American men ought to pay attention, as well. A Muslim man may marry a "kafir" woman if he pleases, but a Muslim woman cannot marry an infidel man without causing her family disgrace. And disgrace can be dangerous when dealing with Islamics.

Not that there are many Muslim girls at the colleges, but there are a few.

And if any foreign girl has an influential family, they can make life miserable for an American bridegroom.

There was an interesting movie a couple years back about this American man who sent off for his Russian bride ('cause American women are so *difficult*), only to end up with her Ruso-Mafia family to deal with...

Make sense--those who seek shortcuts are likely to end up on a dead end.

That's true. I tend to think that an American man marrying a foreign woman is probably "saving" her from a dismal fate, and I applaud them. But you are right, you can't just pick up a person like a stray cat and take them home... 'specially if kittie comes from some freaky family who'll stalk you anywhere you go. I've heard a couple of scary stories about American men marrying Saudi girls whose brothers then devote their lives to hunting them down and killing them.

Geez... we Americans are just too dang nice!! I wish some Saudi jerk would marry one of our Lorena Bobbits, just once.
