Social media has plenty of content to make people laugh and get them rolling out on the floor laughing. Active users might have previously come across a sarcastic newspaper ad seeking marriage proposals for an educated girl who wanted to tie the knot with a young man who knew cooking and had good property. While these demands would have seemed fine for you, there was more to the list if you remember. Don’t recollect the ad? It has resurfaced online and we have you covered to tell you more about it.
A matrimonial ad seeking a husband for a feminist woman more than 30 years of age had gone viral on the internet in 2021 for mentioning some of the quirky preferences. In the writeup, the prospective bride called herself a “30+ girl” and mentioned about looking for a man with someone between 25-28 years. Yes, you read that right, a younger groom.
