Asking for a friend: Would you date this man?
Ladies and gents of Metafilter,
I have a dear friend who I think is totally awesome, but apparently no one on OkCupid agrees with me. He is having a hard time meeting up with anyone on that site, or getting anyone to respond to his messages.
As I said, I think he's cool. I read his profile and think, "I would totes date him!" But I might be biased. Are there things on his profile that are hurting his chances?
In case it's not clear from his profile, he is a straight male into ladies.
Finally, any other not-totally-obvious tips for getting dates are welcome.
Thanks, guys!

This post was deleted for the following reason: This is totally not okay. If you need to paraphrase your firend's OKC profile, fine, but please do not do this to your friend. -- jessamyn

Plus, describing one's self as a "hooker with a heart of gold"? Not sure where to go with that.
Maybe this guy has a quirky sense of humor that you know well but it doesn't play well to strangers on the internet. Online dating is a marketing game and you need to brand yourself well to appeal to people.
