heelies: (( war-loving ))

When has a man ever been made to marry if he wishes not for it? I suppose then his wife's father should rob from him what he deems an appropriate bride price!

[His facetious tone makes plain how preposterous this seems to him. And thus he misses the point utterly.]

Furthermore, were I to find myself burdened with a bride I care nothing for, I would simply take a lover who might better satisfy my desires.
