Ladies, why can't we be honest?

Today at the good ol' Olive Garden was slow as hell. Yeah, I worked less than 2 hours, so I'm home with not a lot better to do than tell you a little story. A server, whom I'll call "Alice", at the restaurant invited a friend to the restaurant to meet a fellow cook, and recently single guy whom I work next to all day long. My friend, who I shall call "Tom", recently broke up after a long 2 year relationship. He's a very handsome half black half white guy, very tall athletic has a good sense of humor. He's also relatively intelligent. So "Alice" tried to set him up or at least introduce him to her friend. The problem was, Alice's friend was NOTHING like the type of girl PHYSICALLY that "tom" usually dates. He usually dates skinny white chicks who are at least semi intelligent and can hold a conversation. We'll it didn't go over well. Alice got very mad at Tom, when she asked Tom what he thought of her friend, and he said "well to be honest, I don't find her attractive at all". And that pretty much ruined things from there.
Tom was unfortunately a bit to blunt and honest and it offended Alice. What I didn't know until after they stopped arguing was this was strike 2 for Alice. It was the second time she'd tried helping Tom out, but it was the second time she'd gotten his type completely wrong. The first girl was apparently even harder on the eyes and was more like a female version of this guy apparently: 
So Tom wasn't very happy and Alice wasn't happy. After about 30 minutes they started going at all over again because I guess Tom felt bad he had offended Alice when he knew all she was doing was trying to help. However, Tom, stuck his foot further down his throat when Alice asked "well what do you honestly think of me? Would you go out with me?" And unfortunately Tom told the truth and said "No, you're not my type". Well that pretty much was the last straw Alice stormed away upset and with in 30 minutes, every server in the whole restaurant had heard the story, and gossip was flying everywhere about how "shallow" Tom was.
Now, I would have been a bit more tactful (hopefully) in this situation, but can you blame Tom for being honest? Isn't that what Ladies want? I am man, I am married, happily, but I married a wonderful WHO IS MY TYPE! It's why we're married. I find her sexually appealing, funny, great personality, we have similar interests, not to mention we're both Latter-day Saints. Call me shallow if you want, but I have a type. TOM, has a type, why would someone trying to help him get upset if it's THEM who just doesn't get it?
Ladies what do you want us to do? Lie to you?
I appreciate honesty, but you've also gotta be tactful, haha.
No, Tom shouldn't lie, because he shouldn't have to suffer through more dates just to make Alice feel better. She needs to build a bridge and get over it and Tom should hurry up and find someone on his own before Alice brings someone even worse! (Who has a hairy mole on their face.)
hollywood tells us what we pretty much already know:
men are convinced they deserve women much younger and hotter than they are
