Cringe-inducing

Is it me, or is placing an advert to find a partner for your daughter just a bit plain weird? Particularly when said daughter is 24, and – one assumes – perfectly capable of finding someone for herself should she want to?

I know I’ve a dodgy sense of humour, but I’d love it if the daughter were to turn round and say

Thanks for the thought, Mum, but actually I’m a lesbian and not interested in any of ’em.
