Some opinions agree with his opinion that offering too much money is unfair to men: "It's the right decision, I feel like we should abandon the custom of offering marriage because men and women are equal." ". "You're taking care of yourself. I think that's reasonable, instead of having to carry a pile of debt when getting married."

However, there are also some opinions that the custom of demanding marriage is reasonable, it is also a relatively cheap price to get the girl that their parents had to raise for decades until she grew up and married her. husband.

According to custom, men in China must meet the bride's family's wedding challenge of 10,000 to 1 million yuan (33 million VND - 3.3 billion VND), but currently, many young people are protesting against the tradition. This.

The young man then explained that because he and his relatives had tried to collect money to buy a house before, they could not manage such a large amount of money.

However, the girl's family said that the red book is still in the name of the boy's parents, and the daughter who marries over is not in the red book, so there is no guarantee for their daughter. Furthermore, this wedding challenge amount has been a common level in the locality for many years, every family has offered the same wedding challenge. Therefore, the bride's family requires the bride price to be in cash. Even though they will only give it to the children later, they still want security for their daughter.
