Posted by Alex L. on Mon Jun 19 18:25:57 2006, in response to The Jewish Woman Shortage, posted by SilverFox on Mon Jun 19 17:09:52 2006. Are you in need of a non-religious female of Jewish background in her mid-40s? By some strange co-incidence, I happen to know two that fit the description. AFAIK, both are currently unattached, have "real" jobs and come with no prior relationship "baggage" (ie, children). While neither are super-model quality, they don't suffer from the "two-bag-syndrome" either. On the down side, they do come with 20+ year-old friendships with me. |

The last jewish girl I liked always sat next to me in mgmt class senior year. :(I think what we have here is a diversification issue possibly. You had your Irish, Italian and jewish neighborhoods. Everyone was excited to find someone of their own kind and such. But with the mixing going on now, as in subdivision exurbian living. Outside of a school situation, how do you meet people of your ethnic preference? If I was looking for Irish women, it's not nearly as hard, but it's not as easy anymore either. As far as "white" diversification is anyway. I don't believe other groups will have this issue anytime soon. It's a culture or social engineering thing that just sort of happened I'm thinking. Moreso in places like Philly and Baltimore where people were "pushed" into the 'burbs. Haven't tried Miami, but until I'm super-rich, I won't be living there soon anymore. |

I've never heard that Jewish women are more likely to marry outside the faith than are Jewish men. Maybe it's possible - for example, look at blacks, where the intermarriage rate for men is vastly higher than for women - but I probably would have heard something if that were true.My LIRR/NYCT blog |

Let's face it, You want to marry a Jewish woman. Very well. attend services and get into social circles where such women can be found. From circulating at the Oneg Shabbat or Kiddush to joining a Jewish singles group, there are opportunities for someone who has the intellect and sense of humor you exhibit here. GO FOR IT. The shul is the place to start. |

Hispanic women aren't interested in white men, we're not masculine enough.In some Hispanic circles, white man = green card/stable income and home. Black men may be more masculine, but racism would point the women towards white males. Just as an example, my family isn't hispanic, but my great aunt forced my grandmother and aunts to find the whitest men that they could find. Besides, Hispanic is a very vague catagory ranging from white Argentines to black Dominicans to mulatto Puerto Ricans to mestizo Mexicans. I'm still amazed the Census came up with such bizzare classification. It's like lumping the French speaking peoples of the world and calling them the "Gaullic". |

Posted by Mitch45 on Tue Jun 20 05:22:45 2006, in response to The Jewish Woman Shortage, posted by SilverFox on Mon Jun 19 17:09:52 2006. Maybe you should not be looking solely in the city. I went to law school on Long Island and now live there and can tell you that there are many non-religious Jewish girls out here. I went to law school with a lot of non-religious Jewish girls and many of them were very nice and pretty too.I disagree with your assessment that 50% of the Jewish women are religious. That number is far lower. I read somewhere that of the approximately 5.5 million Jews in the entire United States, only about 1 million affiliate themselves with the Orthodox movement. As someone on the inside looking out, I'd say that even assuming that you're figure of 500,000 Jewish women is correct, less than 100,000 of those would be religious, probably far less. As someone who exclusively dated Modern Orthodox Jewish women before marrying, I can tell you that if you think finding a nice Jewish girl is hard, finding a nice Orthodox Jewish girl is much harder. Yet, I managed to find one so I think you can find what you're looking for too. |
