    Maybe for you and your culture but in most of the world it’s not how life is. Inlaws are a big part of marital life and without having your parent bride-hunt for you, you could easy understand the appeal of knowing ahead of time that the person with which you start to build a relation already get along with your parents and you get along with theirs.

      Cool, give me a single example where parents picking their kids marriage partners and women have equal rights.

      I couldn’t find one when I looked yesterday.

        You’re not getting my point. You’re equating parent chosing dates with forced mariage upon the girl.
        I’m saying that parent being involve in the chosing of a parter is the way it is done in many place in the world and it does not equate to unhappy or force mariage.
        You do realise OOP is a man? If someone is force against, which there is no mention or suggestion of, it is the guy.

          You’re not getting my point.

          Or the example I asked for …

          I’m saying that parent being involve in the chosing of a parter is the way it is done in many place in the world and it does not equate to unhappy or force mariage

          Where? Give me an example

          If someone is force against, which there is no mention or suggestion of, it is the guy.

          And he’s complaining about the lack of women being forced into this…
