Week 13 discussion - Question 2

I do believe that marriage and relationships have evolved so much over time, especially in my less-conservative generations. Nowadays, people's views on marriage are definitely not as traditional as before. There are more and more women, surprisingly, who do not feel the need to get married anymore. Back then, women are looked at as men's property and that the only goal they had was to get married because that's what they are meant to do. In this day and age, women choose not to get married because they are independent and can hold their own. I predict as time goes on, this will change even more and women will realize more that they do not a man or marriage at all in their life. I also predict (and highly hope!) that over the next 50 years, gay marriage will not become an issue anymore. Many homosexuals are starting to bravely come out nowadays and the more they all stand together and unite can really change people's perspective especially because it really shouldn't matter to anyone else who someone wants to marry.
