Why We Have No Plans For Marriage?

Why We Have No Plans for Marriage The Hapsburgs of Austria used marriage to control parts of Germany, Naples, the Southern Serbs, all of Iberia, and the entire Latin American world. Marriage once, in the western world, was mostly about monetary and social gains. As time progressed marriage has become less about money and territory and more about companionship and love. While I am looking for a girlfriend, I have no interest in finding a wife. In contrast by the time my grandfather graduated college he had 2 kids, a wife, and an apartment. Dating, going steady, courting has always been an integral part of college student lives. Since the 1950s though the final end goal of dating has changed. In our generation dating is less, lets see if she
In 1972 the supreme court legalized birth control for all citizens of the country regardless of marital status. The consequences of this monumental ruling caused people to be able to have causal sex with a much lower risk of lasting consequences. It also caused a bigger shift on the attitudes and culture of the nation on sex. This continues to this day with all but two of my friends telling me that they have had sex.

(the class of 2021) We are nearing the age when past generations would get married but none of my peers are married and none have any plans to get married in the near future. This is because historically marriage has had significantly more to do with economic stability than it does currently. Modern marriage is much more about love and companionship. Better access to birth control causes women to be able to have a higher degree of control in their lives. Less unplanned births lead to less forced or premature marriages. A combination of higher amounts of both men a woman attending and graduate college and women making more money than in past generations causes marriage to be pushed further back. A changed attitude on casual sex takes away an old benefit of marriage. The less of our peers that get married young the better our society as a whole will function. So, while she might seem like the one right now you should hold off on buying a
