Dr. Dato’s Brief:

The post talks about the online dating scene in Denmark where it has been estimated that one in four couples now routinely find each other on the internet, reported by MetroXpress newspaper. Probably the ‘cold climate’ maybe :-), only kidding, although it would be worth examining the statistics and say other countries like Iceland. The advantage of online dating is that you can pre-screen all your dates before you commit to a date, so the time and effort in dressing, looking good and going to bars can be saved?

Anyways, the facts from this post suggests that the stigma associated with online dating is disappearing altogether, so says Morten Wagner founder of dating.dk who started his dating site in 1998.

University of Copenhagen researcher Charlie Breindahl says that you get to discuss the heavier issues related to dating before taking it further. Also, the real physical attraction, however, doesn’t occur until you meet in person, said Breindahl.
