-sad abandon as he caroms off a retaining rail...- Karl

Your writing is really captivating! - Free Thinker

I came across your site while surfing Rate This Blog. Good work! - Melinda B.

Your dating stories DO belong in a book. Funny, in a painful kind of way. - Annie

It may not be the same, but as with any other metamorphosis, I want to see every stage of the change. I hope you keep writing. - Anonymous

I appreciate your position -- and your non-physical attributes (such as your writing skills) -- and I say, t'hell with anybody who says otherwise. Get out there and take the town by storm! - Chris
