The way marriages happen in India changed largely. A few generations back, the head of the family used to follow the procedure of picking the match and talking to the other family. Later, the trend of parents of girls and boys initiating the process came into existence. Matrimonial sites and ads are the current trends.
A matrimonial ad posted by a bride’s family in a newspaper grabbed everyone’s attention as it clearly said software engineers need not apply as they are not interested in that profession.
The ad started a new debate on whether software engineers have no game in matrimonial ads or not. IT professionals are among the highest-earning people in society and they earn big amounts. Based on the experience, the software engineers will earn lakhs as well.
Despite all this, the ad said the software engineers need not apply for the match. However, a few supported the bride’s family choice as they have the choice of selecting the groom from the background they like.
Not just high salaries, software engineers also develop some health issues as they have to sit for long hours as part of their profession. Spending long hours in Ac rooms also make them prone to a few health issues. Keeping this in mind, the family might have decided to look for matches from other professions, say a few.
