Want to Meet a Nice Girl? Sue!

Apparently when you find a business that doesn’t sell what you want, you sue them. At least, that’s the thought process of Linda Carlson. She is suing the online dating site eHarmony because they don’t offer Man seeking Man or Woman seeking Woman options. She sees this as discrimination against gays and bisexuals. She and her lawyer are hoping to get this as a class action suit and seek damages for all those who were denied the service of the site because they were gay. To all of this, I say, “What?” Does this not strike you as absurd? The site caters to a niche market of heterosexual daters. How is this different than sites that cater to gay daters? What about racial specific dating sites? Should all us honkies sue Asian Friend Finder too? The ridiculousness of people today just makes me mad and sad at the same time. Why is it that today everyone sees litigation as the first and best option?
