Marriage

Everyone has their different views on marriage. It defers from different cultures. From the reading I learned that in India, they have completely different views on marriage than we do in the U.S. They believe that marriage should be arrange, rather than what they call "love match" which is how it is in the U.S. The article describes a young girl with a degree having to wait for her parents to arrange her marriage. She does not want to be with someone she barely knows. What if it doesn't work out? They should have a right to choose who they want to be with. They should fall in love just like everyone else gets to do. I personally do not believe in arranged marriages. A match should be made by people who love each other. What happens when they do not get along at fight all the time with their kids around? They are forcibly stuck with that person for the rest of their life. The U.S. is not much better though. Now days people get married for a couple months and then get a divorce because it is so easily to be done. Marriage isn't taken seriously like it used to be. When you marry someone you should be with them for forever and they should be who you want to be with. Some people make marriage look like a joke, some-what similar to a middle school relationship. After reading the articles I learned a lot of different views about marriage and how different cultures marry.
