Mentioning your religion helps you, but, paradoxically, it helps you most if you have no religion. We know that’s going to piss a lot of people off, and we’re more or less tongue-in-cheek with this advice, but it’s what the numbers say. These are the religious terms that appeared a statistically significant number of times. Atheist actually showed up surprisingly often (342 times per 10,000 messages, second only to 552 mentions of christian and ahead of 278 for jewish and 142 for muslim).
You’ve tried everything- speed dating, online dating, prison dating, kidnapping- and yet you still can’t find that special someone willing to put up with your personal peccadilloes and love you for the superstar you most certainly are. Well, in another WWJD public service, I’m here to tell you that it just might be about your…religion. Yes, no matter how much you might think otherwise, being a born-again, fire and brimstone, y’all-are-going-straight-to-Des-Moines-Hell Christian isn’t exactly a recipe for getting laid…much less finding true love.
You may be significantly more “Jesus-y” than the next person, and you may in fact believe that you’re doing 105 MPH in express lane to the pearly gates…but members of the opposite sex seem to find the overtly religious to be seriously unsexy. So, if you want to be more desirable and spend less time waking up alone, give some thought to becoming an avowed, militant atheist. Hey, like what you’re doing now is working??
You can thank me later. ;-)
