Well, when it comes to relationships in their time, Betep, China's standards with dating and marriage were different from what ours are today. Back then,  most men cared only about their bride/girlfriend's looks, and whether or not they had grace and poise. We, in addition to the aforementioned qualities, want to know about our partner's personality,  likes, dislikes,  etc. However, you do make a very good point. In the second movie,  we're not really given any explanation about whether or not Lord Chin's sons liked the princesses just for their looks or even at all. Good point. However,  if I had to guess which one was the case, I would probably guess the looks one, considering Prince Jeekie's reaction to seeing Mulan in person.
