Hi gavra-at-work.
I am not so sure whose head is in the sand, as you so delicately suggested.
In case you missed it. The problem I had said in many posts regarding shudduchim is attitude. Attitude (hashkafa) is the cause of this problem, and we should all be embarrassed. Attitude, while not a tangible thing, is still a noun, albeit abstract, and it exists in concept. Most people are expected to grasp abstract nouns.
It is not necessary for me to bring back all my points from all the various posts I made on this subject, but keep in mind, that primarily the problem with this is the attitude about two OTHER people determining if they are right for each other.
And if I had one point of rejection to that disgusting organization that stands out for me, as of late, it is the idea that a young lady of 23 has to have a value and price tag placed on her, for that very sole reason, (to the tune of about a thousand dollars) in comparison to someone 21 or 22. That, to me, is the definition is disgusting and no solution at all. It is a deli counter approach to the sanctity of family life. I suggest this organization is eroding the sanctity part of family life.
Also, 22 versus 23 has NOTHING to do with compatibility. It then becomes a situation of supply and demand; proving my point precisely. Disgusting!
It is a disgrace that our boys should be allowed to shop for a 21 year old over a 22 year old, and charge the 22 year old extra to be in the parsha.
Perhaps reread my reaction (as if there is nothing better to do..lol) and you will see a clear point of view addressing the problem.
gavra-at-work. I am very passionately against this organization, and your personal comment implied either apathy or ignorance, when you offered nothing in return.
