Mail order brides...

Some blokes in wealthier countries use a service to meet several women in poorer countries. If he finds one that pleases him, and she reciprocates, they may get married. Happy ending.

Then they usually live in his country. Sometimes the marriages work out. Sometimes they don't...

Often the women in these relationships are accused of being gold-diggers, who will stay married just long enough to secure permanent visa status here in the US, for example. Often the men in these relationships are emotionally insecure. Sometimes they are abusive to their new wives. In Australia there have been two high-profile murders of mail order brides in the last 3 years.

And even in cases where they are not malevolent, each of the parties involved may have unreasonable expectations for the relationship.

Legislators have proposed requiring background checks to all men who participate in the service to provide fair warning to perspective brides, or shutting down the industry altogether.

In many of these cultures, marriage is much more important than it is to us over here. Included with that is an inherent desirability of the people that want to leave of American men. They and their children will get a better, more stable lives. Is the want any different for any woman seeking a husband, conversely, any different for men seeking women with the same qualifications?

What do you think?
