Interesting interpretation of "choice"....

[@johnmguzman7491]

Could it be true that 'choice' could be interrupted differently in different countries or in different cultures?

Wow so dating was still big in the 60s and 70s. You need to back to maybe the 30s to find a time where dating in the west was not a thing. Very interesting.

[@RAH.910]

Arranged in a way you’re meeting like a blind date and you’re given a choice to reject the person or marry that person

[@michaelhunter3101]

This expulsion of those seen as unfit individuals from marriage and breeding creates a stronger society. Yes it may seem brutal for those that haven't any choice in their limitations, but it doesn't allow for a "lowering of the bar" when it comes to successful families. Here in the US we have a 67% fatherless home rate and it shows.
