2. Back then when your girl is married, it is consider someone else's family. Not their original parents' anymore.
3. In poor places, boys can work harder than girls since they are boys. And Boy's early ancestor are hunters.

whew! good thing my Chinese family/relatives aren't that strict! and most strict Chinese family would still want their kids to marry their own kind/nationality.
