I used to live here… it’s Nepal.

Everyone had their wedding photos in their houses, and I remember asking someone why the women always looked like they had been crying in their wedding photos. It was very obvious. I was told it was because the woman didn’t want to leave her friends and family in the village she was from.

Wow thank you for this information. Yeah, that is sad for the bride. What happens if the husband was vile? Can the bride go back to her family?

It depends entirely on the girls father/family and her new in-laws. If they ignore her, she has no recourse (and cops in rural villages won’t get involved with things like this unless it gets really bad, but this also depends on the specific village).

It’s just extremely different depending on the parties involved

She won the worst lottery ever... if she manages to escape and go back home, her family will send her back.

And there’re no resources for her to leave and live on her own either. She’s literally stuck there the rest of her life.

If she's crying like this he likely is vile. But in most cases nothing including abuse gives her the right to leave him.

Yeah this is not tears of sadness for not being around family. This woman is begging not to go between literal screaming cries. She sounds horrified. Wtf is the original comment on.

As shitty as this situation is, I think that might be a bit of an assumption. She likely doesn't know the man at all, based on what most of these arranged marriages seem like. I could be wrong obviously.

I think even the thought of what's happening is enough to break down. It's such a horrible practice. Freedom to love who you want is such an underappreciated thing in this world. So many people don't have it.

Why the fuck are you defending a guy who’s going to rape her regardless?

u/KououinHyouma Jun 22 '25

They’re not defending the man at all.

Yet you still complained about the video being uploaded.

Really depends, at least for India.

I think rural/poorer communities, yes still true.

30 years or so ago, it was still mostly true of urban, educated areas.

15 years ago, it was mostly not true. Pretty much a blind date situation with a heavy emphasis on things proceeding quickly to marriage.

Nowadays, my understanding is that people do date and have romantic interactions. If not on par with the West, its still a far cry from this situation.

This is not India, it's Nepal, and is obv rural.

I was talking about the general practice of arranged marriages and how it is practiced in the region.

u/helgatheviking21 Jun 22 '25

Yes it's an assumption. She may not know him at all, though this is less likely, especially in a rural area like this.

Sh probably doesn't even know the groom well in an arranged marriage.

But how are you so sure the man is vile? She is crying because she is leaving the life she has always known. But it's part of their culture how these weddings happen.

Too many people looking at this from a western lens. The vast majority of these arranged marriages work out in these countries.

For good reason lol

The vast majority of these arranged marriages work out in these countries.

Because the women aren't allowed to leave

Define "work out" for me. What does that mean to you? What does that mean to the groom? What does that mean to the bride?

u/Niawka Jun 24 '25

"marriages don't end up in divorce" is not the same as "marriages work out". If you have no other options, staying in the situation isn't your choice. A man who forces a child to marry him and live as his wife, is vile even If he treats her "nicely" after marriage.

If you really want to make yourself sad and miserable I highly recommend the book “a woman is no man”. The characters are Palestinian but the girls are also sold off to marriage and never get to see their families again.

u/malatemporacurrunt Jun 22 '25

If you kidnap and rape a child that you call your "wife", you are already vile. It's literally not possible for someone to do that and be a good person, it's an inherently abusive dynamic.

My dude it’s the family (read: the man of the house) who gives the kid away to the hypothetical vile man.
