Will You Marry Me?
August 25, 2010
We choose a person to get married when we want to have a family. However, why do we choose him/her as the one? Maybe lots of reasons come out, while only one decides the whole life.
In the long process of civilization, marriage is a fairly recent development. At first, the focus of the male-female life is survival. Male always be the hunter and the female stayed at home, raised the kids and look after the family.
Later, parents decide the one. They aim at remaining the family intact. They prevent teenagers marry the one outside the clan. Besides, marriage is a preferred method to keep peace between two tribes. The heads of the two tribes would like to strength the bonds by this.
In European royal families, the practice is still kept by encouraging marriages between royalties of other countries. In some primitive cultures, parents can get more cows from the grooms if their daughters are more attractive. In some parts of Africa, men of importance can still have many wives, and women can be bought as slaves.
All people of those examples have little or no choice of a marriage partner. Though they did, they had few prospects to choose from.
After industrial revolution, civilization developed and people found more ways to make a living and in living their lives. Love became the theme of marriage. People expected to fall in love and then live happily with their lovers. Nevertheless people had no idea what love is, the task became very confusing. Sex is often mistaken for love.

After that, the puritan took over the politics, they believe that the only way you could have sex without feeling guilty was to get married. They promised before God and everyone and both of them would be monogamous for life. Later, the Sexual revolution and the women’s rights movement changed all of that.
Nowadays, couples living together before marriage are quite common. It’s kind of a trial marriage, but without the long term commitment.
