WANTED : A bride with no brains ;)

The marriage season is in the offing...and the number of proposals coming in are increasing now. My cousin is also an engineer like me currently pursuing her MBA. She is a bright person & has won many awards for her contribution in technical as well as social events. Has been globe-trotting like all of us IT people and earns pretty well. She is smart, intelligent, has a great sense of humor and is a great person to be with. She is someone who believes in her dreams and has a bright future ahead(is what everyone says). In a way me and her think on the same lines so I can identify with her easily. She is 3 yrs older than me and her parents have been groom-searching for past 2 yrs. She forwarded me some mails just to let me know what I can expect in future and I found these mails interesting. Full of hypocrisy and double-standards. My most favourite picks are here : ABC, being highly focused,ambitious and hard working person. He keeps on travelling abroad (Just to mention, during last year itself, he has travelled about 7-8 times to different countries). Thus, we are looking in his better half, an understanding - that binds them together in unison towards a long lasting, blissful life. We would like his better half to have similar understanding. The girl should be professionally qualified however we would not like her to continue work after marriage for compatible & delightful life.She should not consume non-veg food (including egg). We would only consider the match if the KUNDLIS match.His brother is a Project Mgr in a MNC and sister-in-law is also a Home maker (B.Tech, MBA) and has quit work after marriage. XYZ, is an ambitious and diligent person with moderna values. We are a family of liberal ideas. He travels a lot for work to foreign countries. We are looking for a fair,slim,beautiful and traditional girl who is professionally qualified (preferably BE or MBA).Please contact us with her details including her current weight,her latest photograph and any special acheivements. We also like to mention that our Panditji's decision will be the final decision. Since we are a financially secure family, we do not want the girl to work after marriage so she can devote herself more towards the family and travel with her husband when he is on business trips. Kindly contact us with her BHP. Thanks for your mail. The boy in question is working as a Senior Engineer in a top MNC and holds modern values. He is a god-fearing, handsome and career-oriented person. We are looking for a homely and professionaly qualified girl. She should be fair,slim,beautiful and respect elders. If currently working,she should discontinue work after marriage to ensure a harmonious family life. Please contact us with her current photo and other details. Amazing people! Some people call her parents with marriage proposals but once they get to know that she spent a year in US and keeps travelling, they kinda ask them how can they send their daughter to such a place for so long...ha ha I love these people...they boast of their sons when they travel abroad and they have different rules for the women of the house. Surprisingly, this is not the first time I heard something like this. One of my frenz at my last workplace also faced quiet a situation when she met up with a guy her parents chose for her. He went on praising her for her intellect and looks for the first two meetings (she wore Indian traditional wear)and when they met for the third time (when she was in a t-chirt and jeans), he asked her, "Will you wear all this after marriage too?"...She told me she was so taken aback when that guy went on with his lecture on how gals shud not wear SUCH clothes... Itz pretty obvious she declined the proposal. I wonder what will happen once my parents resume this groom-search. I am for sure not slim at all, I believe in my dreams and I work towards them. Working or not working would be MY decision. I believe in a marriage two people involved grow,share and adapt together. I can't false-worship someone for sure and there are so many things I have not even thought about...I would do in a marriage... I can't ofcourse nod in approval to my husband if he is wrong...I do have a mind of my own which is sane enuff to think and decide at present ;) Well, watever...but I had a good laugh after reading thru such mails... Some people need to step out and grow-up.
