1. I'm a bit confused by "family", does this refer to incest, or just arranged marriage? 2. Surprised to find "had no cash to pay pizza delivery guy" and similar situations is not significant enough to be on the chart. It seems movies have lied to us about this. 3. What's with the bar scene suddenly becoming more effective? Is it all those new date rape drugs? 4. This whole thing is misleading because there are more singles/virgins/shut-ins than ever before, but they aren't counted. Some of the things that appear to be increasing might actually not be. They could fix this by adding "bought her from wifu-pillow.com" to the chart. |

This is, indeed, a sad commentary on life outside of Freehold. The green line, "met in church" is low and going lower. Really, the only safe place to meet a genuine Christian is in church. We have a few single members at Landover Baptist. Hint, hint.

I am a Catholic good Christian priest, and I met my life partner in my diocese in the late 20's. He was one of my altar boys and it was instant love at first sight. My Bishop helped us cover our wonderful relationship until he was 18 and now we are happily married (in Argentina) and I can carry on my work here in the U.S. Bless Jesus!

Really — you should know better; yet, you continue to celebrate sin!

I have met a lot of women during the China Flu. When women see you without a mask they automatically know you are strong and can be trusted. You need to get out and talk to people. Not the ones hiding inside; they're the ones dating online and playing video games together.

I seem to recall I met my wife, Mrs. Hutchins at Church. We were introduced by the Pastor. She had wide hips and a full bosom, good for birthing.
It is funny, I can never remember what her first name was, though she responded to 'Woman!!!' She bore me many sons and unfortunately a few daughters. A few were born dead and we put them in mason jars, setting them on the mantle as a reminder of her failures. God took her a few years back, I believe. |

There really are only two proper ways for a man to meet his future wife--to meet her at church, then arrange the marriage with her father, or to rape her, in which case the Bible tells us that asking the father is no longer required:
If a man find a damsel that is a virgin, which is not betrothed, and lay hold on her, and lie with her, and they be found; Then the man that lay with her shall give unto the damsel's father fifty shekels of silver, and she shall be his wife; because he hath humbled her, he may not put her away all his days. -- Deuteronomy 22:28-29 Of course, rape is a kind of fornication, and the Bible forbids fornication, so we don't recommend this method. Which is why all girls and young women need to dress modestly, lest they tempt some man into sin. This is as true today as it was in 1940, 1840, and any other year you can think of that ends in 40 since the time of Christ Jesus. |

Yeah, we ask for respect and attention, if that's what you mean. Have you heard the saying, earn a woman's trust and she will give you her heart? That and buttered croissants. I also like to pop a bit of gouda and pecan in my batch, and so far, no complaints from the gentlemen! |
Re: How couples meet, 1940 VS today
I don't know why croissants would need butter. They're 90% butter already. Have you tried juniper berries?

Re: How couples meet, 1940 VS today
Is this how Slavic peasants met one another in the 40s? Would that be during the barrel-ageing or after sampling the finished product? I'm not sure whether peasants have Online hangouts: perhaps it remains the same today? After all, smoke signals are a type of "web" and could still be used —— as long as it doesn't involve singing.
I suppose bagpipes calling across the glen or alpenhorns mooing from one alp to another are something like smoke signals and just as romantic. Maybe these should be added to the graphic? Depending on location I think they'd be more-or-less horizontal lines near the top of the chart, around the 40% mark. |
