I agree. Matchmaking is an artform and Patti believes that there is a match for every person, even if you are eccentric. I disagree with flit who says that the show's premise is being a millionaire means that you are a "good catch." If you have watched the show that is an absolutely false statement.
If anything Patti coaches many of the rude, obnoxious or self-involved to help them find love. Patti also terminates many millionaires who are not open-minded, communicative, or able to compromise, which she views as necessary for love.
I also disagree with Corine's statement "I find it very offensive that this women thinks it is ok to sell women as objects. The men on the show feel they can buy a model type." As previously stated no one is being bought or sold. Women AND MEN are screened to be introduced to a wealthy person looking for a relationship-A RELATIONSHIP. It is not prostitution or an escort agency, which is also why if you have sex you are BOOTED. You are totally missing the point based on your reactions to what the people on the show look like. You can't see past your own reactive feelings to appreciate the show.
For those of you who don't understand the concept of matchmaking or tough love STOP WATCHING THE SHOW! What Patti Stanger does is no different than what happens to the women on HOW DO I LOOK or WHAT NOT TO WEAR? Do you all hate that show to? Stacy london tells women all the time that they look beat and busted and will never find a mate.
The fact of the matter is that finding a mate is a proactive process-it doesn't just happen when you least expect it.
