I see nothing wrong with mail-order brides, as long as both partners are open and honest about their desires from the relationship and there is no abuse going on. Its no different than an arranged marriage, which again, I see no problem with as long as there is no abuse going on.
Some men just don't WANT a marriage built on feelings and love...love complicates things and sometimes you just want a nice, easy life with someone you can consider your friend, who gives you regular sex and can feed you a nice meal everyday. And these women are usually from third-world countries, so getting to move overseas, sometimes with their family, and live in a safe country where they get taken care of and can have great opportunities....c'mon, how is that a bad thing? Sometimes the best relationships are ones where both parties get what they need out of each other...as long as you're realistic and know what both you and your partner want out of the marriage, and can both work to give each other that, then I see no problem. Love isn't everything and in todays society, marriage is only a temporary thing. Only half of first marriages last, and second and third marriages have higher divorce rates. Marrying for love generally isn't a foolproof idea....marrying to have someone take care of you while you take care of them..is.
