Except that arranged marriage is still common in Muslim society. See the section: "Islamic dating practices and community programs":

- dragonwriter 9y ago> Except that arranged marriage is still common in Muslim society. I fail to see how the fact that arranged marriage remains common in Muslim society is germane to the point that sentence is offered in response to or even the wider discussion of this app, except insofar as both arranged marriages and the existing structures which support it are an incumbent factor which any dating app targeting that population necessarily must contend with.
- bogomipz 9y agoIt was in response to the statement that: >".. don't see any particularly good reason to think there is anything particularly deserving of it in this concept." Using a dating app to find spouse would likely to be seen as offensive by families that believe in arranged marriages. Did I misunderstand the comment?
