LOL. I will give you the guys side of this. We are felt as a commodity on the Stock market. What is one’s value? IS the trend going up/down. What can he do for our daughter/granddaughter?
Case in point- Before I met my wife Aisha, I had gone to a wedding. The guys were separated from the gals.
I had to see my mother before I left the reception so I went to the women’s side. All I remember was mothers and grandmothers and other women (didn’t know anyone of them) asking me if I was single, what I do for a living, where do I live, and who is my mother? And pull women over to me to introduce them to me-I felt like a slab of meat in form of a pack of hungry animals. Stories that are funny now to tell my kids…..

Well a friend of mine got married by proxy over the phone with her husband (and his translator!!) of whom she never met and who was in another country! The contract was all in the Masjid and everyone was there except the groom and his family! There was a telephone and the contract was signed that way! lol The groom said he’d come to collect his wife as soon as he could which was 6 weeks later! No kidding!!!! Her father and the grooms uncle arranged everything and she’s still happily married 3 years later! All of her aunties were right!
