It’s amazing to me how the media have latched onto the idea of pairing couples on TV. Take “The Bachelor” as an example. One man is dating 20 women all at the same time just to see if he will find his perfect match. I have four points against this.
The only type of women I can think of who would subject themselves to this are: (1) women who are unaffected by the fact that they are not the only woman in a man’s life; (2) they just like to compete; (3) they just want the money; (4) they will do anything to get on television.
What are the chances that you will find your true soulmate from a group of 20 women in a couple of weeks who were selected not by you, but by a person who really only cares about ratings for their show? In real life most people date for a year, maybe two. The show creates an atmosphere that is a fairy-tale scenario and not real life. Such as: always dining in expensive restaurants, cruises, limousine rides and hotels, etc. What is implied when he hangs a “do not disturb” sign out with two different women on two different nights? It leaves the viewer to create a disgusting picture of people having premarital sex.
Why do you think we have so many divorces? If people would take the time to get to know this person and see how they live in real life (and not in front of a camera), they would know if they have found their lifelong companion
I see no benefits to this horrid show. In my opinion, it’s just another nauseating show that the network has put in front of the American viewers and it is an insult to our country as a whole. It cheapens TV and American morals.
