A brand new website, “thefitfinder.co.uk” has been launched in York. The website’s slogan is “witness the fitness” and the facility allows the user to both “add a fitty”, and “find a fitty” that they have seen in a certain university area.
For example, when Vision searched for a candidate in the London School of Economics Library, we found this “fitty” on the website: “Female, Black hair. Sexy girl: wanna see how hung my parliament is?”
The website is the invention of UCL Computer Sciences student, Rich Martell and has spread like wild-fire since its inception last month. Martell explained that he first got the idea from his friends claiming that, “When we’re revising in the library we all text each other when we see an attractive girl. That planted the idea in my head for a website.”
Although the York section of the site was launched just last weekend, a number of “fittys” have already been added, one post reads: “Main Library (Silent room) Female, Blonde hair…Gorgeous green eyes – she totally gave me sex eyes”.
A second year PPE student, Tom Ibbetson, told Vision: “I think it’s going to be a massive hit, it’ll be really good to sift through when I’m bored in the library, or frustrated by revision”.
YUSU Welfare Officer, Ben Humphrys, however has a somewhat different opinion, venting, “This website is bizarre and…if I’m honest, slightly creepy, it reminds me most of secondary school kids perving on classmates/teachers.”
On a more serious tone however, Humphrys added that, “If anyone does feel harassed by being the target of one too many tweeter’s wet dream they should get in touch and we’ll look into it.”
