The Life of a Mail Order Russian Bride

A Word from Our Sponsors

Lover'sPlanet would like people to consider from their latest press release the life of russian mail order brides and the men that marry them.  Marriage in this situation is very likely to be unlike any marriage relationship that most people that were not married through mail order arrangements are capable of understanding.  LoversPlanet also mentions that divorce in Russia is reported in their release to be lower than an in either the US, the UK, or Australia.

It should be considered that in a free world anyone is allowed to meet and marry in the manner they see fit, unless the law prohibits that marriage based on religion, sex, prior marriage, duress, or genetic incompatibility.  Not to mention the financial inability to afford a marriage license.  Society has setup many laws on marriage some born out of practicality, some out of moral choices by the community and some out of reasons that are difficult to fathom.  Marriages arranged over long distances and sometimes involving dowries and chattel have been around for centuries even millennia.  The question for society is whether or not this type of arrangement and all of the extensions that can be derived from it, are they acceptable?  Should the laws be updated?  Should this be a federal or a state issue?
