We have no problem saying a woman is bound for a year after spending like 2 1/2 hours with a chapter, often meeting only a small fraction of its members, and in what (while it usually works) we all have to agree is a very unnatural situation. Meanwhile, a woman who's had anywhere from months to years to get to know a chapter and spend time with them can jettison her commitment QUICKER?
I don't get it.

I'm with you. I'm still confused. And I'm not understanding why we have different expectations of commitment from different PNMs, especially when those expectations seem backward.
I'm also not understanding why this is such a frustrating concept/concern and why the thought of having a rational discussion about it is quickly being dismissed.
