Twine: A Dating Site With No Faces - The Daily Beast

“Every other dating app is trying to show you a photo and pick people who are good looking,” Singal says. Twine’s model of syncing people with similar interests, he says, was inspired by just looking around at the couples in everyday life doing things they both like together.

Twine’s taking a risk by taking physical attraction out of the dating picture, at least at first. Keeping faces blurred means it might never achieve the download numbers of the game-like Tinder. The recent update has already boosted the number of pairs by nine percent, and the developers are teasing a few more upcoming games and activities to make friendship a focus. But, statistics aside, people love to judge, whether it’s in real life or online, and that shallow aspect of digital dating is a big part of its appeal.

I like that idea. But I'm an oddball. I want to know how intelligent a person is before I interact with them. I judge more on brains than hot abs. I think people get distracted by pics and forget to get to know the person.

Ok, maybe I'm shallow but I need to see what someone looks like. If I can't look at their face across the table at dinner, then I don't want to date them no matter how smart they are or how many common insterests we may have. It's not that I put looks at the top of my list, but it is important enough to be on my list; it's a both/and thing. :coffee:

I'm a shallow person, too, because if I find them unattractive or unappealing, then I'm just wasting my time as well as their time.

I like 'em pretty and stupid. It makes me feel smart.

Fortunately in my experience people, pretty or otherwise show ou who they are within a few minutes of meeting so not having a picture does not make the getting to know you phase any different.

Luckily I have brains and an ab.

Pics, no pics, description, no description. People post old or highly flattering photos that look nothing like the real person, and they lie about who they are and what they like to do. So it's a crapshoot all the way around.

Get yer ass out of your recliner and go meet people in real life.

What struck me was how much people lie. Healthy/slightly overweight does not mean you are the same size as the starting left guard for the Buffalo Bills.

I had an experience like that. She had a face shot but when we met for lunch her ass was so wide she had to turn sideways to get through the door. <--Not joking. Sorry but there is no personality regardless of how supreme can overcome physical unattractiveness.

Good because that is unhealthy. When you can sit a box of 12 McDonalds Mighty Wings on each ass outcropping and they stay sitting upright you might have a problem.

Your moo-moo looked nice though. :huggy:

From the way Pete describes her, your whole body would make one of this woman's butt cheeks.

Omg. :roflmao: Why does this make me think of that cartoon where the woman couldn't find her dog?
