Online dating would be great... but fats manage to ruin it. Online dating seems like it'd be great; You can get to know people before you meet them, you can expand your dating pool (which was a godsend for me, probably being the only les in the nearest town, dating literally isn't an option), and it's nice for people who don't "Go Out", but of course fats have to go out of their way to ruin it. The first problem is insincerity.  My least favorite phrase in the world has to be "A few extra pounds", along with "Thick" and "Big". There's a difference between being slightly out of shape for whatever reason and being overweight, but these fuckers delude themselves into thinking that they're "just a little thicker" when they weigh 50+ lbs more than they should. I especially hate that the terms thick and big are basically kid glove synonyms for fat. I'm 5'8, I do MMA and work out a lot because of it and I'm just naturally stocky, but if I say I'm big or thick most people will think "Oh look, trick angle fat chick, bye." This is without even going into trick angles and old photos. I've gotten to the point where I basically insist on Facetiming or Skyping with girls before I invest the time to date them because there's so many hogs who are good at taking pictures of themselves. Fats are also the most spoiled group ever, feeling entitled to anyone and acting as if it's a sin to not be attracted to them. I find that I'm not really attracted to black girls, redheads or guys and that's OK... But if I don't find overweight people attractive then I'm a scumbag. This can also take the form of the Nice Guy; basically, your typical beta-male obese autistic guy with no social skills who thinks that women should date them simply because they're "nice" to girls. Well, first off there's not some sort of fat beta male monopoly on being nice. Being nice is not a marketable skill, being nice is the equivalent of having your high school diploma. In addition, "nice guys" completely ignore the fact that they're literally the opposite of nice. They don't want to date the most attractive women in town because they think that they're going to really click, they want to have sex with them. How nice are you when you're basically trying to lowball yourself into a relationship with someone you have nothing in common with? Finally (and this may be a bit niche) fats have ruined the lesbian dating community. There's so many short pink dyed hair Women's Studies Major possessing feminist lesbians (presumably so because heterosexual sex became mechanically impossible for them) who have the most empty, bland, cookie-cutter personalities yet think they're God's gift to the world. Even without that aspect, there's a huge portion of the community that's fat, and it's almost to the point where nobody has standards and those who do feel like the survivors in the police station in the zombie movie, surrounded by fat, slow moving, unintelligent blobs that want to eat.
