I have friends who are Afghan who have had arranged marriages so this led me to be curious to ask, why does this practice still persist into the 21st century?

    You do know that arranged marriage and forced marriage are different things, right?

      You do know the two overlap rather consistently from the context of the females’ choice in most cultures where it persists, right?

        That doesn’t mean they should be conflated.

          It means they are conflated, even if you don’t like that they are.

            Only for people with an inability to comprehend rudimentary semantics.

              Projecting one’s denial of rational semantics is a comprehension problem on its own.
