It’s not such a bad custom

Presenter: Thank you, Kevin Edwards, for that short speech. Now, next we have Indira Komandur.

Indira: My talk is about arranged marriage. I am seventeen. My parents are already starting to look for a husband for me. In a few years I shall marry a man that they choose. Now, you are probably thinking ‘That’s terrible! How awful!’ But I don’t think so, and I am going to explain why. Most people confuse arranged marriage with forced marriage. A forced marriage is one where you have no choice. However, when my parents choose a husband for me, if I don’t like him, I can tell them and they will find me another. I have a choice. It’s just that my parents do the looking for me. I think that’s a good idea. After all, they know who I am. They know me better than I know myself, and I trust them to find a good man who will make me happy. They would not choose a bad man for me to marry, would they? In Britain, though, people just hope to find their marriage partner at work, or in a pub or at a party. This means it must be hard to meet the right person, I think. Perhaps that’s why I see so many unhappy relationships and failed marriages. I would much rather trust my parents to find a husband for me, than rely on luck. I think my marriage will have a very good chance of success. So, when I say I am looking forward to my arranged marriage, ask yourself – is it really such a crazy idea?
