And you also have shadchanim who will irresponsibly suggest a thin girl for a heavy boy, thereby taking another heavy boy off the market.
Some have also suggested that we convince boys to date girls heavier than them, but it is hard to overcome the natural desire of a man to feel dominant in a marriage, and being the heavier of the two contributes to that feeling.
However, it is clearly very important that we urge the shadchanim to make extra efforts on behalf of the heavy girls, and, conversely, consider thin girls only when dealing with a very skinny boy.
In this way we may somewhat redress the imbalance that has crept into the shidduch world.
I also plan to ask AZ to also go around to Roshei Yeshiva and ask them to sign a Kol Korei on this matter; as soon as AZ can get all the Bais Yaakovs in the US to give N.A.S.I. statistics on how many heavy unmarried girls they have among their alumni.
