Dating Website Kicks The ‘Fatties’ Off

By Von-Anise McCoy January 5, 2010 11:19 am

no-fat-chicks-de

When your name is Beautifulpeople.com, I guess that you have a standard to uphold, therefore we should not be shocked because this site’s members voted to kick 5,000 people off because they gained weight during the holiday season. OMG, as if big girls don’t have it hard enough when trying to date!

The dating site describes itself as being for the ‘exclusively beautiful community’ while selling the image of being an elite social networking site according to the Free Press.com

TLC Show Makes A Spectacle Of Black Obese Family

The founder, Robert Hintze released a statement “as a business we mourn the loss of any member, but the fact reminds that our members demand that a high standard of beauty be upheld. Letting fatties roam the site is a direct threat to our business model and the very concept to which BeautifulPeople.com was founded according to The New York Daily News.

Apparently he’s not familiar with the term, “big and beautiful.” Is that fair? Let us know what you think.

    RichardMann11 I feel sorry for you. You worrying about being embarrassed. Your not God, you might miss out on your soul mate trying to please people. You don’t know what kind of package God has your soulmate wrapped in. Why did I get married is a good example. Poor thing let a good woman go because of her size and got a people pleaser and that was all she was. The outter covering. In the end he wanted his big girl back. Grow up man!!!!

    a lil thick is cool with me but MOST women who call themselves BBWs or whatever the term is are just plain fat and obese and sloppy. now I love a woman with meat on her bones but I dont want no fat woman. her being fat is not saying she is not beautiful or does not have a personality but I dont wanna be embarrassed when walkin down the street with u. I dont wanna not be holding ur hand cause I dont want people to know im fukin with a fat chick. its not a good look. put the cupcake down and break out that P90X and get healthy. obesity causes serious health issues. loose a few of them rolls

    WOOOOWWW!!!! it really surprises me how many ppl on here and in this world are so ignorant and selfish that it does not make any sense to me at all….. BIG GIRLS, PHAT GIRLS and BBW’s (whatever you callin ‘em now) always has the right to do anything as everyone else in this country….. Not all big people are going to look good, yeah I agree with u on that, but that goes for skinny folks too… And for CHI_BAD_B***H (lol yes I am calling u out) what u wrote makes u sound extremely ignorant its crazy, There are a lot of people out there who don’t have a problem being big at all and a matter of fact I happen to be one of them, I do know one thing that I DAMN SURE AINT UGLY!!! The creator of the website and U obviously don’t know what the word discrimination is do u hmmm… I don’t think u do…. But U know what everyone has there own opinions about other people and sometimes its sad that its always negative…. So I’m done talking, yall makin my head hurt with all this ignorance…..

    Lol I loathe the term BIG GIRL… a BIG GIRL is when little Sarah is old enough to ride her bike without the training wheels! And why do morbidly obese people get to automatically be considered “beautiful”? Being overweight has nothing to do with how one’s face looks but to say being fat is beautiful? Come on now…. Nobody wants to be fat!… and I don’t see anything wrong with them kicking off members for being overweight… it goes against their terms of use more than likely… in the little fine print it says “no fat chicks!” lol…

    I just signed up for this site….LMAO This is what it said: “The huge media coverage is currently generating so much traffic on our servers that we have had to limit some users from using the site. We are sorry for the inconvenience.” followed by
    “Note:
    If you just created a new profile and was forwarded to this page, your profile was registered correctly and you will be notified when the site is again accessible.”

    I’m sure this is the reviewing process. I’ll keep u guys updated. Hell I may be too dark for this, but german men love it so never mind.

    I feel their are still men that like big women the question is where are they. The men that keep coming arcoss my path are married or they just think they can use me as a sexual dumping ground as if that is all a big girl are worth to them. Please let me know where are all the good men who just want a good woman wheither she is big or not just as long as you want to be good and faithful and love each other.
