Yes I Am Single lets site users meet a bunch of people online, access discussion forums, start offline meetups with members and buy a badge with the site's URL on it to wear proudly. It's a little less blatant than wearing a "YES, I AM INDEED WITHOUT A SEXUAL PARTNER AT THIS JUNCTURE", but the site's owner hopes the buttons become iconic enough that people will want to go up to other button wearers and chat.
"The idea is that people can wear the badge at appropriate times to identify themselves as single,"
site owner Evan Diacopolous says. "As the mood strikes them, they can take the badge on and off, say for 10 minutes when they go down to the supermarket," he said.
Hmm.
Would you wear a button telling people you were single?

no, that's retarded
Nope.
Lol, just no.
thats just desperate...
On the internet?! That's a terrible idea. I've had enough sketchy friend requests on facebook from guys I've never met without actively advertising that I'm looking for someone. I'd hate to see what would happen if I had one of those badges...
HAHAHHAHAHA sike.
no.
Heck no.
YES.
no i wudnt ware wun but it wud be cool if all the uther syngul men on the planit did ware em
HAHAHA no. Isn't this sorta like that Hawaiian-flower-on-your-ear thing? Except it's not so subtle.
Hell no!
a button to say ur single...thats just dumb.
And it tells people you're socially retraded and cant just go up to people and get to know them instead of letting it known your are single n want ppl coming up to you...like you are a prize to be had or something.
Only when I felt like I looked hot.
No. That's just weird.
give me the button first. Its lame and I would totally do it because thats how I roll.
Haha sounds kinda funny and maybe a little fun. :)
I wouldn't though, mainly because I am NOT single. :) :)
I wouldn't do it. I don't want random weirdos hitting on me. Sometimes, I don't even like putting my relationship status on Facebook, not because I am ashamed of being single, but because I don't want the wrong people to think I am available.
I wouldn't do that.
No. Makes you seem desperate and quite vulnerable.
no! are you serious? you'd look like some dorky, desperate, inept single person... if you're single, you can let ppl know in other ways than wearing a stinking BUTTON. bahaha... wow...
I'd wear one with an engagement ring.
Irony is awesome.
i think it'd be funny. hehe
No...that's why I don't wear a ring on my finger. It shows that I'm single.
deffinitely no. haha i rather meet guys the old way.
NO.
It's, like, advertising yourself. I don't like that.
