“Meeting people to date isn’t always the easiest. But luckily for white people, they might be able to meet their soulmate, thanks to the help of white people dating site Where White People Meet.

Since erecting a billboard advertising the website in West Valley City, Utah, the matchmaking site has seen an influx of both criticism and support. The site also looks to be headquartered in Utah, with its address being a North Salt Lake P.O. box on the contact page.

For those interested in joining, there’s a $4 membership fee. It’s heteronormative, with men only able to search for women and vice versa. But it appears to let these ivory-interested lovers get a little non-vanilla, with “married” profiles being able to search for another person for an extramarital rendezvous. And for those looking for possible suitors that share more than just their racist ideals, there’s groups you can join. It appears that the only one available at the moment is a group for hunting enthusiasts.”
