| | | | | Mail Order Brides Aren't What They Used To Be. by Mike Spillman | | | Mail Order Brides Aren't What They Used To Be.
If you are like me, when you think of mail order brides you think of something like this: A man picks up a cataloged at the local hardware store and thumbs through a few pages. Having found an article of great interest entitled "How to sup up you lawn mower in three easy steps" he stealthily slips the free publication into the bag with his purchase and drives home.
A few hours later he finds time to read the much anticipated article. After consuming the information with sponge-like interest, he sifts through the rest of the cataloged ready to catch the latest info. He finally gets to the small adds on the last few pages and notices something different. An add for "Mail order brides". Being a single man some 6 months now, he thinks to himself " Hey! Why don't I just order a wife!". So he dials the 800 number listed and goes through the usual questionnaire: Age? Height? Race? ...etc. Then places the order on his credit card ( a whopping $7,457.99 USD, plus air fair). He then meets his mail order bride at the airport and drives her home. Because she is made to order, they live happily ever after. Badda-bing, Badda-boom. Done.
Well ... not really.
This may come as a shock to some of you, but today's mail order bride comes in a slightly different package. The modern mail order bride places herself on display for the purpose of true love and matrimony. It is known, for instance, that Southeast Asian men are perceived by their female counterparts as being unfaithful. Besides, in today's society, we meet our mail order brides the old fashioned way - online! That's right! You get to meet her face to face, have several meetings, talk a lot and really get to know one another. You find out each others interests, likes, dislikes; not to mention all around general impression. Then if you both feel that twinge of excitement, you can meet for real and already feel that you know the person. Its great!
In contrast to the wild west tales of American lore where the miner orders his mail order bride from a hardware store catalogue, the modern way is much better thanks to the internet. So, I think its fair to say that Mail Order Brides aren't what they used to be.
