The funny thing is after saying the women are generally in their late 40's and 50's marrying younger, financially strapped Egyptians, this is the picture they put at the top of the article. Yeah right. Just an excuse to post some hotties without getting their eyes put out with a red hot poker.

Either that, or I've gotta do something about refining my poor Egyptian look. (Don't tell the Mrs.)

Such matchmakers, along with parents, often choose a wife for a young male from his own family, where the woman’s reputation, social and financial standing is clear. Cousins often marry, on the condition that the cousin is from the father's side, guaranteeing the continuation of the family name.

Typical Arab inbreeding. At least if they marry older Western women, they'll be more likely to have healthy children.

Where are these well-to-do, older foreign women coming from? And why would they want to marry penniless Egyptian jerks?

"Dad, if you try to force me to marry an Egyptian woman, I'll refuse, I'll just go back to goats. They smell better."

"No goats, Son, you have to marry an Egyptian woman. You simply have to do this, it's is your duty. Lie back and think of Egypt, like I did."
