Thenk God it's Friday
Article Abstract:
Many young Jews now feel distanced from their religion and from the traditions of older members of their families. Growing numbers are choosing to remain single or are 'marrying out,' and Jewish leaders fear that this is threatening the continuity of Judaism. For this reason, Connect, the dating agency branch of the Jewish Marriage Bureau, has started a high-profile recruitment campaign. It hopes to be able to encourage young Jews who have drifted to the fringes of the community to return to its centre and to promote marriage among single people who are already within the community.

'Bruno, what do you think about the women's movement?'; 'Good for them. It's important they do dance classes to stay beautiful.' (the reputation of the Latin Lover)
Article Abstract:
Italian men have long had a reputation for being attractive, charming and well-dressed but often unfaithful, childish and frequently womanisers. However, this must be seen in the context of Italian culture. Flirting is an accepted way of life and many women like men who have traditional manners. Italian men are certainly concerned with their appearance, but this is a genetic trait handed down from the practices of the Roman Empire. Many seem to be seeking a replacement for their mother, but some have a more modern attitude towards women.
