SNEWS.CO.NZ - Jun 29 - Fast Impressions is organizing an event in Auckland where the women attending must be size 10 or under, while the men can be any size they like. Fast Impressions say they're just catering to men who like slender women, but women here say it's discrimination. “That's the nature of dating and what we do is we simply meet that demand and put on events that we know our members want to go to,” says CEO Justin Parfitt. He says the event, scheduled for July, is almost full.

This controversy will result in more business for Fast Impressions, ultimately. A good PR move. Even if it does alienate a portion of the userbase. This service runs many more niche dating events, but the news doesn't cover that.
