I've been reading some stuff about Islam and its beliefs a friend linked me and I got a similar ad. Although it said, "The one your parents picked no good!?" which seems really, really off.

Seriously?! Wow...it's basically telling you to "stick it to the man" by turning down an arranged marriage. That's...disturbingly humorous. :psyduck:
Welu:
It came up on YouTube. If I see it again I'll printscreen it. I don't want to talk for another culture but I thought something like that could be deemed offensive.
Bluesummers:
Some people I knew in high school and uni were in cultures (some from Islam, some in other cultures) that used arranged marriages as a tradition. And some of them were opposed to the idea, but not all. I guess it's all based on an individual's take on the matter.
Thrillho:
Arranged marriages still happen a lot and some people are okay with it. Many are not.
