A New Feature To Dating Sites - Matching DNA?

Many dating sites over the years have come up with more complicated and detailed questions and better matching algorithms to attempt to make better matches for those on the site. One possibly debatable type of matching that is being considered is DNA matching as well. Is this something that could really happen in upcoming years?

The theory is that more compatible DNA will make a better relationship at least biologically. There will be more physical attraction, less cheating, possibly healthier children, and continued attraction through the relationship due to pheromones and body odors that we all at some level tend to be attracted to whether we realize it or not. It supposed to be a very exact and scientific way of letting two people know that they are more compatible for each other.

Does this take out the romance?

Our lives today are quite a bit different that anyone's life even 30 years ago. The way people meet today is a bit more complicated and happens in ways now that no one ever dreamed of. Someone could argue that keeping a relationship alive during the day with text messaging doesn't seem that romantic, but it's a reality that many do on a daily basis. Technology has been able to enhance closeness and feelings for many people.

Could DNA matching be yet another way? It could be if that is important to two people who want to potentially be together. Obviously the other elements of the relationship must be there in order to have any lasting, healthy, and satisfying relationship between two people.

There could also be privacy concerns. Sending in your unique DNA to a private for profit company that is online could be potentially problematic if that information was released to third parties or the security was broken. Your DNA is so unique to you that it getting out could be an issue of privacy.
