This is a very old tradition in some remote parts of the world where they actually auction their girls to the highest bidder, plus the father of the girl has a full account on how much he spent on his daughter from the day she was born, and he would ask his price to give her daughter's hand in marriage to the person who is ready to pay, plus host a feast for the entire village to qualify this process, in someparts of Kalash valley which is in the northern area of Chitral, Pakistan they also sell their girls in an annual auction held every year, plus in some parts of Afghanistan also sellingof girls is common, most of them who are bought by brokers land up as prostitutes, as after defloration of virgin girls they are again sold to madams, pimps for commercial abuse of them, sad and unfortunate things still happen even in this century, such sales, auctions should be banned, which is a total disgrace for women around the world.
