I'm asking because everyone in the family is left-handed and I would not want her to feel left out.

I'm asking because two of my kids are pyromaniacs and we gotta be careful around girls who light candles in case they grab the candles and play with them

Do they eat borscht?

I'm only asking because my son is allergic to the color purple and people who have borscht tend to have purple hands.

Does she wear eye makeup?

I'm only asking because my son is a big environmental activist, and he could never marry someone who's dumping single-use napkins into our overburdened landfills.

Was she the head of a committee in her high school production?

My great-grandfather, zt"l, put in his will that no one in our family should ever sweeten their tea with processed sugar, only pure honey. Every generation has honored this, and it is very important to us. We could never consider a kalla who did not drink her tea with honey. I'm sure you understand.

Does he know how to sleep standing up?

Our dear son is a ben torah and will need his wife to put up the sukkah. That will involve her climbing poles. We know she will understand if we do a practice drill before any engagement.

I'm only asking because current research shows that a fashion sense develops early in life and should be well-honed by the third grade. Any fashion faux pas in the third grade would be a clear indicator of compromised fashion sense later in life. As appearances are extremely important to us, that just will not do.

Does she use band-aids if she gets a cut?

Only asking because in our family, pom pom hats are reserved for the kittens only. If she wore it as a baby, she may expect to put one on her own baby, but our kittens might get jealous or confused and we just can't have that.

Did she ever wear sunglasses as a child?

Does she know how to ride a bike?

I'm asking because my son wants to learn and with the current economic crisis he won't afford a car.
He has a bike and gets around that way.
We expect our couples to visit twice a week and I'm sure if she's an eishies chayil she won't have a problem biking with him to visit us. It's only a 2 hour bike ride each way.
