Complimentary DNA testing kit (Courtesy Singled Out)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\u201cWe believe it will solve a lot of issues in the dating world,\u201d said Elle France, the site\u2019s co-founder and a professional matchmaker based in Rancho Santa Fe. \u201cDNA is accurate. It\u2019s not just for the Jerry Springer Show.\u201d<\/p>\n
France, who runs the site with her friend, Jana Bayard, said the DNA test focuses on people with dissimilar immune systems and serotonin levels.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s based in science,\u201d she said. \u201cIt stems back to a test they did a few years back where women would smell stinky T-shirts and decide which person they liked best based on the smell.<\/p>\n
\u201cInevitably, the shirt each person liked the best was the person they had the most chemistry with,\u201d France said.<\/p>\n
France said using DNA is a drastic difference from other dating sites. \u201cEHarmony personality tests tell you what you want to hear. Everyone tries to be perfect so they look good.\u201d<\/p>\n
Though the SingldOut website is already a few months old, it\u2019s too soon to see if there are any success stories. However, this new method of matchmaking is already getting a lot of media attention.<\/p>\n
SingldOut is available nationally, but France believes it will have special appeal in San Diego, especially with the young, upwardly mobile professionals populating the Downtown area.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe cater to the upper tier of people, people who are serious about finding love,\u201d France said.<\/p>\n
Setting singles on the path to coupledom has been a lifelong dream of hers, even when she was pursuing a successful career in the HR department of the No Fear clothing brand.<\/p>\n
\u201cLove is a necessary thing,\u201d France said. \u201cI know I had that niche. I felt shows like<\/p>\n
\u2018Millionaire Matchmaker\u2019 were more about entertainment. Matchmaking has always been an interest of mine throughout my life. After quitting No Fear, I decided to do it.\u201d<\/p>\n
As promising as DNA may seem toward finding a perfect match on a spiritual, physical and cellular level, SingldOut is still limited to straight people.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe science isn\u2019t there for gays yet,\u201d France said apologetically. France is convinced that spitting into a tube can lead to love, but admits she has no need or desire to use the product.<\/p>\n
\u201cI already am compatible with someone,\u201d she said, laughing.<\/p>\n
