A Girl Dreams And Problems .... part 1

modern married woman experiences (4.1)

      With all the freedom  the modern woman enjoys,could it possibly be true that marriage is harder today than it was in generations past.
             Surely the freedom to work ,raisechildren,have a social life and be in charge of ones own finances is a bonus or does  too much choice ultimately lead to matrimonial dissatisfaction?
                        Married life has changed remarkably since 1940 s .until 1940s ,marriage has viewed asa contract far more binding than it is now.the reality was once they were married ,most women had few opportunities to be independent and fulfill their needs and dreams outside the home .society had a very clear view of what was acceptable and this was generally based on worked well for the children and husband.
            Married women were not encouraged to have independent means,once you were married ,work opportunities were significantly limited and the man was expected to provide .women received a fraction if the pay that men did for during the same job.
                     When a marriage was not working whatever reason,women were expected to suck it up ,accept the will of god and make the best of even the most loveless or abusive relationships.fortunately,circumstances have changed and women have a far greater range of choices.
             Does a wealth of choices make things easier for the midern married women?
              In one way its easier for people to end a marriage than ever before .its been my experience that couples find this to be a double edged sword ,as the pressure to stay together diminishes,the pressure for the marriage to match up to the individuals perception of what a good marriage is greatly increases.

Why? The answer is complex .but i think there are some reasons .
               Reasons and solutions will be discussed in the next  part
