Who doesn't love Steve Harvey on Family Feud? He's the perfect host with a great sense of humor and his off-the-cuff comments are probably part of what keeps the show cranking out episodes. Harvey also likes to dabble in various other business ideas and his latest one is rather interesting: Harvey seems to be happily married to his third wife and would like nothing more than to help others find their soul mates. He also thinks that women especially, need some help in understanding how to be more "dateable" in the eyes of men so he thinks that his new dating site will be a great resource.
"Delightful" suggests that it will help you to find love and keep it, for $30 a month. Harvey recently told Forbes magazine while promoting his new dating venture,
"Delightful will cater primarily to women, but also to men with a womanly interest in settling down. For women, there will be advice columns on topics such as "how to become more dateable. Men, meanwhile, need tutoring in the fine points of chivalry, like always walking in between one's date and the street to protect her from traffic. "It's sad to say, but the divorce rate in this country is so high, there are a lot of young men out there, quality men, who've never been told, 'Hey man, this is the proper way to treat a lady. We're not looking for one specific person, per se. If you're in a period of your life where you don't feel like you need a protector, we can probably find you a guy who doesn't want to be a protector."
Perhaps one of the best questions about this whole thing is whether or not Harvey should be pitching anything love related. Either you can see him as a normal guy that got it wrong a few times before finding love with his third wife or he is an admitted serial cheater that can't keep love to himself. The concept of making women more dateable is probably not going to sit well with the ranks of women who believe that men could use exactly the same lessons.
Do you think that creating another dating website to help people to connect is a good idea and ultimately a great potential resource or is Harvey opening himself up to backlash and negative commentary? Tell us your thoughts in the comments below!
