Wow..that was a nice walk back in time. I grew up "American-Italian" myself and lacked alot of that, rarely ever did the big holiday thing, I didn't know either of my grandfathers one passed before I was born and the other when I was (say under 6?) and I have quite a number of first cousin (some of them +20 years on me) that I've never known. Now that I'm old enough to appreciate tradition and heritage, I wish there'd been more of it in the family.

Thats a good point as well. you get to show your character first, then your physical side. For men with women, that can be an advantage. Gives her a chance to really talk to the man and see past his exterior. I know quite alot of men that are just as shallow. Which would be one of the points why I'm here too + very shy + I don't go to bars/clubs either...
