Default Mail Order Brides

Has anybody else seen those "Asian Girls For Love & Marriage" ads pop up in the forum? What do you make of those? Does anybody here have 'hands-on' experience with such mail-order bride services?

I've always had mixed feelings about the whole idea. One the one hand it's the ultimate objectification of women, which I think is very bad, but then again some of these women might just end up in very happy marriages. Who are we to deny them that?

I do wonder about the terms, though. Is there a 30 day money back guarantee? Can you trade for another if yours turns out to be 'defective' in some way? And why the heck don't you ever hear about a Mail Order Groom service? More women are born then men, so such a service would make even more sense.

Such an intriguing phenomenon!

I would have to go with Russian, btw, Chinese are too small for my taste
