Okay, not all arranged marriages are toxic but they generally are and honestly, they should be banned. Here are some substantial reasons why they should be made illegal: https://www.mahevashmuses.com/culture-and-society/logical-reasons-why-arranged-marriages-should-be-banned-india/
For the record, I did not have an arranged marriage. Why am I clarifying this? Because some people will think I had one and then accuse me of being bitter. As if!
Anyway, here are some on-point memes to back up my point of view:
1. Forceful
2. Undateable
3. Shock
4. Sex Education(!)
5. Dowry
6. Forced Relationship
7. Man-child
8. Married For Money
9. Casteism
10. Rebound Marriage
11. Nosy In-Laws
12. Um
13. How We Met
14. Your Fate Is Sealed
15. Sexist Eligibility
16. Turning 25
17. Unnatural
18. Mommy Dearest
19. UGH
20. Listen Up
Now, don’t you agree that arranged marriages are seriously flawed and regressive? In fact, the whole ‘you have to get married’ culture in India is unhealthy. Marriage is a personal choice, isn’t it? If someone wants to stay single, self-partner, or marry themselves, why should anyone judge or pressure them to get hitched?
What is your take on arranged marriages? Please let me know in the comments section below.
“The reason why most cases of domestic violence are never reported is due to the social stigma of the society and the attitude of the women themselves, where women are expected to be subservient, not just to their male counterparts but also to the male’s relatives.”
Long time no see. Fun post that touched a nerve.
What these folks want are stepford wives, huh. And as for the women, some are golddiggers for sure but most of us get a raw deal
