1 The Net is just as good as church when you're hunting for a spouse. Seventeen percent of online daters have turned virtual winks into marriage or long-term relationships; that's 3 million people — the same number of lovebirds who've met in God's singles bar.
2 Thank goodness love is blind — or gullible. The typical bachelorette's profile claims that she's 20 pounds lighter than the average American woman. And the average bachelor's profile says he's more than an inch taller than the average American man.
3 But don't sweat it, guys: Women don't care about size — remember, we're talkin' height here — as long as you clock ducats. A 5'8" beau can score as many dates as a 6' gent if he makes $146,000 more a year. And the ladies are equally attracted to 5'2" men who make $277,000 more than Mr. Lanky.
