Am I a Gastrosexual?
The working definition is this: (Noun) One who use their culinary skills to impress their friends and potential love interests.

Perhaps I'm a  borderline case. Should I still enter?
Yes, and please do.

Men and women can apply, right?
Yes, we reject the notion that seduction is a one-way affair. Ladies and gentlemen please apply.

Is this a dating service?
Most certainly not.

What do I get if I win?
Each month, we'll select one "Gastrosexual of the Month" and feature you and your kitchen prowess on The Splendid Table radio program and Web site.

When I heard "gastrosexual" I thought of ...  something else. Are you sure you've got the right term?
Gastrosexual is a neologism, based on the slang term "metrosexual." As such, it has nothing to do with one's proclivities in the bedroom, but more of a fluency and pride in one's skills in the kitchen.
