How, exactly, is this helpful or even desirable? Lot’s of closeted gay people get married, and it winds up tearing the marriage apart. Do you want a gay guy to marry your daughter?
I’m not a lawyer but I’m guessing eHarmony’s problem — in addition to the cost issues noted in the original post — is that it’s not explicitly a straight-only or Christian site, thus making it more difficult to argue that being forced to match same-sex couples undermined its mission.
UPDATE: GayPatriotWest wonders when a Christian will sue JDate, “The Leading Jewish Singles Network,” and Michelle Malkin suggests, “Perhaps heterosexual men and women should start filing lawsuits against gay dating websites and undermine their business. Coerced tolerance and diversity-by-fiat cut both ways.”
What is unequal is that if you are straight, you naturally fall in love with and are attracted to people of the opposite sex
The same, I suppose, could be said for Black protesters during the Civil Rights movement. All those impertenant people like Martin Luther King Jr, stamping their feet when they didn’t get “their way” (i.e. – equal rights under the law).
It really is remarkable how thoroughly — pardon the expression — whitewashed the Civil Rights movement has become in the memories of many Americans. Peaceful protest by submissive blacks led by Martin Luther Ghandi.

There may be logical arguments in these matters. That’s not one of them. They can marry anyone of the opposite sex that will have them. What’s unequal about that?
Now, when the ADA first came out, it was clearly going to build into something along these lines. Then again, so it has been for every leftist cause. Think about it; What did Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton and the rest make their money on? Molski, in short, was trying to become the white, paraplegic Jesse Jackson. Of course this stuff has it’s victims.
Although they invariably factor in romantic preferences, none of the surveys I’ve cursorily checked paid adequate attention to white women’s preference or lack thereof to physical characteristics and attributes of Asian men. It would have been interesting to know how they viewed the Mongoloid and Caucasian features and physique of East Asian and East Indians respectively.
