Interesting concept. I think a lot of people will have issues getting past how strange it seems at first.
What I am wondering though is, shouldn't they include at least a bit of personality stuff in there? If I were going to pay them to send sample to me, I would want to know all 10 of those samples are from someone I have a decent chance of getting along with. Because attraction is not everything.
I also think most people know what gender(s) they are looking for, and would rather not get get a set of samples that includes others. Like what is the point in sending two heterosexual individuals of the same gender eachother's samples? Or sending a homosexual individual a sample from the opposite gender?
A completely random sample of 10 seems inefficient. There should at least be some sort of simple optimizations involved. Unless I am missing something?
