AI IS FINDING YOU A GIRLFRIENDMatchmakers were women who specialized in arranging marriages, acting as intermediaries between families to find suitable partners. Their role was crucial in many cultures throughout history, especially in societies where arranged marriages prioritized social, economic, and familial compatibility over romantic love.
Across different eras and regions, these women had specific names:
-
In medieval and Renaissance Europe, they were known as matchmakers or celestinas, like the character in La Celestina by Fernando de Rojas.
-
In China, the "Mei Po" (媒婆) played a key role in arranged marriage traditions.
-
In Russia and Eastern Europe, "svakha" were women specialized in finding partners for young people.
-
In the Jewish tradition, "shadchanim" were professional matchmakers responsible for arranging marriages within the community.
Their work wasn’t just about pairing couples; they also negotiated dowries, ensured compatibility, and made sure the marriage was beneficial for both families. While their role has faded in many societies, matchmakers still exist today, especially in religious communities or cultures where arranged marriages remain a common practice.
Now, let’s ask AI to find you a girlfriend—let’s see what it comes up with and if you like any of the options.
