eHarmony sent a marketing research survey invitation to each of its Compatible Partners registrants on July 22, on July 24 and on July 27. Wow, they really want you to answer a survey, do they? Since it is so important, for the record and for discussion here are the survey questions, verbatim.
(What do you think of the survey? Do you think it will help them be any less clueless about gay relationships and dating as they are now? Post your feedback.)
Dear Brüno,
