She's not my type?
That doesn't make sense. You can see what she looks like before you decide to date her. Since when do men give a fuck about a woman's personality, or anything else for that matter? The only thing that matters is how she looks, and having sex with her for the minimum amount of time, money and hassle.

Nope. Not on blind dates.
In that case, it's just a big waste of time and money to go on a date when you aren't even attracted to her. Dump her on the spot instead of leading her on to think she has a chance.

Eh, taking an ugly chick out beats losing a few friends. But, I haven't had to worry about that in years.

Plus, some blind dates work out. Some.
I think it's far more insulting to date someone you have no interest in. I would definitely prefer if someone would be honest with me from the start, so I could not waste my time trying to fuck them when it's never gonna happen. If I had friends who disagreed with me over this, I wouldn't want them as friends anyway. Being honest and considerate of others is important to me.

It's cowardly to not fulfill a promise, and if you say you will you go, you go. I have never had an issue of going out on a blind date whatever the circumstance may be, and you're off on this one as if you commit to a date (blind or not) you commit to it.
I guess at first sight you could go with "Um. Er. Hum. Welll...Hm. Lemme think... This isn't going to work out, but hey let's get some drinks" and you wouldn't be a douche, but you would still be somewhat (and that's a stretch) considerate. But nixing a date isn't a good idea. It could lead to an awesomely awkward situation or a grudge fu@#.

Is sex seriously the only reason you ever date?
I am a man. It doesn't matter how I answer your question. You already know the answer.

In other words, it's a white lie. I guess that could work for some people.
I wouldn't put myself in that kind of situation anyway. I would meet someone to see if I want to date them, but I wouldn't decide to date them before knowing anything.
