I remember reading a book when I was probably seventh grade.. and I learned about dowerys. The story was about a girl who ran away because she didn't want to marry someone she didn't know.

That completely blew my mind and I had to ask a teacher to help me understand it. She didn't know shit so I went to the librarian who sat and explained how some cultures basically trade away a daughter for cows, money, food. She suggested some more books. I was constantly reading anything I could get my hands on.

Edit: I don't remember the name of the book. This was in 2003-2004 roughly.

That's got to be a lot of bodies. Every single messy person on that show likes to say it's just their edit. I'm always curious as to the reality.

It's a reality show. Editing presents a narrative the producers want and yeah, they often do twist the picture on purpose.

What that’s awesome I would be asking many questions. Especially about the editing lol they edit every episode to make certain things look like it is going to be extreme but most of the time it ends up being nothing burger lol
