摘要
现在该回归包功办婚姻的做法了。
我们已彻彻底底地尝试过整个约会之事,现在我们要面对现实:约会并不十分奏效。人们变得不是结婚太早,就是结婚太晚:令人垂涎欲滴的女人们(呃哼)单身得太久以至于自己已经感觉不自在了,而远近各地的孩子们也被离婚搞得伤痕累累。我没亲身经历过,不过,过去的情况肯定更好一些。
It's time to go back to arranged marriages.
We've tried the whole dating thing, and let's face it: It's not working so well. People are getting married too young and too old, highly desirable women (ahem) are winding up1 single for longer than they find comfortable, children near and far are being traumatized2 by divorce. I wasn't there or anything, but things must have been better before.
