I have friends who are Afghan who have had arranged marriages so this led me to be curious to ask, why does this practice still persist into the 21st century?

    Sorry mate. You don’t seem very bright. If you look back through this comment thread you’re the only one talking about dating and whatever. I said it’s subjective several comments ago.

      Yes you did, and when you said that, you implied that “arranged marriage” could also mean getting help with dating. You never mentioned dating explicitly, but how else do you think your original comment should be interpreted?

      You’re getting personal now, which is a telltale sign for someone who has no arguments for the point they are trying to make.

        You’re dramatically overestimating how much I care what people on Lemmy care about arranged marriage.
