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.
Or the example I asked for ...
Where? Give me an example
And he's complaining about the lack of women being forced into this...
