    I'm an overseas born Chinese, our family left China during the late 1800th, I got married with a cute Japanese Gal.
    During courting, my father inlaw interview me and ask about what's my future plans, and my reply was, I try my hardest to take care of your daughters future and take care of the rest of my futures wife's family the best I can. Not anytime during the discussion did the inlaw mention anything about dowry. The only thing I provide during the ceremony was paying for the wedding funds, which wasn't bad.

    When I got married some 20+ years ago, I already had a house and regular car,. I paid a dowry of $1500, which over several months, was returned to me in a surreptitious way. For example, my mom in law gifted me a pair of pants, and there in the pocket, I found $200. Same with shirts, baskets of fruits or food. I fixed my car and found that the bill already paid. I am so lucky I had a loving mom in law. She passed away some 10+ years ago. Today I am still happily married and growing old together.

      I would not blame the women because let’s be real their culture heavily still prefer men and many baby girls were killed/sold/abandoned/possibly trafficked/given up to adoption. So of course the women will fight back and prioritize themselves because in a culture like that the men and even their own family aren’t reliable in protecting them and their potential daughters. The way some of them speak sounds intentional in making themselves too difficult to marry just to avoid marriage altogether.

The point is to actually refuse outrageous stuff like this and marry anyway. If a girl won't marry you for these reasons, toss her aside.

      Because in societies that traditionally didn't have retirement pension, sons took care of their parents while the daughters left the families. So a bride price is a way to offset the cost of raising a daughter without the return of her taking care of the aging parents. It is really simple, but the bride prices got inflated because 1) people could only have one child so if they had a daughter then they wouldn't have anyone to care for them in old age and 2) as a result of 1) people chose to have boys and killed off their daughters creating an imbalance. And when you have less of something, that something becomes more valuable because of its scarcity. They're just reaping what they sown.

    I've always found the idea of dowries so interesting. In western culture, the dowry usually came with the wife. The point was that the bride-to-be would have funds to furnish a house, but it was the groom's responsibility to provide a house.... and I'm talking super, super old days here.
    In my current country, western cultures don't practice it but african culture practice "labola" which is essentially a dowry to the bride-to-be's parents. The idea is to pay back the cost of raising the girl, sending her to school, etc. but recently the expectations have also been increasing.
    It's interesting because different cultures have different ways. It seems that our current path is going to lead to more arranged marriages worldwide as people are not naturally pairing up much anymore.

    After I heard one comment from a mother, I would not blame those girls too much even I don't like this. The mother of a boy told her son "I think she has some problem. This is why she didn't ask.... ". So ridiculous.

      Most men there want marriage but can't afford dowry. Some men buy women trafficked in from neighboring countries out of desperation. It is so sad

    Imagine a scenario of an Indian man marrying a Chinese woman and both families demanding dowry from each other 😂😂
    Jokes aside, the problem of dowry has drastically reduced in India as the Government has made it a criminal offence to demand dowry. Probably, CPC can do the same.

    • @m0nz13
      @m0nz13 9 місяців тому +2

      Usually couples like such are very modern and don’t request for dowry. Most Indians and Chinese don’t marry interracially unless in a mixed/liberal environment, as they are traditional.

    I'm Chinese American and went with my parents to visit their village. Match makers were frantic to pressure my parents to get me married. We were called "金 山 客", so the dowries and demands got ridicules. I always carry US $2.00 bills in my pocket. I said "Yes" and handed the mother a $2.00 bill. A riot started. Never heard so much cussing and swearing. The cabbie driving us away and my parents were crying from laughing so hard. Bad joke I guess.

    I have seen videos of Chinese men increasingly going to Africa and pay lobola(dowry for a wife in Africa) in places like Uganda 🇺🇬. So I just predict more mixed marriages.
    Some also go to Russia 🇷🇺 and other Asian countries as well.

    Guess I shouldn’t be surprised that selling girls is still legal there. Though didn’t expect the girls to be so enthusiastic or the parents to act as their pimps.
    On your taxes is this considered a livestock purchase or entertainment expenses? 🙄

      lot of countries do this it's not strange once you leave the USA and the EU to see this. This happened to someone we knew in the USA she got sold off because her parents business had financial issues. Got married off to an older man when she was 16. The man was in his 30s

    • @williamstearns7490
      @williamstearns7490 9 місяців тому +3

      @@Alejandra-cv7rj I am well aware it still happens in places outside the West. A childhood friend Ahru, whose family was mostly still in India, was married off to some dude in India the summer before we started 10th grade. There playing with my cats one day, then just gone…
      My comment wasn’t about it happening anywhere. I just didn’t think I’d still be happening in a pseudo-Marxist place like China. But I’ll say this, at least many of the girls in China seem pretty ok with being sold like chattel at least, so long as they fetch a good price.
      Which is certainly a damn sight better than being whisked away, at an age when you are still playing with dolls, to be sold off and married to some unknown pedophile in a place where women have zero rights and are expected to just be a baby making slave. Some places are positively medieval and it makes me feel violent.
      Which adds to my incredulity when I hear about girls in a nation where they aren’t held in bondage, actually dumping guys they had been with for years, and had hoped to marry, simply because they and their parents didn’t get a good enough price at the negotiating table. Really?
