Grammar on your Dating Profile
Some are debating whether this is a “test” for the reader, but I’m guessing not. The old ‘your’ versus ‘you’re’ is a common grammar misstep, and one that many people will point to when determining intelligence, I would say. Put ‘their/there/they’re’ on that list as well.

Most online dating sites have localized page content that attempts to draw in those searching Google/etc. locally (e.g. “Toronto Jewish singles” or “Toronto Jewish dating”).
