''[The garter] is a final temptation for the bride to test her loyalty': Wedding traditions that give brides the ick

Welcome to 2023, where women are over the whole idea of being objects passed from one male to another. Back in the day fathers "gave" their daughters, along with a dowry, to a worthy man. The thought of that is now repulsive. Women are human beings and when they get married it is because they love that person and want to declare that eternal love. Not that they are the next shiny toy this man is about to own. 

One woman asked what wedding traditions gave you the ick on Reddit and the comment section became flooded with brides, wedding parties, and wedding guests saying some seriously cringe things they had to do at weddings. The first tradition is the garter belt one. If you haven't heard of that one, it is when the bride is wearing a garter and one of the men in the bridal party has to remove it from her leg with their teeth. It's cringe and the reason—"to give one last temptation to the bride"—is disgusting. Let's 86 it please?

It isn't just the garter belt tradition couples are tossing from their wedding—see what else below!
