Why is it that

We only hear about mail order brides and not mail order grooms?

This question brought to you by a rasict person in the breakroom.

Because it is still a male dominated society and it would imply that if the woman bought a groom she would own him.

@SageWanderer you know...my experience with men is that the majority actually want to be kept men as they have relied solely on me for housing, food, finances, etc. So it's weird to me that men would take umbrage to being considered owned.

@FoxyGoddess Maybe a generational shift? But then I just always assumed my role was to be the provider.
What about mail order Best Men too?

@ThirstenHowl I would question their commitment
Are you saying you are racist?

@deathfairy it wasn't me. Someone said that he wondered if his friend got a mail order bride because she didn't speak any english and they were cultural opposites. He said a few other choice comments as well.
