Not sure what to make of this.

While the generations-old market has been changed by technology and the economic downturn, it’s still one of the main ways families are introduced to one another in a country where they are economically and socially discriminated against.

You're not sure what to make of human slavery?

Is that what it is though?
Or is it just another form of arranged marriage?

For the price, they could teach their women how to properly apply make-up.

WNB - would not buy.

These guys are buying someone who doesn't really love them and will betray them.

It's far from slavery. The girls have the right to refuse. The article said the only cases of "forced" marriages are between low-income families. Really, it's a dowry - the would-be groom and his family have to come up with money to offer the family for their daughter's hand in marriage. The only seemingly "unfair" or "ancient" thing about it is that the families can refuse to allow their children to wed if one or the other doesn't prefer the match.

I for one think it's fucked up to judge cultures on such traditions, provided they aren't barbaric and it doesn't involve the harm and indecent treatment of innocent people.

[Herr Lucifer]

And if she loves you today, you think then she cannot betray you tomorrow? Not just that, a woman can both love and betray you at the same time. Love does not conquer all.

The down payment is cheap, but the tab will end up being half your salary.

Well lets not forget that California State University study that showed arranged marriages between strangers are just as successful (if not more) than "love-based" marriages:

http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2012-...tisfaction

That passionate "desire" that newly weds (or even new bf/gf) share fades quickly anyway. The US does not practice any form of arrange marriage and we have some of the worst divorce rates in the entire planet. I don't think 'negotiating desire' plays a role in this. It's more to do with culture. Marriage is obviously a big deal for these people. It's not accepted that women have constant options and can jump in and out of committed relationships as they please. They even value virginity. It's a whole different ballgame than it is in the West.

Yeah, unfortunately this is a common feeling in the west. Everyone who doesn't do what i think is normal has an inferior and barbaric culture.

[BortimusPrime]

Seems too cheap to me. You'd end up with a defective one with a weird pussy or something.

[HeyPete]

I was thinking if that happened here.

You'd walk in and there'd be menu, if you will, of prices.

18 year old, slim, pretty and feminine = $1M.

39 year old, career-focused, feminist cunt type = 25 cents.

[Herr Lucifer]

$1M?

Fuck that noize!

I'm pretty sure they can only marry Roma guys. Plus those mfs are inbred like a mf. Have seen a couple Gypsy chicks in Russia that I would dick down, though I would certainly bathe my pubic area in peroxide.

The chick in Taken reached $500,000. Figured inflation has moved it up.

[Kona]

I dont think you guys realize how much filipinos do this.

When I was around 18 some guy was trying to get my dad to marry me to his daughter. He wanted 3500 from my pops. Plus, we had tocoverall the immigration.

I know quite a few guys from highschool got arranged wives. My relatives still in pi do it too.

Aloha!

[Saweeep]

I suspect that we in the Western world are the exception to the dowry-culture, not the rule.

On a global scale.

[General Stalin]

^ this is actually quite likely. The West's "progressive" ideals make it the only culture where marriage is more novelty than an important and necessary step in life. All over Asia, Africa, South America, and many more traditional parts of Eastern Europe - family is considered extremely important, and the unity of man and wife is an important and fundamental part of society that brings the whole fabric of family and community together.

It's beautiful, really.

[RoastBeefCurtains4Me]

$3500 in the Phillipines was decent money back in the day, probably a couple year's pay, not to mention the immigration expense. $350 in EE today is very little in compsrison. If the goal is to get a little something from the future son in law to prove he's worthy, that's a low threshold.

[RBerkley]

The woman on the far right wearing the red skirt looks like a MILF more than a "young bride"..Taking into consideration the propaganda article piece which shames men who engage in arranged dowry-style marriages, there is a MILF-looking woman in one of the alleged "young brides".

Plus, some of those chicks need to learn to use make-up properly. The good thing is that they are thin, late teens early 20s, and look a bit feminine as compared to an empowered Anglohag.

Legally, WB the three most left chicks and have them as my harem on Roosh Island away from the feministe zones, but the MILF needs to pay me dowry before I give her the love machine.

[CactusCat589]

Not every person in the picture is a bride lol, just those three. The out-of-focus lady on the periphery is one of the mothers or organizers of the event.
