Contrary to what you might expect, Anderson says, dowry prices have not dropped off with improvements in education in India. Instead, they have gotten worse, with educated brides and their families willing to pay even more for high-quality grooms.
Wasn't there a story here from a couple of days ago, on how expensive it is for the groom's family to get a bride in China these days?
