Marriage on Demand

Tonight for my Anthropology class, I had to write a paper on prearranged marriages (yeah I know, geek). It made me think, what type of lady would be chosen for me, if I had to abide by that rule. If I had to write up a dream sheet of approved qualities, this is the readers digest version of what it would entail; he would have, just kidding, she would be athletic, tall and slim, not the type that takes freaking four hours to get ready to go to dinner, a good friend, but not just a friend, and fun to hang out with. Additionally, she would be educated, maybe kinda dorky like me, and want to massage my feet every night. Haha Yeah right, I am just kidding. It seems these days, quality women are hard to find. They are either super good looking, but then they open their mouth and start talking, and that ruins it all, or they can have an intelligent conversation, but are rough on the eyes. MY EYES!!! You want someone that you think about daily and long touch her lips or breath her scent (ok, lets not get carried away, this is a family site, isn't it). It is not often you find someone that has both of those qualities. But then, isn’t that what everyone would want, best of both worlds. They should be someone you want to do things for, even when they say, “Farm boy, fetch me that pail.” And you say, “As you wish.” But hopefully her name is not Buttercup. Haha By the way, you don’t happen to have six fingers on your right hand? So for all you listeners out there, before you marry, chose wisely while you can, because in familias like those in India and many Islamic cultures, they are chosen for them. Y no apresúrese en el matrimonio, usted puede lamentarlo.
