[[The Bay Area Express is a local free weekly newspaper that covers
entertainment, people, art, issues, etc. in the San Francisco Bay Area.
They have a personals section but have split out the ``Looking for
someone special ...'' ads into separate sections: "Mathes: Women seeking
men," "Matches: Men seeking women," "Matches: women seeking women,"
"Matches: men seeking men," etc.  These plus the personals are one of my
favorite parts of the paper (does this make me a "muffin"?)  Here are
some excerpts for your enjoyment:]]
