Woman Sues Dating Site Over Alleged Sex Assault
By not in system - AOL NewsLOS ANGELES – A California woman has sued popular website Match.com, saying she was sexually assaulted by a man she met through the online dating service. The civil lawsuit filed Wednesday in Los Angeles Superior Court contends the alleged assailant had previously faced sex crime charges and that the website could have prevented the attack if it had checked his criminal background. The woman suing the website is an entertainment executive identified in court documents only as Jane Doe. Her attorney Mark L. Webb said his client was attacked at her home by Alan Paul Wurtzel after the two ...
Moms Use Speed Dating Model to Find Caregivers for Their Kids
By Rebecca Delaney - AOL NewsLooking for a good baby sitter is very similar to dating. You contact scores of sitters, looking for "the one," you meet and after some awkward small talk. You may pick the wrong person, go through a bad breakup and then hit the bricks looking for your rebound sitter. Throughout the process you find some doozies as well as some truly amazing individuals, who, of course are booked every Friday and Saturday night. A few moms out there are making the process a little easier by taking their cues from the dating scene. Sitter Mixers Parents at a Sitter Mixer event "interview" ...
Sex and the Single Pastor: Dating Can be Hell for Unmarried Clergy
By David Gibson - Politics DailyValentine's Day can be heaven for lovers, and hell for lonely hearts whose solitude is only deepened by the sight of all the hoopla dedicated to the celebration (and commercialization) of coupledom. Now imagine what this romantic holiday -- and much of the rest of the year -- is like for single pastors who are looking for love and, yes, maybe even a passionate kiss good night if not a roll in the hay. In fact, most congregants probably don't want to think about the sex lives of the clergy, and if they do they may prefer to envision their intimate lives as reflections of the chaste virtues ...
Wing Women Help Guys Hit on Girls
By Susanna Baird - AOL NewsYou look toward the bar and there she is, tall and lovely, talking with her friends. You down a beer in the name of courage, throw back your shoulders, take three steps towards her ... then turn to the bartender, chatting with him as you ask for a beer instead of chatting with her as you ask for a phone number. Buddy, you need a wing woman. Courtesy Susan Baxter Susan Baxter turned her natural ease with chatting up strangers into a matchmaking service of sorts. Boston WingWoman, like similar services in other cities, provides the date-seeking man a hard-working Cupid ready to point her ...
Yankee Field Rusher Had Cameron Diaz Photos
By not in system - AOL News
(Oct. 20) -- With a name like Grim LeRogue, you've got to be a wee bit eccentric. Or loony, as the headlines are labeling the 33-year-old Brooklyn man who stormed the field at Yankee Stadium on Monday night with alleged aspirations of confronting Alex Rodriguez over his relationship with Cameron Diaz. For serious! Police sources tell the New York Post that LeRogue (formerly Joe Rogan) made his mad dash for A-Rod whilst carrying five pictures. One of them was of Rodriguez with an X over his face that said: "You have to go bud, you've ruined too many of our white queens." ...
Singles Survey: Palin Is 'Most Datable' Female Politician
By Mara Gay - AOL News(Oct. 13) -- Sarah Palin isn't running for office this November, but she's apparently won over the hearts of single men in America. In a recent Love and Politics survey by Zoosk, a popular online dating site, the former Alaska governor pulled in the highest percentage of votes for "most datable" female politician, at 32 percent. That's not to say, though, that most singles on the site are conservative. With 33 percent of the vote, Democratic San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom earned the title of "most datable" male politician. After a nonscientific survey of 1,000 of members -- most of whom ...
Where Single Ladies Are Scarce, Men Scramble to Put a Ring on It
By Katie Drummond - AOL News(Sept. 17) -- Men don't need to really, really love it to put a ring on it. They just need to like it well enough and be spurred by nightmares of solitary life in an apartment reeking of cats and desolate loneliness. That's at least the case in selected urban areas, where single women are scarce and have more eligible bachelors to choose from in matters of relationships and wedding vows, according to a study published in the August issue of the Journal Evolutionary Psychology. Daniel Kruger, an evolutionary psychologist, tabulated an "operational sex ratio" for 50 metropolitan areas. In ...
Shocking Study Result of the Year: Men Look at Faces to Find a Wife, Bodies to Find a Date
By Mara Gay - AOL News(Sept. 15) -- It's no surprise that a man who checks out a woman's body but pays little attention to her face probably isn't after a serious relationship. But now, there's science to prove it. According to new research out of the University of Texas, most men look at women's bodies to choose their short-term partners. Only if they're interested in making a commitment do they focus on the face. The Telegraph reports that the study suggested that men may have "a condition-dependent tendency to prioritize facial cues in long-term mating contexts, but shift their priorities to bodily cues in ...
Grindr iPhone App: GPS for the Sex Superhighway
By Delia Lloyd - Politics DailyRemember online dating? Gosh, that seems so last century. An iPhone application which allows cruising gay men to locate one another instantly using Global Positioning System technology is now spreading to the heterosexual market. This latest rage in online romance is called Grindr. Grindr is a free, downloadable iPhone app that lets you find "gay, bi, curious guys near you." It's sort of a sexual version of toptable -- an iPhone app that allows you to search for all the restaurants offering a certain cuisine in your immediate vicinity. Similarly, Grindr provides a grid of who else in your ...
eHarmony Is Just Not That Into Me
By Emily Miller - Politics DailyAs if dating and breakups aren't painful enough, I have topped my own spotted romantic history by being dumped by a computer program. The online dating service eHarmony rejected me as incompatible with any of its millions of other users. Ouch. As I'm the last of my girlfriends to get married, I'm subjected to all kinds of advice. And as anyone who is single will tell you, the most annoying thing your married friends ask is: "Have you tried online dating?" Married people think they can solve all the woes of the single girl with their simplistic, impersonal suggestion to try online dating. ...
