#23isn't lulu a self-publishing service?
Lulu is a name. Services and products often use generic terms and names.

#24As a guy, I couldn't care less that these kinds of things exist. This app will be used exclusively by a superficial audience who I would have absolutely no interest in meeting. If anything, I'd quite like to end up on this with extremely negative reviews just so the horrible people using this will stay the fuck away from me.

#25Wow, it's like everything that I used to fear about the dating world put into one shiny app. Had this been out years ago when I was single, it would've definitely given me a lot of anxiety. Having been happily married for 5 years, all I can say to single folks is that if someone actively rates people on apps/sites like this, they are most likely not the kind of people you want to be with in the long run.
As for the startup/app itself, it's the natural evolution of taking HotOrNot ratings + OKCupid profiles + Fuckedcompany gossip and building it into a neat package. There is certainly a demand for apps like this in the market but if you're a user, try to be nice even if you don't like someone. People can become really mean when anonymous.

#27In recent times I've gotten the impression that their is a double standard going on regarding certain (not all) services and events that are only targeted to women. If this had been an app for men rating and alerting them about certain women all hell would of broke loose.
The problem in this case is that in the same way women are most often the recipients of sexual discrimination, men are most often the recipient of being decried as sexual discriminators. It's so easy to look down on someone identifying as male as being discriminant but when the opposite is true, the male point of view is often ignored. Simply put, we are expected to man up, whereas women are expected to stand up.
I don't think it's quite as dramatic as you say. But personally I'm ok with it.
Men have been getting the good end of sexual discrimination for centuries. Owning property. Voting. Higher education. Being allowed to practice a profession. Being favored by marriage laws. Being favored by social biases.
Like Peter Parker and Voltaire say, "With great power comes great responsibility." Having received a substantial boost just for being born with a dick, I'm ok with manning up. To me, that's part of using my power to redress the imbalance.

#28I think it's hilarious and a brilliant idea. Everyone knows that dating is a lemons market, what's wrong with trying to fix it? And presumably you can rate things how you want... so if people want to put #Big.Feet or #AlwaysPays, that's their choice.
That you felt the need to make a new account simply to post this comment shows that you don't fully agree with your own point of view.

#29Interesting to see a startup with a business model that is entirely based in toeing the line of libel. I wouldn't bet on its sustainability...but certainly interesting to watch nonetheless.

#30I can't help feeling that the people who use such an app to date and rate deserve each other.
Precisely my feelings. #UsesLulu would be all I would've wanted to know about someone to realize it wouldn't work out. Similar to girls who drive SUVs and support Drill-Baby-Drill. Big red flags.
