Abstract: Abstract It has been suggested that speed dating was invented by an American Rabbi interested in helping Los Angeles Jews meet each other. “Customers” had 10–25 four-minute dates, after which they had a binary question: yes or no. Two yeses meant a date and a more traditional meeting was arranged.
