yah, i've noticed that too. and not only noticed but have been suggested to do so. i can barely raise myself, 'et er pakas', someone else's doughter... hay-huy. but then again, if you look from another angle... those poor kids (boys) have been hearing this constant bashing of the American way from their parents who came here and seeing all this American openness have become ultra-protective. they (boys) are just trying to do a good deed as they see it; they are just trying to save our Armenian girls from becoming something very 'bad'. i know, i know, this is just ill. but then, everything in Armenian Diaspora is ill.... like a half-ripe apricot taken from its tree and put on apple tree, that is bound to grow to become a degenerate.
