全球首个丑八怪相亲网成立 创办人称其为丑人福音

　　The world's first dating site for ugly people has been launched in the UK August 16.

　　TheUglyBugBall.co.uk specifically excludes "anyone who is overtly pretty or attractive". Instead, it accepts only those who "weren't blessed with great looks, or, more bluntly, people who have "fallen from the ugly tree and hit every branch on their way down"。

　　According to the site's straight-talking creator Howard James, it offers the "aesthetically challenged" a much-needed service。

　　"It's a sad fact that up to half of the UK is made up of ugly people yet amazingly nobody has ever thought of providing a dating service for them. Just because they don't look

　　like Kate Moss doesn't mean they don't have a lot of love to give and we're scooping up these people and offering them a glimmer of hope."

　　Almost 1,500 members have signed up since the site, which is free to join, went live。

　　"Our site allows people who aren't attractive to engage in the dating game without fear of ridicule for being ugly or excessively overweight," said James。

　　据英国《太阳报》报道，8月16日，世界上首个专为丑八怪而设的相亲网站在英国成立。

　　该网站名为丑虫舞会，杜绝任何明显可爱或者有吸引力的人。相反地，该网站只接收那些没有绝代容颜者。或者，说得直白点，丑虫舞会只要那些从丑陋树上跌落并一路磕磕绊绊的人。

　　网站创建者霍华德-詹姆斯称，网站给那些美学挑战者提供他们迫切需要的服务。

　　不幸的是，英国人中一半人都是丑人，但是让人吃惊的是从没人想过为丑人办个相亲网站。他们不像凯特-莫斯并不意味着他们内心没有爱，我们把这些人聚集起来，给他们一线希望。

　　该网站注册免费，自创办以来，注册人数已达1500人。

　　我们网站让那些没有吸引力的人群参与到相亲活动中来，他们不用担心因为丑或者过于肥胖而受到嘲笑，詹姆斯说道。
