re: #796 Mich-again

In the animal world that means just waiting for the males to fight it out. In the human world its quite a bit different. Actually if you want to get closer to the animal method for choosing a spouse, it would make sense to just go back to letting the parents arrange the whole thing. I don’t see anyone signing up for that when they are 18. But by the time they are 30 and divorced I wonder how many people wonder if mom and dad could have picked a better spouse.

The problem with arranged marriages is that either you have smart sensible parents who get it right, or you have parents who get it WRONG. I know people in both kinds of arranged marriages.
