在本篇文章中，作者以有別於「理性選擇」與「利潤」的觀點來討論台越跨國仲介婚姻；而以仲介過程所造成的性別政治效果，來說明台越仲介婚姻是一種形塑兩性關係的重要機制。在具體的研究內容上，本文試圖藉由仲介婚姻的過程（「養新娘」、「相親」、「新娘學校」）等帶有儀式性的運作方式，來討論仲介婚姻如何為既定的社會性別秩序提供了實踐證明，並確認了越南女性和從屬性之社會角色之間的公開關係。 本研究發現，「越南新娘」在台灣出現的原因，一方面是在於作為仲裁機制的台灣社會成員所秉持的性契約倫理觀；另一方面，則是人們對仲介婚姻儀式過程主觀感知的客觀化結果。性契約的倫理觀讓仲介婚姻得以存在，而通過仲介婚姻過程中的運作方式，「越南新娘」作為從屬者的社會形象成為客觀存在的認識對象。
