Make sure you read the fine print on the return policy



"Normal wear-and-tear..." :ph34r:
I've nearly rolled a rental car. :D

Reason for product return -
"I married her because I don't like 30 yo women. She's 30 now."



By the time she's 30 the warranty may have expired... :D

This is just an example of how pathetic that men have become.



Hasn't the mail-order bride business been around for a long time? I'm not sure this patheticness of which you speak is anything new. ;)



I have old newspaper clippings from the 1900s.
Family news, deaths/births, significant events.

During the homesteading times, you got 160 acres if you had a wife. One of the men spoke of his wife and how lucky he was. He had purchased a mail-order bride from "back East". "A lot of them men bought Indians or disreputable women."

Yeah, it has been going on for a while. Seems like in a 100 years, there would have been improvement.

I don't know what the statistics are for mail-order brides, but I do know that arranged marriages have a higher success rate than those made for love--and by success, I don't just mean outcomes but overall satisfaction.

You would think. And there was a more practical reason for it back then; men did the settling, then "sent back" for a wife. The ratios of men to women on the frontier made it so that even the best weren't going to find a wife. Now, since the vast majority of our country has roughly equal numbers of men and women, you just have to wonder. [:/]

Speaking of places where the ratios aren't equal..This reminds me ... did anyone watch the reality TV train wreck a few years back that was Bachelorettes in Alaska? Damn, that was some fine television.

First you need to keep it in mind that these ladies are in prison and most for good reason.



For the really desperate you can even pay to your picture on the convicts' application forms. :D
