Subject: Any Available Jewish Men Out There??
Date: Fri, 25 Dec 92 17:44:51 CST
Distribution: world
Organization: Iowegia Public Access Usenet/UUCP, Clive IA USA.

This is my first post on this BBS...finally decided to try it and 
see if it actually works.
My name is Shelley Kitsis and I reside and work in Des Moines, Ia.
For 3 years now, I've tried every available resourse I can get my 
hands on, in hopes of meeting an eligible single Jewish "Mensch"!
I've tried the singles cruise (met some nice people, but 
unfortunately, no fireworks!), put a personal ad in a midwest 
Jewish Single's magazine....received quite a few responses and 
ended up jetting off to almost any major U.S. city in order to 
meet these men, but again, no go! I'm 33 years old, have never 
been married, raised and still observe in the conservative branch 
of Judaism. There just aren't any Jewish eligible men here in 
D.M., or close by! I'm about ready to give up! Any suggestions from
anyone out there??!! I know that eventually, I will probably have 
to move to a city where there is a larger Jewish community...but 
please don't tell me to go to New York, Chicago, Los Angelos! I've 
visited all 3, and I could never live in any of them!
"I'm surrounded by Christians", (an appropriate day to post this
message, huh?!), _Please_ someone help me!!

But, Pooh, while chains do add that special romantic touch, they are
hopelessly old-fashioned.  Here on soc.singles we're with-it people
up on the latest technological developments--the current plan is to
coat Aahz generously with the perpetually sticky adhesive used on
Post-It notes.  Then you'll be able to stick him to any convenient 
surface at any angle you desire--best of all, since the stuff stays
sticky forever, you'll be able to re-use him as often as you like.

	I think you have definitely hit on something.  Because Jews _ARE_
in a minority in the world (let alone the U.S.), there is either a
concious or sub-conscious drive to retain the religious line.  Personally,
I cannot even imaging having kids that aren't at least culturaly Jewish,
but having kids that are totally non-Jewish from having a gentile wife
would really give me guilt like you wouldn't know.....

If your money was in your father's commodity fund, then perhaps they should

I never thought it matters but...sometimes...*sigh*.

I will go out with a shorter man, be it a 'date' or a 'going out
after work with a co-worker' or 'friends'.

I've done it a lot. (Being 5'9", I'm taller than most women.) Funny
thing is, tho, sometimes it does bother me. 

But it's NOT because of him. 

It's because sometimes I get into a "I'm-so-tall-and-fat-and-bulky-and-
clumsy-and-big" mood, and I want to be with someone BIGGER so I'll feel
better.

And in that mood, I'm self-concious about everything related to my 
size. And I'm as uncomfortable standing next to a smaller woman as
I am standing next to a smaller man.

Hmmmm...I have a hard time reconciling this with the people of the female
persuasion that I know--though men have a socialized tendency to use 
displays of feigned sexual aggression (commenting on waitresses' body
parts, for example) as a means of jockeying for homosocial dominance,
women generally seem to be more interested in the subject and in doing
it.

At the parties I go to, most of the time when largely male conversational
groups form, they tend to talk about computers, sports, cars, and their
toys; groups of women are more likely to talk about people and sex.  
Among the heterosexual couples I know, it's almost invariably the female
member who complains more about "not getting enough" and that her partner
is insufficiently lusty.  Indeed, in the relationships I've been in, the
sex drives of the women I've been involved with have steadilly ramped
upwards with no sign of stopping as long as we were involved.  (Fortunately,
it's never been too hard to persuade me to cooperate.)

I'm not picking on you in particular, Pete, perhaps it's just me and I'm

I dunno, maybe they are good filters, they would certainly filter
