Slenderwoman<p>In my work I sometimes order genetic analyses, and I’ve been told to be more liberal with these if the patient is an Ashkenazi Jew. (Some relevant gene variants are more common in this community than in the majority population of my country.) I wasn’t familiar with the term, and figured it was a group size-wise similar to the Hasidic community - some 130k people worldwide. It took me watching <a href="https://icosahedron.website/tags/JewishMatchMaking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>JewishMatchMaking</span></a> to learn that I was off the mark by a factor 100. A reminder as good as any to stop making assumptions when ignorant on a subject and Google instead. </p><p><a href="https://icosahedron.website/tags/ProfessionallyRelevantThingsRealityTVTaughtMe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ProfessionallyRelevantThingsRealityTVTaughtMe</span></a> <a href="https://icosahedron.website/tags/TIL" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TIL</span></a></p>

While TikToks declared him a role model to emulate, conservative pundit Ben Shapiro singled him out for only wanting to <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/date" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>date</span></a> women with liberal values.

David Bloomberg<p>I never knew that Jewish Matchmaking involved so many different aspects, like… eyebrows! I guess everyone has their preferences, and we saw that this is definitely an important one for Dani!

David Bloomberg<p>On the Netflix show Jewish Matchmaking, Dani was surprised that her date, David, didn’t have the good manners to pour her drink when he poured his own.
