Sorry, but if either of my parents arranged me with someone without me knowing and without my consent, they're cut off for life.
And then the bitch has the audacity to try and use her health to pressure her child into it. Disgusting
Unfortunately this not only would pass in some Asian places with people supporting he, chances are the mother would win and the daughter would just accept the entire situationSo let me get this straight. This cow would rather have her daughter be be in a relationship she doesn't want and depressed than see her daughter in love with a woman and happy? And to top it off, she arranges a shotgun wedding in the guise of a "blind date"?
She needs to have her head examined, or rather vacuumed out since it's obvious there's no actual brain in there!!
This is one of those moments where culture plays a huge role in what's going on and it's really hard to translate that. Getting married is an incredibly big deal, especially for more rural/conservative places like where Pingping and her mom are from. It's hard to describe just how important it is, like this is a country where getting married is so important that they have ghost marriages for people who died single.Outside of her mom being really homophobic this is like SO FUCKED UP forcing her into a marriage she doesnt want like how does she not see anything wrong with this
Is her reputation with her relatives that much more important than her daughter being able to choose who she dates/marries...
Thanks for the context!!!This is one of those moments where culture plays a huge role in what's going on and it's really hard to translate that.

Her mom's not intentionally being homophobic. She doesn't even know that her daughter is dating anyone, let alone that it's a woman. She even immediately acknowledges their relationship after she learns about it. This doesn't absolve what she does here, It's still bad. But she's not doing it from a place of hate. Every aspect of her culture has told her that this is what she needs to do as a mother and that cultural pressure is being represented by all of their other relatives.
