Maybe the problem lies deeper than it may seem at first sight?
We invited a cultural researcher to answer this question in order to understand, at least partly, what is the reason for such strong antipathy towards one of the most friendly and hospitable countries in the world, as some 30 years ago, people reacted more calmly to such unions.
Another interesting fact is that people are not always able to give a concrete reason for their disagreement and violent reaction to international relations.
"In the East, the choice of spouse is strictly guided by the immediate family and the rest of the family. The family is a kind of filter that the applicant has to pass before he or she becomes a candidate for the marriage union. There are clear selection criteria that must be met by such a candidate: is he from a good family, what is his profession, is he independent? For women, there are other criteria: is she from a good family? Is she a good hostess? Does she have a good reputation? Parents, aunts, uncles and so on make the decision first, and then they present the candidate in an attractive way. In this way, the marriage is prepared and concluded in agreement with the parental family,"- the expert explained.
