Yes, and cultural things are often misunderstood by outsiders, so you can still have the whole "marrying for money" angle, or general reluctance to it. It's a very interesting thing to have in there.

Haha. I'm actually following that. I read feministing.com and I have a couple of Jessica Valenti's books, so it's fun to see her getting married and trying to shed some of the same shitty archaic traditions that we did and getting flack for it. People at home view the So and me as something of a novelty and oddity. When we drive home, they always ALWAYS ask "So who did the driving?" because apparently, it's really odd to share the task. XD
