Ultimate Settlement...........????

I often see that for many not all of the Indians have a wrong idea that marriage is the ultimate settlement in life. This idea is very often for girls and less often for boys. There is a good example for this case also.
The place where I was in till now gives me a very good example to show this.
There was a girl in my neighbourhood. After she completed her twelfth her mom started searching for a groom but she continued study so that no one should say anything. She did her B.A from a nearby college. This means that study was just a means to be saved from the people’s bad comments but ultimately marriage is perfect settlement for them.

Now what I feel about such issues is why does a girl need some help for leading her life. I say this because when we talk of girls, life partner is not a partner but a support to the helpless women but when we talk of a man’s life partner its somebody needed to look after the house and cook food for him. WHY?

good post liked wat u tried to explain ...its true fact that many think that gettin married may lead the life to settlement which is a rong thing....first the settlement should be done from our side...first we should have a source through which we should be able to cope up then the word marriage should come into picture....

its good to open the eyes ....

Yah, it was a belief, it's now changing though. 'coz some time back women won't go for jobs and all, they used to stay at home, now it's certainly changing and the proof is you people.
