I was tempted to sign up to see what the demographic looked like. But I doubt i'd find a profile that looked something like this:

"Turn ons - RPG's (Not the video games infidel...) AK-47's, IEDs, explosions, virgins, kittens.

Turn offs - America, isreal, humvee's, white wine"

It just doesn't seem like something that muslims would be allowed to do. Didn't they just ban youtube from certain muslim countries? (I understand america is different, but when I saw the add, I couldn't help but chuckle)

Why should it be strange? Not all followers of Islam are bearded Luddite terrorists or burka-clad wailing women.

Would you expect a US dating site to only feature people who'd appeared on Jerry Springer, morbidly obese and materially obsessed? Or would that be unfair stereotyping?

no, it's supposed to attract people. Clearly it should only feature people who've appeared on Baywatch, slim, athletic, blessed with C-or-larger breasts, glistening wet, and/or David Hassellhoff.

agreed. I'm getting tired of the blatant bigotry towards Muslims all the time now.

Actually Christianity as a whole is, but they do the same thing. I've seen the same thing for "Christian singles" or what have you.

That, and referring to huge groups of people as a single, myopic being. "Muslims", "the black vote", "the Hispanic vote". I've never heard anyone talk about the "white vote", so why do it to other people? /endrant
