The times they are a' changing:
Online dating service eHarmony is adding another personality trait to its 29 dimensions of computability.
The California-based company will begin providing same-sex matches under as part of a settlement with New Jersey's Civil Rights Division.
Garden State resident Eric McKinley filed a complaint against the online matchmaker in 2005.
Under terms of the settlement, the company can create a new or differently named Web site for same-sex singles. The company can also post a disclaimer saying its compatibility-based matching system was developed from research of married heterosexual couples.
I'm assuming this lawsuit was because eHarmony did not offer their services to gay and lesbian clients. The article is short on details. I don't see anything wrong with a company that caters to a specific clientèle. Beyond that, if it is clear they don't want me as a customer, why would I want to use their services? I guess I don't get it.
