Only in Los Angeles

Ahh, it's a relief to know that while life can't be as perfect as an 80's movie, we can still get tiny, vibrant flashes of it in Los Angeles. A convertible cruising the Sunset Strip loaded down with designer gifts in the backseat? Santa wearing shades at night and listening to Adam Ant? Oh yes. Yes, yes, yes!!!

Darwin Dating

It's always been survival of the fittest in Los Angeles. If you're not a size six or below, forget the boutiques of Sunset Plaza. If your acting career hasn't made it past pilot season, good luck getting into The Roosevelt on the weekend.

While plastic surgeons and personal trainers work to eliminate the flaws in all of us, competing for decent men in a town filled swimsuit models and starlets can feel like a blood sport. That's where Darwin Dating comes in.

This site officially states: Darwin Dating was created exclusively for beautiful, desirable people. Our strict rules and natural selection process ensures all our members have winning looks. Will you make the cut? To determine whether or not you "make the cut" the community grades your looks on a scale. The not-so-clever verbiage is almost embarrassing. "Ass-like or Awesome?" are on opposite ends of the scale. Yes, I just said "ass-like."

Ironically, I thought the type of people to use the term "ass-like" would be weeded out during the natural selection process. But many people have completely disregarded Darwin's emphasis on intelligence. Apparently, smarts don't keep you going - big boobies do. It's survival of the hottest. You can be so stupid that you need a helmet for when you smack into walls, but if you're cute, people will line up to help you breed those gorgeous, degenerate genes.
