THERE'S NO TIMELINE FOR MARRIAGE
0
Every single woman of age 18 and above has at least been asked once of when she will get married or been mocked at mostly by males or by married counterparts. I know what you are thinking, she is a feminist, right ? Well I'm not, but feminist or not, the truth is the truth.
Just like someone can't know exactly when they will die so is when they will get married. The question " when are you getting married?" Or the phrase " get married, you are getting old" have pressuring effects, girls subjected to this kind of pressure tend to settle for anyone that comes their way out of desperation. And where desperation comes, love, understanding, and value leave. The males on the other hand feel that there are plenty fish at the sea. So the marriage that is suppose to be full of love happiness and loyalty would be a marriage governed by desperation on the woman's part amd the mentality of "plenty fish at the sea" on the man's part, culminating in divorce, and where divorce thrives, higher level of depression, anxiety, poorer self-concept and psychological distress happen. These effects are not often spoken of like the global warming but its effects are consuming us bit by bit on its own ways.
To males and married females who exact these pressures on the single ladies, my question is what gauratee you, you will not give birth to female child and what guarantee you she wouldn't be subjected to the same sort of pressures, so we are virtually all on the same boat, unless you do not give birth to a female child or has no female siblings in which case you are saved by default. So think twice and think deep.
To all those single ladies out there, know that just because you don't find love, does not mean that you are not worthy of it.
