The name of this [dating site](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/overtone-app) says it all: BeautifulPeople is for, well, the beautiful people.

As you browse through the site as a guest, you will notice that there are rankings in the corners for the [beautiful account holders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dating-photo-ai). You can also check out users based on fellow users' [ratings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/partner-probability-calculator). Seeking your equivalent I see no problems with, but actually searching for another person who scores a ten just like you seems a bit much. BeautifulPeople obviously doesn't agree with the "love is blind" saying.
