Thank you. I certainly didn't mean to suggest that you had done any such thing.

I'm just saying that I'm an educated woman in a first world country who absolutely was not being forced into a relationship with a man and that failed to get me the middle class life I desired and was willing to work towards. So there is a lot more that needs to happen in order to solve such problems. Merely banning this one thing will not somehow automatically give women empowered, moneyed lives.

That simply is not how it works. If I thought it would, I would be the first to say "Hell yeah!"
