Dear Poll: Would You Let Your Parents Pick Your Partner?

In many cultures, the process of arranged marriages still takes place. In fact, they are not always as archaic as the Western world makes them out to be. While parents and close family members may assist in choosing the eligible men, many families want their children to make the final decision.
Obviously for most of us, the notion of letting our parents pick whom we should or shouldn't date seems like a silly idea, but why should it be? Our parents know us better than anyone else and they are truly looking out for our well-being so ladies, let me ask you, would you let your parents play matchmaker?
