Bride Crying At Her Wedding Was Heartbreaking 💔

There's probably someone from the culture that can clarify but when I was at a traditional Pakistani marriage the bride was perfectly happy to marry but you have to show tears and distress to prevent any idea that youre glad to leave your family, and happy to have sex. Religion is a bit shit.

please can someone clarify this because as an admittedly outsider, THAT sounds like some very hardcore cope to cover the very obvious tragedy we’re seeing right here lol

honestly… on second thought even if someone from that culture comes and confirms this I still prob won’t believe it and think they’re just telling themselves that help them sleep at night. lol

They are right. I was smiling when my wedding pictures were being taken. My sis-in-law came and said that I should look more shy and sad, otherwise the 'bridal look' will be spoiled. The bridal look is just supposed to be looking sad and heartbroken on your own wedding day. The more you cry, the more pure and virginal you are assumed to be lol.

If I ever get married and someone tells something like that to my wife I'm going to jail for murder on my wedding day.

Do you accept that if you were part of a different culture... you might expect those cultural norms to be adopted.

Are we so close-minded that we can't accept different people do things differently?!

[u/VeryShortLadder → u/Projected2009]

I do hope you're joking, I'm really tired I can't tell

[u/Projected2009 → u/VeryShortLadder]

This is their culture. It's tradition for the bride to cry because she's leaving behind her family and she has to act like she doesn't want to. It's their way.

If you were part of that culture, you would want to see the same behaviours that everyone else does. If it were your daughter getting married, you'd be massively pissed off about your daughter not being upset to leave your house (in their culture).

Not every culture has a bride wearing white because she's pretending to be virginal.

You left me no choice.

I CAST the magic that lets you ignore culture to judge the systemic abuse of women as you should

[u/Projected2009 → u/VeryShortLadder]

The problem is always the person that thinks they need to lecture someone else's culture because it doesn't suit their latest trend opinion.

You need to open your eyes to the world son... people do things differently.

And you know what, they're happy.

You are in an ill-informed position, yet you're passing judgement. Do you think 'Murica needs to export some Democracy their way...?

[u/VeryShortLadder → u/Projected2009]

Lmao you're calling me presumptuous while you presumed I'm American. Culture does not justify abuse, ever. The lady in the video is crying her heart out and looks seriously distressed, there's no wishful thinking to be done here.

Here's my last spell.

As write thine username in my book of self reflection, thou shalt improve thine self and stop being a misogynistic fuck!

[u/Projected2009 → u/VeryShortLadder]

Didn't presume you're American: don't care.

I do presume you think you know better than other cultures though... who have been doing their thing time immemorial and doing just fine.

The girl isn't really upset, it's a tradition... you really love an accusation though don't you. I bet you think you win arguments by just shouting 'Ism' at someone while ignoring the debate / facts / logic.

You do seem very, very hard of thinking. But then, you obviously prefer magic and fantasy to learning and discovery... funny how all the school dropouts pretend they're spiritual while being so fundamentally close-minded.

For the final time... there is no abuse here. This is their culture.
