@Bob, It may be a private business but the devil is in the marketing. If eHarmony marketed itself as an online Christian singles club that would be one thing, but as a service that makes no such distinction it is clearly in violation of anti-discrimination laws. Serving heterosexuals is not niche marketing, since it advertises itself to the general public as a non-targeted dating site to exclude based on sex, race, or orientation is against the law. This isn't the same as a site that caters to gays, a better analogy would be a site that catered to white couples only. The problem is homophobia is more acceptable than racism in our society, which is why people would be up in arms if eHarmony excluded blacks, but seem to be generally accepting of it excluding gays.]]>Nov 25th 2008 5:00PM
