Imagine an episode where Weiss is abducted and the Team gets to meet this guy (and is acually a very decent guy with proper swordsmanship to boot). The girls can't see why she would say no, but Weiss explains

Weiss: it's not that I don't want to, but I never got a choice to begin with, they didn't even so much as introduce me, that's why I said no

Yang: but you got to admit, he is pretty hot right

Weiss: (quick glance to suitor) *shrug* Just avoiding the arranged marriage on principle? Good theory, especially if the suitor turned out to be a decent guy. That's almost never the case in arranged marriages, so that would be a pretty amusing twist. And an even bigger twist would be if the suitor approached her in appeal for a chance sort of thing, like let him try and then decide if they can be together. Weiss gives him a chance and ends up liking him back.

Also on the chastisy thing, they probably advised not to get married and/or have kids due to conflict of interest, but find a way around it (like Jedi in Star Wars)
