Find it a bit amusing and bit shocking

Wonder if suing for dark skin can be tantamount to racism

This has got to be a joke

They made numerous "long telephone calls" to India to speak to the woman then when they went to India she couldnt speak english? who were they talking to?

This article reads like fiction btw ...

Im also wondering why an American man at the age of 37 still needs his parents to find him a bride?

he sounds like a real winner.

However im still not convinced this is real...

Well, it could be like those "enticing" 900 number calls. What you hear over the phone is not what exactly you can expect to see.

At least the family suing the other has "adapted" to the "American Way" to sue everybody for everything.

You could be right.

Sounds like there is greed all around. One family wants to 'sue' to get money out of someone..and the other family (if this is true) is trying to get their daughter out to the US.

This is why im a FIRM believer in people choosing their own partner.
Its silly how everything is all based on looks. "Tall" "fair complexioned"

blah... and anyway... whats the big deal about "tallness'. whats wrong with 'short and sweet'????

Tallness is a very big deal upto the point the bride does not exceed the groom's tallness. If it does exceed, then the novelty of tallness is gone :)

Or of course, if you are like me who likes petite women. Then tallness means nothing. Man, I had a blast in Mexico couple of weeks ago :D

Are you saying you like whoopie goldberg more than jessica alba..come on now.

Its okay if you are good looking and have a good enough personality; should not have a problem finding a partner/partners but What about all those fat and ugly ones? someone has to marry them and what better way to send someone to hell than an arranged marriage???? Right!!
