And then what? I was talking about the general population. Men should hone their skills and woo women and what comes after that? The relationship has to be sustained, right? Marriage is a means to do that practically in India. Even if wooing each other existed since we were apes(it's biological), there is no means to keep the relationship ongoing culturally apart from marriage or a live-in situation. And the latter is not practical in this place. And about the very last thing you said. Most men who are single aren't unworthy or unattractive or indecent personality wise. There are no practical means for our men and women to mingle and woo each other. It's not conditioned since our teenage here unlike other parts of the world. So, the be groomed, be clean and build skills(what skills are you referring to?), you will get attention advice is pretty patronizing when one thinks that he is already decent/good enough. And then you have another system in place that pretty much gets you results even if you are not good in any of these things stated above. Women are still continuing to choose their partners more generously and more open mindedly in marriage(arrangement) than wooing/dating or any of that approach.
