Marriage is/is not an outdated institution
Dear audience,
I am here to discuss about marriage. I would like you to ask yourself: „Is marriage an outdated institution?“ I would say that it is, but I would prefer a word „special“. Marriage is a rare sight , you don´t see the whole package every day: bachelor party, wedding ceremony, big fluffy white dress , bridesmaids, wedding march – „Here comes the bride“ and afterwards big celebration party. But why is marriage such a rare occasion?
Firstly, women are more independant. It is not the time where women sit at home doing housework , cooking or taking care of the children anymore. Nowadays most of the women have gone out from home to build a career and discover the world. There are a lot of women who are famous or on top of their career. For example Birgit Õigemeel, who doesn´t know her, she is not married , but she is really successful in her singing career . This takes all their time. They have to concentrate on their work 24/7. Thats why marriage has been left in the backround and the priority is building up a career.
Secondly, (this time of century ) nowadays couples are just living together instead of marriage, because it is easier that way. For example my two cousins and two neases (loovad) famlily, but not single one of them is married. It is almost like try-out, to see if living together will work out or not. Also if something goes wrong, then it takes less time and money to brake up. In my point of view the choice to live together without marriage may also be one of the reasons why people are so easygoing and give up so easlily.
Thirdly, to get married in a church you need to be blessed, but there are less and less people who are blessed in this time of century. For example I am one of those people who is not blessed.This leaves only one more option and that is ordinary official ceremony – registration . More and more my generation people are using the last method . For example one of my classmates relative one day appeared behind her mothers door and said: „We are now married!“ But can you say that registration is really getting married or is it just one way to own the same last name and property? Well, this is one of those things that everyone has to think out for themselves.
Nowadays the word „marriage“ does not own the same meaning as before , now it is more like just registration and eating cake with your family or closest friends . Marriages like before are such a rare sight, thats why the word „marriage“ for me comes with the word „special“. I hope that the old traditions will not disappear and keep on going , no matter what the life brings us.
Thank you.
