no idea. But sounds like a great social experiment. Let us know how it goes.
So what ya gonna ask them. Give them a few doozies. Like if you're a tree, what tree would you be?

LOL good question bob..... I think I'll use that one! I'm not sure what to ask, all I know is what not to ask 'what do you do for a living?'

Apparently that makes you shallow and a gold digger haha

I did read an article once on speed dating, women tend to ask question which establishes the wealth/security of the bloke like. Job, do they own their own house, who they live with etc etc.

But when you think about it, it does make sense. If a woman is planning to have kids and she'll be staying at home, she needs to know if a man can support her. So it does serves a purpose societally rather than being a gold digger.

I can't remember what guys tend to ask.

Seeing as there are only 7 minutes with each guy I will have to get prepared with some good questions. Don't want to waste time on stupid stuff. I like to ask a guy what his passion is.... and hope to hell he doesn't answer footy LOL

You should start a thread on questions you can ask. THat'll be fun.

I'm sure 7 minutes can feel like an eternity with some people.
