Some people speculate that Milwaukeeans get hitched at a younger age than people do in larger cities, making it difficult for unmarried 30- or 40-somethings to find a partner.

Recently, three friends who were frustrated with the lack of unmarried men in their age group turned to the Internet. All three found the guy they were looking for through various matchmaking sites, but in all three cases, he lived in another city.

What's the deal? Is there a lack of available, appealing men in this city? Sound-off, Milwaukee!

Last week's question: Should Red Arrow Park open for ice skating before freezing temperatures occur?

I'm lucky if I make it to the rink once, so I couldn't personally care less.

It would be nice to have the option of ice skating in the fall and even the spring. Mayfair used to have an indoor rink and it was nice. The Pettit Center rink it just too big and impersonal.

I don't think it matters. Wisconsin is filled with people who hate winter and don't seem to get out much in the cold weather, myself included.
