Even on JDate, it seems like the "Your Matches" that they send me are regularly the same five guys. (Three of whom are probably already married and off the site but just forgot to take down their profiles.) Why is the Jewish world behind on equal dating opportunities for gay singles? Come on, don't you know why? And Shmuel, there is <a href="http://sawyouatsinai.com" rel="nofollow">Saw You at Sinai</a>, which is a nationwide network of matchmakers (not all matchmakers everywhere are currently part of the network, but if they want to catch up with the times, they probably will be in the future).

And combined sites have the added benefit of the larger publicity/word of mouth that comes from a larger constituency. All of the big, mainstream, goyish (er, "non-sectarian?") dating sites like Match.com, Nerve.com, whathaveyou all offer their services to everyone regardless of their gender or the gender(s) they're looking for. Why is the Jewish world behind? (This clearly stems from my frustration from seeing the same ten schlemazels on gayjews.net over and over and over again.)

There are few guys w/ Yarmulkes in the area where I work so when I see one I ask them if they can join our minyan at lunchtime. WHat I mean is, perhaps you could be involved in some other project that would be putting you in direct contact w/ people not necessarily to date but you never know, rather than hitting these web sites, or in addition to. I am not saying that you dont do this already, but I haven't seen in your writing. Perhaps you could try to raise money for a cause for example, or do publicity.

Most sites tend to be either for straight Jews or for GLBT. Which I think is only logical. Why would a gay man or woman want a regular dating site that had straight people on it in addition to the gay men and women that they're looking for? I know it peeves me and my fellow females who are looking for a nice, straight Jewish boy, have search results that include nice Jewish gay boys. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but that's clearly not who we're on JDate to meet. Not that I'm on JDate. But you get the point.

Problem is, the camera does add ten pounds and you need to put your make-up on first. Who wants to do their hair just to jump on the IM? Also, even a perfect gentleman is eventually going to say..."uh, can you step back from the camera a little and point it down a bit...now turn around..." They suddenly become Martin Scorcese. They want the full body view before the date. If a guy can't decide if he wants to date me based on a fairly recent face photo, I don't want him, likewise if he can't post a fairly recent face photo of himself.
