These are people who demand complete and total acceptance from others. I believe that they cannot fathom the idea of sacrificing a part of yourself for someone else. Mulan wasn't even necessarily against being a bride, but was anxious that she wouldn't live up to her community's idea of the "perfect bride" and wouldn't be accepted for who she is. She accepted being Sheng's bride because he accepted her for who she is.
