Thread: Christian Mingle must now allow same-sex matches

    Christian Mingle must now allow same-sex matches



    http://www.aol.com/article/2016/07/0...share_facebook

    Dating site ChristianMingle.com will soon allow users to search for same-sex matches, courtesy of a "judge-approved settlement of discrimination claims," the Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday.

    Under the terms of the settlement, the outcome of a lawsuit filed in California against dating site operator Spark Networks Inc. in 2013 by two gay men who claimed the company's refusal to provide same-sex matches constituted discrimination, Christian Mingle and other sites operating under the company's purview will simply ask whether users are men or women. The settlement also requires the company to introduce features to Christian Mingle making it easier for gay and lesbian users to find others on the site.

    Unhappy

    Ok, I'm done. Going to cancel my membership immediately. I'd rather they shut down than cave in to the sodomites & lesbians. Ugh!

    I hope they remove "Christian" from their name.

    At least people are allowed to choose their orientation, meaning that users dont get requests from both genders in the name of gender neutrality. A possible future is where everyone is defined as fundamentally bisexual, is required to have had sex with both genders before marrying anyone and is sent to gender neutrality class if they are deemed to not be in touch with both sides of their sexuality. I'm not kidding, most things are possible.

    I think that a lot of the guys here need to cancel immediately.

    No need to cancel VW.. So long as you are not looking in the Women Looking for Women section then it's all good ...

    Was listening to Briother Hagin the other day talking about how at one point people were giving him grief abut his wife going to the hair saloon where there was a lot of cussing and gossiping and smoking going on .His response was well so long as she is not cussing and gossiping and smoking it's all good .

    We are too hard o9n oursleves sometimes. We may not be of the world but we are in the world and will have to deal with these things.

    PS: Back in 2006 E-Harmony had to cave in on the very same issue

    You know what's funny BAP (and a little scary)? I ACCIDENTLY clicked on the profile of a female. The way the site is set up, it suggest that I'm interested in getting to know her.

    I've tried at least a half dozen times to delete it, but it won't go away. My only comfort about it is that she hasn't responded!!

    I haven't canceled yet, but I deleted the APP. I haven't been very active anyway, so I'll probably move on soon.

    Good question. But I wouldn't trust it. Don't think heterosexuals are interested enough to sue.

    "Heterosexual Christian Mingle"

    you've got to admit that that sounds rather odd, even if they could get away with removing the gender orientation option.
