Understand that I'm not suggesting the whole "industry" is bogus or that all mail-order brides are golddiggers. I'm as interested in success stories as I am in the failures. In fact, reports of successes would disprove my assumption that such marriages are likely to fail. Why? Language differences, cultural differences, religious differences, every other kind of differences, and the fact that the husband and wife don't know each other!
Personally, I don't know any mail-order marriages, working or not. The sites I see offering sexy brides seem more intended as soft porn or sex trade sites than as matchmakers. Otherwise, they might say something about intellect, personal interests, life experience, etc. Am I wrong on this?
