Which Is Better Between Olden Days Marriage And Modern Day Marriage? by mhisbliss(f): 4:15pm On Jan 28, 2019
I was chatting with my friend and her mum overhead us, then she said she never dated her husband before getting married to him, she never had sex either, that he just came and asked her parents for her hand in marriage, and over the years she learnt to love him, and its better than modern day marriage where you have to date him, prolly have sex before marriage, i don't think she's right though because you have to date someone, get familiar, and such arranged marriages comes with a lot of regrets and had i known, and i can't grow to love someone i don't like or put up with nonsense, she raised some valid points though but i disagreed silently, i can't argue with her.

Modern day marriages please.
In this century women have better rights than before in marriages(egalitarian marriages).

Unlike before when a woman's highest calling was in the kitchen and didn't have rights to voice their displeasures on issues.The modern woman has choices.

Arranged marriages make no sense to me.

Don't you think the reason why the rate of divorce is high this days is because of this belief that a woman's place is not the kitchen?

I don't think so.Nobody should define a woman's place only the woman herself should do that.

People divorce for different reasons.I think it is a flawed mentality when people put the failure of a marriage on women only men have their faults too.

Lol that is your reason? Aren't you worried about the fact that you'll be forced to marry a man you don't like?

Well from what she told me, it looks exactly like a forced marriage, they just gave her away without asking her if she's cool with it.

I think the reason for the high rate of divorce today is because there is less stigma on divorcees in those days people women especially were stigmatised for leaving their husband's houses if a man even had an issue with his wife he could just get another wife to marry.

People in modern times have choices and are tired of pretending or enduring BS from their spouses so once one misbehaves or falls out of love the door is always open for divorce.

If there was less stigma on divorce in those times and if some of our mothers were more financially empowered like now they would not think twice to leave their husbands who treated them like second fiddle mundane beings.

true

but also women now have an option as in finding a job to look after herself

if you look back the 80s going back most wives were housewives non were working, husbands were the sole provider, society sort of shun away few women who worked as they were sort labelled as rebels and loose simply because most job were around men

so husband being the sole provider and society looking down on those women who dare to go and work among men, most women stayed in these marriages even when the husband was abusive

even if you look now there were few women selling in the streets as compared to now, the modern marriage is still ok but things have changed women can opt to leave marriage becoz she can feed herself by simply having to sell on the streets than being abused

hmmmmm..
well Will have go for modern day marriages not as if is perfect buh it gives both partners more freedom anyways.(which is being misused)
example a woman being abused by her hubby can choose to leave the marriage buh back then it can never happen..
back then arranged marriages was much not like now when you can study your partner and decide whether to marry him/her
buh truth be told the difference between then and now isn't much

I'm not saying its cool for anyone to endure abuse but they endured it and made thier marriage work, don't you think they're the ones who deserve that title more than one who got divorced over something you can easily settle with a talk?
