It seems likely that at least one of the authors or reviewers saw the OkCupid post, possibly to the extent of influencing the research itself. Yet not being published in an peer-reviewed journal, it's not cited. The OkCupid data set is far more extensive and includes longer-term reactions, so it would be useful to see it in citable form. In lieu of a peer-reviewed paper, I think the blog post should be cited. [EDIT: Some communities use lack of peer review as an excuse for not citing. Of course it's "allowed".]
