:steam: There's no way that I'd trust my parents to make that decision.
Interestingly enough, it seems to work... if you are to get married at a young age and your parents aren't after just money It seems that young people don't know how to pick a compatible mate and that societies that this is a norm involves more duty based expectations, which makes the relationship endure (and seemingly is generally happier... there is something to living up to expectations).
Doesn't work that way in the modern world though, with western values (individualism) so omnipresent.
But yes, that site is disturbing if that is what you mean It just depends on who you parents are... putting you up for auction is not a good sign.
