MEET VENUS

Some author guy once wrote "Men are from Mars. Women are from Venus." That's pretty much crap. If you look at the attributes of Mars and Venus, there are plenty of Mars women and Venus men.

Mars: Courage, war, fighting, power, beating of enemies
Venus: Love, romance, sex, friendship, beauty, money, art

Rather than trying to figure out how Mars and Venus can get along and date (like our friend Mikey), we'd prefer to know who the hell killed Cupid? He's the beautiful offspring we set forth to bring lovers together. Hey, funny story about that: I, Venus, once got soooo jealous of another goddess, I sent Cupid to make her fall in love with the ugliest entity he could find for her. So when you see a couple together and wonder "how did THAT happen?"... sorry. It was my idea.

Fast forward through our mythology and enter 2009. Cupid seems to either be missing or dead, because we live in a (waste)land of internet dating, random hookups, and Why-On-Earth-Is-This-Person-Talking-To-Me? So if you've dated online, gone through ridiculous encounters, had your heart broken and/or you want a good laugh about dating in NYC, we're at your service. Hope to see more of you.

xoxo,
Venus
