Mail Order Brides - A Promise for a Better Future

103 11
These days, people are moving beyond their barriers to fulfill their dreams.
Thanks to the world becoming a global village and the internet helping out, you can get whatever you want from any part of the world.
So if there is anything that you want to get from your immediate surrounding, don't you worry because now the whole world is your play ground.
This is true in all spheres of life and even marriage.
This opportunity of crossing one's own barriers has ushered in the system of mail order brides.
What is this new way of getting married? Who are these mail order brides? Why would people look for something as important as life partners from a distant land without knowing the other person well enough? Well mail order brides are those women who advertise themselves on the net looking for not just a one night stand, fling or a temporary affair, but a life long commitment of marriage.
If a single man can not find himself a suitable bride then he can look up these websites and see if they can find anyone suitable or of their choice.
And if they happen to come across any such profile they are free to contact these marriage brokers in form of the website.
However there is an interesting sociological find in this system of marriage.
It has been found in these marriages, an overwhelming number of grooms are from United States of America, United Kingdom or Canada.
This means that most of them hail from the richer side of the world.
On the contrary, the places of origin of the mail order brides are mostly from the underdeveloped side of the world.
This has led to an interesting enquiry towards this phenomenon of mail delivery marriages.
This helps us get a good look at what the mail order brides are looking for in their future husbands - a promise for a better life.
These women are mostly not just victims of poverty, but also victims of exploitation and torture.
The parts of the world most of these women come from are Russia, South East Asia, China Philippines and the like.
These countries further have a very strongly rooted system of male patriarchy.
This system subjects the women particularly poorer ones to extreme torture and to a state of being second class citizens.
Obviously in contrast to these exploitative men of their own culture, the men from the other part of the world are projected to them as not only just economically better off but also as kind and sensitive.
These men, not being a part of the extreme male patriarchy of their region make them quite liberal and therefore symbols of freedom.
In these developed countries women are believed to be equal enough to walk side by side their men not be behind them, a prospect quite inviting to these women.
Not to mention the economic status of these men lure these women into becoming mail order brides.
At the end of the day who would not want a better life? So what women generally look for in this system of marriage is a hope for a better life.
