Here is something I don't get. When you talk about the dating option, I like the idea of getting access to a dating site from within a porn site, but it seems like you take it off the rails here.

You said: "He will build a Dating site section paysites can put into their sites and give to members as part of their membership. If members want to contact other people they sign up at a cut price. Maybe a small charge to send each email, costs need to be worked out. We can advertise on our sites and promotion "Free Dating Site Membership."

So how exactly is that free? It is free to look, no doubt, but not free to actually use. I can say this much. If I joined a porn site and they promised me a free membership to a dating site when I joined then I found out I still had to pay more to actually use that dating site I would be pretty pissed off. This is just another upsell and porn customers have been seeing them for years.
