{April 1, 2009}   Bridegroom Wanted…

   Bride and BridegroomIn my previous post “ Bride Wanted” I wrote about the advertisement of bride wanted. In this post I want to write about the advertisement of bridegroom wanted. In those advertisements of bridegroom wanted have the requirements of bridegrooms are profession, education, social status and others. The advertisements give brief descriptions of women’s physical structure, such as height, color, hair, age, and their behavior like quietness, pious, family minded etc.  My question is that when the requirements of bridegrooms are their social status, education, and profession why brides’ requirements are their outlook, behavior and such things? Here where is women social status? Is they are only wealth of man? However, these disparity made by some people, media should concern about the matter.
