I only have a few problems with the concepts there. I have pretty much opened up to different body types, although the main killer for me is that I can't date anyone that is extreme liberal or conservative... in fact, finding out that one potential woman was an uber-conservative (think Ann Coulter-type) was an instant turn-off...

I just hate political extremism... and apparently, it hates me too... I've been yelled at by both ends of the spectrum.

Anyone I date has to be only two things: Aspie and liberal.

The basic idea of the article was right, the more you describe your ideal partner the smaller the selection. Many years ago I filled out a form for computer dating and they asked about twenty questions concerning my ideal partner. Most of the answers were 'don't care' and so long as she a) had a pulse b) didn't smoke and c) wasn't built like a dump truck I was prepared to meet.

I had lots of fun. Tall women, short women, redheads, blondes, brunettes, liberals, conservatives, Indians, Brits, Finns, bank clerks, aromatherapists, airline stewardesses, cat people, dog people, fish people, spider people (that didn't last long) and there was one memorable evening with a fifteen-year old girl who had lied about her age.

The secret is to deselect what you don't like then take the rest. You never know what (or who) you might find.
