I’d be really interested to know about the logistics of this. Did he arrange this with the girls family or with her directly, both weird, but in different ways.
Although I suppose it can’t be any worse than online dating.

Blind dates have been a thing for hundreds of years. It’s not that strange. The dad is just being an ass about it.

Well, I shorted the timeframe as to exclude arranged marriages. Although it’s still a thing today.

the dad is being denigrating, but don’t you also feel it’s a violation to set up a date without consent or discussion first? The dad seems so toxic in his behavior and it’s not surprising to read he is also controlling and “dominant”.
