Take me out is a Dutch program in which a guy sits in front of 30 girls. While he presents hiself, these girls can press a button; that means they are not interested in the guy. Once the presentation has finished, one of the left girls (usually none, sometimes one, rarely more than one) “gets” him, and she take him out. If more than one is left, then the guy chooses the girl. If none are left, he goes home and that’s it.

While the program is very funny, my wife made a good point the other day: the opposite game would not be possible. In fact the girls push the button while the guy says what he likes, what he does, and so on. Now imagine the opposite: if 30 guys would judge one gal, they would just look at the external parts (so to say), and never, ever push the button if they like that, no matter what the gal does or likes. Ain’t she right?
