Have you ever seen a more archaic way of thinking?

Question

http://www.marryourdaughter.com

I can't believe sites like this exist.

Look at the ages of these girls.

Answer 1

wow, i can't believe it either.

i'm just gonna keep clicking links, i know there's a Rick Roll in here somewhere...there's gotta be.

Answer 2

Wow, that site made me cringe.  I don't get it, you can't offer to erase back child support in exchange for a step-parent adoption because that would be considered "buying a child" but you can sell your daughter into marriage at 13?

Did you see the testimonials?  "the guy is okay but I'm so happy my parents got enough money to go on vacation and buy a new car" or the ad that stated she had been raised from birth to serve her husband?  Um...I thought we learned and moved past the opinion that a wife only exists for her husband.

That website is heartbreaking...some people should never be allowed to have children!

Answer 3

IT IS NOT REAL. Check on Snopes

Answer 4

I think it's ok, they have permission from their parents, so they could get married anyway.  It's better if they will be married instead of pregnant and not married.  So many teens are pregnant and not married.  And it's not pedophiles doing it but it's other teens making them pregnant.

Answer 5

Looks like something out of 19 th century.

Answer 6

If someone can't figure out that that's a joke, I worry who will care for you when you're no longer attractive enough to have men do it for you.

Answer 7

If I found my info on that site, I'd sue my parents for character defamation.

Answer 8

Holy c**p! (And I do mean holy...did you notice how many of the "ads" referred to God or Christianity?)

Seriously, WTF?!

Answer 9

I couldn't look.  The link alone disgusts me.  I feel bad for the daughters.

Answer 10

its not real. . . . . but if it was I would be surprised

Answer 11

Omg is that a joke?

That's worse than the russian mail order brides. Way worse, they are not even old enough!

Answer 12

OMG!!! Is that even legal?!?! Those parent's should be taken out and shot! That is so incredibly offensive!

Answer 13

This is in America?? My god...either these people want to go to jail or this is a dummy site set up by the feds to trap pedophiles....I hope it works. Pedophiles should just flat out be killed.

Answer 14

I took a look at this site and it seems pretty REAL...it says  "Marry Our Daughter"  is a site for Christians  who are following the Biblical Tradition of Arranged Marriage...LOOKS MORE like following the Age-Old Tradition of Capitalism to me...They actually have a PRICE next to their Little Girls names!!! Disgusting! Stay The h**l away from my Girls...is ALL I can say!

Answer 15

Oh...was I not suppose to click on all the rings?

Answer 16

haha

love this testiminial

"Thank God for your site!  Our daughter was really nervous walking down the aisle, but she seems okay now and the money we got let us keep our farm and even add on a few acres."

—Mrs. Addrien L.

This is a load of misandry.

Answer 17

OMG!!!

Parents asking to unload their children like morons who buy pets only to discover how much work is involved and that they aren't up to the job!

I am amazed that this is legal!  This unbelievable!  How can this be legal - these are minors, and as such are not legally able to give consent.

*LOOK AT THE TESTIMONALS PAGE: ITS ALL ABOUT GREED: CARS, HOUSES, JEWELRY, FAMILY BUSINESS EXPANSION, EXPENSIVE HOLIDAYS, SHOPPING, SWIMMING POOLS, JACCUZZI...

CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS???

I am in shock over here!

"Thank God for your site!  Our daughter was really nervous walking down the aisle, but she seems okay now and the money we got let us keep our farm and even add on a few acres."

—Mrs. Addrien L.

"At first we were worried that Janine was too young to get married, but then her new husband bought her a house and a car and jewelry and the money we got let us buy a house for ourselves.  Getting out of the trailer park at our age was the best thing that ever happened to us, and it’s all thanks to Marry Our Daughter!"

—Mr. Jack M.

“I was SO scared getting married so young, but my husband is an okay guy and I am SO proud that because of me my parents were able to get their first brand-new car and take the trip they always wanted to.  I couldn’t have done it without your site!"

—Katrina K., married at 14

“Our 15 year old daughter Mary wasn’t very popular and did nothing but mope around the house bringing everybody down, so we decided to marry her off through your site. Now our house is a lot cheerier and we love our new swimming pool and Jaccuzi!  We’ve told our youngest that when she turns 15 we’re going to marry her off too!"

—Mrs. James P.

“My mother thought I was getting ‘too frisky” and that I had to get married right away before I lost my purity to some high school boy.  Marry Our Daughter found me a husband and my parents were able to keep their house and pay off my mother’s medical bills.  I was so glad I could help them, and being married at my age (I'm 16 now) has a lot of advantages, like my own credit card!"

—Nancy A.

Answer 18

no offense but how did you even find this site in the first place? And yes, this site is quite unsettling to see, but I'm not really surprised, since there is bound to be sites and just about anything dating site related, or whatever, that is a little strange or ****** up.

Answer 19

i've seen this before, but i think it is fake. at least, i really hope it's fake. either way, it is disgusting and obviously the worst idea ever.

Answer 20

Shamu that is how I met my husband! LOL!

Answer 21

Why is it that when it is on the internet, you are calling it a crime?

If a man offers to buy a $50,000 ring upon marriage, you would likely say "He loves her".

Answer 22

It isn't real.

Snopes:

Answer 23

I think this is sick. If the ages of those young women is in doubt, would the people responsible for that site be guilty in trafficking young women across State lines.

Answer 24

No, I haven't ever seen something like that before. Though ignorance is pretty rampant in the religion section of Yahoo answers itself. (Heh, had to take it.)

That does quite sicken me actually, though once they come of age they don't have to put up with that c**p. Though quite a few young girls are brainwashed by their parents through things like morals and religion into believing anything they say, like marrying at such a young age to a random guy so they can earn a bride price.

Answer 25

JESUS CHRIST. wtf kind of parents are these...
