And my point is that old style mores and traditions are nothing
to get up in arms about and start calling people out. So you
think a father doesn't have concern over wether a young man can
take care of his daughter? There are more ways than one to view
this and that has been my point. You took it mean the lowest
form and I'm saying that isn't necessarily the intent.  Is it
just a tradition.. or does it also have to do with a father
hoping his son-in-law can provide? Some of both I'm betting.  It
appears that autocorrect has become my worst enema.
