Found this man on tiktok bragging about his mail order bride.....
I sprinted to the comments. It got worse.
Nobody seemed to be concerned about this - here are the top comments.
Outside of the broad acceptance and nobody questioning this...He talks about how he is "training her".
He uses "pinay" as if he is referring to a dog breed. If you're unfamiliar, its a term to a Filipina woman living abroad, often seen as a derogatory or offensive term.
He also brags about how cheap she was to acquire. And how she "never has headache" a.k.a. never refuses him for sex.
All in all, I am disgusted by this man openly bragging about engaging in human trafficking.
If you're unfamiliar with how mail order brides are a form of human trafficking, this is a good opportunity to educate yourself!
AĀ Public Interest Law ReporterĀ paper, "In the Name of āLoveā: Mail Order Brides-The Dangerous Legitimization of Sex, Human and Labor Trafficking,ā notes that websites promoting mail order brides āproject the stereotypical image of a Filipino woman being sweet, submissive, traditional, virginal, Christian, and familiar with the English language, making them the most popular ethnic group for mail order brides in the world.ā TheĀ Public Interest Law ReporterĀ paper noted that āmail order brides are often subject to physical and sexual abuse once they arrive in the U.S., which they are especially vulnerable to due to their immigration status.ā They must remain married for a minimum of two years to be viable to receive a green card. For many men, two years is the most they plan on having them for, giving them a playground to wreac emotional, physical, and sexual havoc. When one leaves, they order a new one.
The women are a tremendously profitable cash crop for marriage brokering agencies. Victoria I. Kusel notes in theĀ Albany Government Law ReviewĀ that mail order bride agenciesĀ earn between $6,000 and $10,000 per client; some agencies claim to service as many as 15,000 clients each year.
Many of the men seeking out this service are considerably older than the women they contract to marry, though some agencies encourage their clients to stay within a 20-year difference in age. (X)
The prevalence of abuse against mail order brides prompted Congress to pass theĀ Federal International Marriage Broker Regulation ActĀ in 2005, which requires all marriage visa sponsors to undergo background checks and puts a limit on serial visa applications.
The regulations were passed into law in response to theĀ 1995 murderĀ of 24-year-old Filipina mail order bride Susana Blackwell in Washington State. Susana fled after less than two weeks of marriage, citing violent physical abuse. Her 47-year-old husband subsequently applied for a legal annulment, which would have led to her deportation. Susana responded by filing for divorce under the battered wife exception that would have allowed her to remain in the U.S. By the time of their divorce case was ready, Susana was eight months pregnant.
She and two other Filipina friends sat in the hallway of the King County Courthouse, waiting for the hearing to commence when her estranged husband walked up to the trio and shot each woman point blank in the head and chest. He is currently serving out a life sentence for the 1st degree murder of the three women and the manslaughter of Susanaās unborn child.
A 2012 revision of the Violence Against Women Act that would have helped mail order brides by allowing abused immigrant women to self-petition for protected immigration status was blocked by House Republicans; asĀ The Huffington PostĀ reported, pressure was exerted in part by the president of a mail order bride company.
The industry of mail order brides is exploitive. It promises a better life to young foreign women, then marries them off (at a profit) to older men who, for whatever reason, could not find a partner without paying for one. These women are then isolated, expected to perform sexually for their new husbands, and are legally required to remain in the marriage for 2 years. That's two years of sexual and domestic slavery, with the threat of an unhappy husband = deportation.
The mail order bride industry is human trafficking.
I hope this was educational.
