Jewish Head Croppers?
The Jerusalem Post has been running ads from Jewish dating sites for quite awhile. Maybe I just haven't been paying careful enough attention, but I was a little surprised when today's JDate banner was the first I can remember with a picture that didn't crop, chop or otherwise obscure the top of the man's head. I wonder why JDate suddenly decided to break the long-standing policy of kippah-ambiguity?
Truth be told, they didn't just break the bare-head barrier. They also shattered the bare female shoulder and chest-to-breast taboos as well. What's the world coming to?
Here are Canadian Singles and New York Singles sites in case you want a baseline.
Still, given the choice, I'll take this Jewish form of head cropping over the "militant Islamist" form any day.
