WTF? Mail-order brides still exist?

So I'm flipping channels at 1:30 AM, and come across some girls in bikinis. Being a guy, I stop flipping. But what I discover is kind of disturbing-it appears that they're basically advertising Russian girls to be married off to American men. The informercial is just showcasing all these women talking about why they want to find their soul mates and come to America. They're trying to get guys go to some "Russian Love Match" website, which I haven't visited, but anywho, there's the gist...

I only post this because I find it weird-I didn't think mail-order brides still existed, and if they did, I certainly didn't think it was legal and even advertised on late-night television. Anyone else find this strange?

Look at where they live, then ask that question again.

If they get married, don't they automatically get a green card? Isn't it an easy way to become a citizen?

That is what I always thought the reason for them doing that was.
 
I don't see how these things work though. Do these guys fly over there and simply pick one out?

I'd be worried she'd divorce me as soon as we get back, and end up with half my stuff.
 
Purchasing brides has been central to EVERY single culture in the history of man.

This is nothing new, it is just more rare in American culture in the past 100 years.

Are you serious or have you brainwashed to believe that the US is a third world country. C'mon the US is still the greatest country in the world and I believe still has more migration into it than any other country in the world.
 
^or it would, if we didn't kick most of them out.

still, If i was an attractive young woman in a 3rd world country...I probably be a prositute.

Actually, on a ratio of total population / land mass and published immigration figures the UK wins that one.
 
A guy at work bought one 😛. She is Chinese. He first met her there and married within the week and then he came back, leaving her there. He was born in Europe and moved to Canada and gained citizenship, and works in the US on a visa. Canada won't let her in, though.

They to stay in a nice house. They want to have a car (a nice car if possible, but compared to most of the cars in Eastern Europe and Russia, most cars in USA are nice). Maybe they work but their pay is unable to sustain a decent life.
