I have to hand it to the perfidious Jews. They actually engage in practical and effective matchmaking and family involved courting practices better than Catholics. Thanks to sodomite 'marriage' recognition, the marriage topic has been completely reframed. It has turned into a battle of man + woman versus perversion. The other essential discussions were put on the backburner. Things like family involvement vs peer involvement, multi generational household vs nuclear households, etc.
Listening to many cultural and political commentators they give the most vapid modern advice out there. And trads have lapped it up like a dog. I don't know any couples in tradition where they got together due to the direct prompting of the parents. I asked a few of my friends from different locations, neither did they.
Muslim and Jєωιѕн parents are far more involved in their adult children’s choice of spouse than most Catholics. Obviously I’m not supporting coercion to marry someone, but Catholic parents could do a little more I agree. It doesn’t even have to be overt, just subtly putting suitable people in their children’s environment, making connections with other Catholic parents who have children a similar age….
