Living in a country where arranged-marriage is more or less a norm, I would say its got more to do with the social environment one grows up in. I mean people here consider marriage like a check-point that that needs to be arrived at. More correctly a means to further the family name and line. While that may be logically correct, it just seems too cold.
The choices more often than not are made for you - regardless of gender of the parties involved.
Oh, and divorce is really frowned upon here - its especially painful for the women since, the bias against women is already bone deep.
