People from different cultures often see freedom of religion as a threat and are afraid of the varying views in Western societies.Ī recent study of Indians from ages 18 to 34 showed almost 60 percent of the married women surveyed didn’t work, and 41 percent of respondents either fully or somewhat agreed with the statement of “It’s not right for women to work after marriage.” In the 70 years of India’s independence, the standard culture of marriage has not changed all that much. Indian tradition is crucial to their society and arranged marriage is part of historical Indian culture. Parents often arrange marriages because doing so will fortify that their child stays attentive in their religious beliefs.
There are several reasons as to why parents believe arranged marriages benefit the situation of finding a mate. It is a hit or miss when it comes to the idea of arranged marriages and despite their experience, parents do not always choose the correct partner for their children.
After refusing the marriage, Reddy discussed her decision with her parents which they understood and trusted her discernment. She felt as if she had to put on a facade of somebody completely different. She did not feel any connection with Raj and the only thing they shared in common was their heritage. Her parents wanted to arrange her marriage and although she would avoid the subject, Reddy finally gave in to go on a date with a potential husband to satisfy her parents. For CNN writer, Pallavi Reddy, shared her experience with arranged marriage and was not the most pleasant story. The idea of parents being able to find more compatible mates for their children is not always true, however. Parents believe that arranged marriages can be more thriving, flourishing and long lasting compared to love marriages. They believe they can make better, less impetuous choices regarding a reconcilable, and often financially stable mate than their child will. Parents who favor arranged marriages believe that they are more adept and impartial than their children when it comes to finding a potential husband or wife. The arranged marriage is a contract between families which leaves the individuals that will potentially get married without any choice. Arranged marriages are a complicated subject, and the idea of it is usually perceived as an issue for human rights where one loses the right to freedom of choice. Other parents may exile or disown their children if they refuse. Children entangled in the web of arranged marriages can lead to fear and resentment. Although some parents sometimes understand if their children do not favor their paired mate, they still might feel pressured to get married. Arranged marriages can work if your willing to, love marriages also survive but depending on the situation and as someone rightly said above sometimes people jump into marriage without thinking because they think they are in love, that's when problems arise in a love marriage.The idea of parents finding a compatible mate is not always true, however, according to Pallavi Reddy. Whereas in an arranged marriage, 95% of the time, the in-law's family loves you, and I personally would find it more peaceful to have a marriage where the whole family loves you rather than only the husband.
There may come a situation where the husband or wife has to choose between their spouse or their own family, and the peace of the family becomes constrained.
So if we are not on speaking terms with our in-law's family, it will be very hard to have a peaceful happy marriage. What they don't understand is that 'we marry a whole family, not merely the person'. Lol! Yes, Indian serials tell us more than we need to know about love marriages! I think one of the main problems with some love marriages is that if people like each other, but if the families don't approve of the marriage, they still go along with it.
