From the Paper:

"Growing up children in the United States have always been taught when they get old enough they will meet that special person, fall in love, and get married. However, what they are not taught is that all of the other societies in this world are not like us. There are some societies that believe marriage should not be based on love. They instead believe it should be based on economical and or status gain. In the country of India there are marriages that occur based on love, but they are far from the norm. The marriages that mostly occur in India are based on something called the dowry system."
