No-kay Cupid
ELEANOR MARGOLIS CAN SEE WHY FED-UP STRAIGHT WOMEN JOKE ABOUT “GOING GAY”
ELEANOR MARGOLIS
Torsos everywhere. Hairy torsos reflected in mirrors. This could be high art if it wasn’t, well, the exact opposite of high art. “My mouth is so wet,” one such torso says to my housemate.
My housemate is one of the best straight people I know. She’s smart and hilarious. And deserves so much better, dating-wise, than wet-mouthed torsos.
I am, in part, to blame for the torso influx. I persuaded her to make an Ok-Cupid profile. I even helped her write it – doing my very best to make sure all the torsos out there know she’s better than them.
