Are You Hot Enough For HotEnough.org?

All you hotties out there get ready for the ultimate meat market for Web 2.0! Our editor shoveled me some info about a unique dating site that I just had to inform our readers about. HotEnough is a new dating site that is exclusively for the hot. If nothing else the site promises to either hurt some feelings or explode the heads of those allowed entry to the site.
As a registering user 3 photos must be submitted in order for the “prospective” HotEnough applicant to be allowed entry. The process can take between 3 to 5 days (or an eon in Internet time) for the admin to decide on their “hotness”. But Wait! That is not the end of your microscopic evaluation; users are still just a plebe in the eyes of the Hotenough admin. After this initial scrutiny prospective “hotties” are then voted on by the standing membership before passing door number two into the bowels of beast.
According to the site's info page Hotenough feels that fit and attractive singles deserve a better than average dating pool, and that this opportunity is not afforded at any of the other major sites. Members are supposedly assured that their tastes and compatibility will be enhanced due to this methodology. What about hot guys who like really smart girls and etc? ? What if all the really hot guys and girls enter here and don't come out again, think about that for a minute?
All righty then! We can all be superficial critters and especially men sometimes, but is it necessary to relegate our existence to gym time, plastic surgery visits and perceived good looks? The site is constructed (at least on the outside) very tastefully. It is kind of like one of those clubs that have little windows in the doors to limit access. You know those places where anyone might want to visit but where any relationship of depth has about one chance in a million of happening.
The site innovator has some smarts it is true. Everyone will want a chance to either be “labeled” hot by a whole community or to take a peek at really beautiful girls and boys, but what about bad hair days? Perhaps I am just jealous because my hotness will certainly be determined to be over officially on their receipt of my pitiful photos. I really just applied so I could show you the inside (honest), and I want you all to know that I am so above this sort of thing otherwise that I feel almost violated.
There is a chance though, don't you think? Seriously, I have expected a site like this for some time because of the obvious appeal and buzz it may generate. We all want to see if we measure up in one way or another, but if the site really wants potential trophy wives to sign up they need to allow pencil necked doctors to buy their way in at least.
Honestly, how many times have you seen the perfect couple walking the streets? Relationships are based on more than some arbitrary ratio of fitness and good looks. I think the site needs to have 3 distinct areas: one for female hotties and male geeks, one for the reverse of that equation and one for people who just look marvelous. This way Hotenough would corner the market on people unable to interact in the physical world.
In the screen below you will note that “BooBooKitty” of Hotenough bears a remarkable resemblance to Kim Basinger and that even on my worst hair day ever you can see we are the perfect couple.

I got in, with about the exact rating that I’d rate myself (8.5)
Looked at my local area….. tumbleweeds.
I sent out a few emails and winks. And only one girl has even looked at my profile.
The problem with the site, is that people are signing up just to see how they get rated, then not paying the fee to actually meet people.
This service is about as effective as the old hotornot.com site that had its brief success in 2001.
But yahh… it did feel good to make it
For what its worth, I do think the concept is spot on… Not many people I know go to the library to meet girls. Attraction is first and foremost.
To steal a line from the movie Liar Liar….
Son: “…But dad, mom says beauty is on the inside”
Dad: “Thats just something ugly people say…”
LOL.
