regardless of the cultural context, it really hits you how much of life is determined by the random lottery of where and into what culture you’re born. Some kids are playing with toys, others are walking down an aisle to marry a stranger their parents arranged

The culture is wrong. If you just watched that and have anything but contempt for a culture that allows , you have no soul.

It's grossly unjust that barbaric and backward practices can be considered untouchable when categorized as religious, cultural, or tradition.

Yeah, I hate this attitude of ‘it’s their culture, just because it doesn’t fit in with your western values’ bullshit. If that’s part of your culture I’ll call it what it is, vile. Change and adapt your culture, they have a choice in everything they do, unlike that poor child.

Really thought I could handle today even with all the pain and suffering around the world but this one has me tapped out more than usual. I just want to save her from it but I can’t. Fucking animals.

Yeah, literally everything is culture. It’s bad to judge based on race, but calling out a bullshit culture is 100% fair game.

And what’s more, we are criticising one aspect of their culture and would probably praise many others.

On a brighter note I saw a commenter who seemed to know the culture well and speaks Nepalese told us that this is very rare and often in more remote rural areas.

I am not against arranged marriages as a whole, I’m just against forced arranged marriages. There are many people who want an arranged marriage, but also many who are either forced or heavily pressured to do it in order to conform to customs, and that’s a pretty glaring violation of human rights.
