Frum Bridalplasty? On Shidduch Dating and Bean Counting - by Rabbi Zev Farber

URL: http://www.jewishjournal.com/morethodoxy/item/frum_bridalplasty_on_shidduch_dating_and_bean_counting

Responding to the debate between Yitta Halberstam and Rabbi Shmuley Boteach about the crisis of shidduch dating, the article suggests that the problem is not frum women's looks and a need for more makeup and plastic surgery, nor is the problem frum men's shallowness and a need for more spiritual depth. Instead, Rabbi Zev Farber suggests that the problem is shidduch dating itself, and the tendency towards check-listing qualities matchmaking leads to; the solution proposed is that the frum world come up with a way for religious Jewish single men and women to meet and socialize and find their own mates.
