Dowry is heavier than life

Most Asian women; it seems to be compulsory to bring a property or money as a bride to her husband on her marriage.
What a ridiculous custom is this?
It's rather different than when you visit a whore.
Then you have to pay her and it's a must.
How these shameless craven men grumble for money?
A woman goes with a man for better prospects and she gives you precious offspring.
These human God-fearing barbarians treat callously for those fragile creatures.
