A friend of mine casually emailed me the other day. He told me how he was coming to New York and how he was wondering if I'd introduce him to some of my lady friends. Though not quite the Emma Woodhouse matchmaker, I figured that I'd happily oblige. However, it was the sentiment that followed that utterly and contemptibly bothered me: He finished the email with names of girls that he had "noticed" on my facebook and without missing a beat I immediately noticed a trend. They were all skinny; conventional; blonde. My initial reaction was an eye roll, then I eye rolled some more.
