eQuality?

eHarmony settled a legal dispute and will now cater to gay clientele. Dan Savage has a hard time getting worked up:

I’ve never understood the outrage about eHarmony. Yes, it’s a dating website for heteros, and they don’t match up queers and, yes, that smacks of discrimination. Hell, it actually is discriminatory. But there are tons of dating websites out there for homos—lots of which don’t match up heteros—and as rights violations go, eHarmony was pretty piddling.

But now eHarmony will be running a gay dating website—victory is ours!—but one with a name that makes it clear that 1. eHarmony is doing it under duress and 2. eHarmony will be holding us at arms length with eTongs for as long as they have to run this separate-but-equal website. Which hopefully won’t be for long. I predict that compatiblepartners.net will be among the least trafficked dating websites on the planet, right down there with guessyoulldo.com, desperatetogetpregnant.net, and blackgayrepublicans.org.

Joyner adds his two cents.
