This program is going to fail, for the reason outlined in a couple of sentences, that are possibly the most important sentences in this entire article. "...which is a blessing, since gossiping about dates is more fun than actually going on them." "We’re doing shots! This will be great B-roll!" I scream... Arranged matches are fine and have been working out fairly well for hundreds of years. But when one of the parties is more interested in making some sort of production out of the experience than in finding an actual relationship, the program is going to fall flat. They would do much better getting female participants on a volunteer basis, preferably not from a large metropolis, who are more interested in finding a relationship than in making a "B-roll".

>> who are more interested in finding a relationship than in making a "B-roll". ^^ THIS. There must be some pretty lonely guys out there. I can only hope the more genuine ones learned their lesson after it ended. Best example: The poor fellow who left early to work for Yahoo at 8:00 am. He may have only understood the ethics that he had bought into after it ended. Women who try and make anything off this crap are selfish to the point of degrading those around them. They're really horrible people to be around, let alone to sleep with -- because they're too self-absorbed with the money and free ride to factor in the precedent they're setting for the kind of interaction that's socially acceptable around potential mates. DO WE REALLY want a society where people who work hard, are forced to compete financially to have an attractive mate fly in, do B-rolls, get high, and to demonstrate what a cold and mechanical interaction they actually want? Women: How would you like it if this was the kind of world you had to live in to find affection from a man? Pay $1,000 to have him come in and show you that your money, work, and desire for affection is just as worthless as anyone else's. Because THAT is what your actions convey. I think I'm with my grandparents on this one: These women need to learn to treat others exactly how they expect to be treated. Otherwise nobody can be their friend, foe, or lover. Because when we start pretending that relationships and affection can be bought -- we won't be buying real affection.
