There are a lot of marriage agencies in the world that offer introduction services.
In most cases, these agencies have a database of women who want to find a foreign husband and a database of men who want to find a wife from another country.
The marriage agencies make money by selling entries from these databases to men and women, who want to find a partner.
However, usually, it is men paying to have their data submitted to the database, or to have access to some data from the "women" database..
Pro: a possibility of making a sample from this database based on such criteria as age, occupation, interests -- it makes it easier to find a kind of person you're looking for..Contra: This approach seems quite general and time-consuming.
Even if the database is quite comprehensive, it will never give a complete representation of a person.Also, the woman doesn't choose the man at all.
