This is obviously a great idea, and that's not because there are not already too many dating sites out there, but because it gives people a plausible excuse to get together about, and round, fundamentals.
In a world debased of meaning, where people go to great lengths as if to avoid addressing the fundamentals, we need a good pretext or alibi to reengage more than ever.

Here three women attend a reclining maiden. One, dark of skin, stoops to embrace the stricken lady, and the two lock gazes. Is it a love game, so often played by the gopis, where, in Krishnas absence, they pretend to be him? Has the dark-skinned girl been chosen to lighten the heart of the love-sick girl by pretending to be Krishna coming to the bedside of his beloved? """ Repository: The San Diego Museum of Art |
