But I understand what you're saying.
I don't mean in terms of morals or ethics - strictly from a practical perspective, what reasons do women have for marrying, if not love? Money, power, admission to another country they wouldn't otherwise be able to live in... if you can't offer any of these things, then it would be extremely hard to get a woman to marry you. There's got to be something in it for both parties, ya know?
