What was/is stopping her from killing/castrating her """husband""" as he sleeps?
What was/is stopping her from killing or not caring for her "children", which was the whole point of the kidnapping?
And why is this practice correlated with inferior cultures/subhumans? Are they inferior because they kidnap or do they kidnap because they are inferior?
>How was/is bride kidnapping a thing?

Bride kidnapping is how beta males manage to reproduce. They lack real societal skills to win over a woman so they just storm in like apes and grab the girl.

Bride "kidnapping" isn't.
Kidnapping is a euphemism for elopement in countries where a woman has no right to choose her husband and/or the husband is not of social standing or wealth to 'properly' marry her. He "kidnaps" his bride and either makes arrangements later, or simply gives her family the finger. The picture you posted, the raping of the sabines, is a reference to this: in ancient Mediterranean culture, rape did not mean forcible sex, it meant abduction. When the Romans "raped" the Sabines it meant they kidnapped and married them. And given that the wives were the ones who supposedly helped make peace between the Romans and Sabines, who didn't attack the Romans immediately like all the others, it is more likely this bride "kidnapping" was an under the table way of allying the two tribes through marriage despite the Romans being considered the dregs of society at the time (due to being a refugee state)

>how is it a thing The men want to have sex and no one is stopping them >what is stopping her from killing/not caring about her "family" Fear. If she killed her husband, his friends or society would kill her, and probably gruesomely. >why is this associated with inferior cultures Because it's immoral and essentially how animals do things, and it is taboo in civilized cultures

>What was/is stopping her from killing/castrating her """husband""" as he sleeps? Because girls secretly like being dominated.

I was under the impression that bride kidnapping was symbolic and kind of a folk tradition, it's part of the modern Kazakh marriage ritual

Pretty much this. Many so called "rapes" that occurred historically(the bible, romans, etc) were more named so based on the fact that women had no sexual freedom and marriages in general, for both sexes were arranged for benefit of the family. Rape in general was considered an offense against the father before the girl. The world rape comes from Latin "rapere" which has the meaning of "abduction or "to carry off" as you were saying. Roman laws designated it legally as raptus. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rape Of course this doesn't mean some women. particularly during war weren't "defiled" or raped in a more modern sense. It also if you think about it, doesn;t consider rape in marriage possible, especially if it was a marriage arranged or approved by the father. >inb4 cheeky /pol/ joke about implying you can rape your wife.
Civilized cultures frequently kidnapped brides for themselves
In fact this is actually why women are so quick to submit to foreign invaders and abandon emotional ties to their own folks
The women who resisted died and never reproduced

Romans and Greeks always took women as sex slaves post-war

up until very recently raping was the norm in western civilization
servants (wives)/slaves were raped as a standard, and still is practiced by the upper classes
hisorically, bride kidnapping was a common practice, and still common in various parts of the world
rape of sabines is an example of the common practice ancient peoples
outside the white western civ, rape is traditionally practiced all over Asia (India, Arabia, Japan), Africa, Latin America

It probably was a real thing before it became a tradition.
Justin Evans

soviets tried to civilize the asiatics so a few transitioned into symbolic kidnapping

Bride "kidnapping" is just a special kind of elopement, the wife's family is usually in on it too.
