Blank seems like a safe bet, especially if you want to avoid people who are searching on specific body types.

Kinda wacky match.com user:

“My cousin, concerned I was moving to Denver without knowing anyone, bought me a Match.com membership,” said Ms. Phelan, 55, who moved from Sun Valley, Idaho, to Denver in 2008 after divorcing the year before. “I bet her a trip to Prague I could go on 100 dates in 100 days.”
Ms. Phelan won.
“A Velcro flow chart helped me keep track of which Michael, David and Robert were in favor,” she said. “I would sometimes double-up the dates and have dinner at the same restaurant. I assured the owner that I wasn’t the world’s oldest hooker. I told him I was dating. They always saved me Table 14. At the end of the 100 dates, I’d met some charming guys, made some good friends and had fun experiences like flying a jet and riding a camel, but I couldn’t find the romance I was looking for.”
Shortly after her dating streak ended, she was sorting through profiles of men who had looked at her profile but had not contacted her. As the faces flashed by, something clicked. She saw Mr. Chapple, who had blue eyes and tousled red hair. His profile said he owned an investment firm and lived in Boulder, Colo.
“This guy looked cute,” she said. “I wondered why he didn’t write me. I checked his preferences: no lawyers, not taller than 5-4, no blondes, must downhill ski. I’m a 6-foot-tall blond lawyer who doesn’t alpine.” Unabashed, she e-mailed him: “Why didn’t you write? I’m perfect for you!”
Now they're married

Guess I have to kinda begrudgingly thank OKC for initially introducing me to someone I've been seeing for a couple of months now and who I like an enormous amount. Our actual OKC-centric interaction was brief and took place almost two years ago, but I'm certain that we never would have met via any other means. And she was a 98% match, so they're doing something right over there.

― mookieproof, Thursday, 11 April 2013 02:37 (eleven years ago) link
Not lately, I guess. I've been internet dating for over 10 years tho and in past episodes when I was younger and my profile probably telegraphed how emotionally available I was, I could go on multiple dates a week with people I might have actually liked, always be written to & responded to. Now it's rare for me to even be interested in someone's profile and men I find attractive ignore me. Boo hoo, who cares.

Oh how adorable! I got straight-up negged yesterday! A message that simply said "slightly disappointed". From a very unattractive 50 year old married guy, eurgh.
If it was a joke, it was a miserable failure of one!

three Brigham Young University college students set up a social media experiment to test how many men would show up at a frozen yogurt shop to meet a pretty girl they’d found on Tinder, but knew nothing about.
Wait, isnt that college a hardline hardcore mormon school?

My usual response to nice messages from men I don't want to meet is 'Hi, X. I don't think we'd be a good match, but thanks for getting in touch and good luck on the site - we all need it'. Yesterday I got a reply that said 'wow how rude. cheers'.

It works fine most of the time - either I don't hear anything more, or occasionally people write back to say 'thanks, you too' which is nice. I think I'm being featured somewhere or something, because I'm getting loads of emails from very low matches - this guy was one of them.
