Hi, im currently doing my hsc and i need help.
For those who are undertaking the Society and Culture Course, you'd probably know what i mean, which is the PIP( Personal Interest Project). I attempting to for a focus group within this website.

So what i need is opinions, for the following;
What do people think of marriage?
Do you really want to get marriage?
Do you know who you want to live the rest of your life with?
And will you change your mind?
What do you think about arranged marriages?
Whould you consider to have an arranged marriage?
Those whom want to remain single, what are the reasons, and why?
etc. etc.

Feel free to add an opinion regarding this topic, your opinion will be very much appreciated.

THANK YOU

UM, ok can ppl elaborate on wat they are talking about.

Because, i am totally against marriage, because um maybe because i have to live with my father and brother. And i think that is enough punishment.

So those of you would do want to get married pleaz elaborate on the questions.

No, these are just basic questions to get the focus group to start giving me opinions on what they think about marriage. Where they plan to get married, or plan to stay single etc...

What do people think of marriage?

i personally, because im religious think its great, i have also been lucky that my parents are still together and are happy so i havnt had to suffer any negativities to do with the subject.

Do you really want to get marriage?

i cant wait to get married, feminists would hate me, but i want to get married and have kids, if i had to quit my job and be a stay at home mum i would gladly. i would love to know i had the love of someone that much, not that i'v not had the chance to experienced love and relationships etc, but yeah, i duno...if you could make the qu's more specific i'd be happy to give a further point of view. :)

Do you know who you want to live the rest of your life with?

not yet, hopefully some day...and if not...well i'll probly adopt...hehehehe :rolleyes:

And will you change your mind?

No, i wouldnt say 'i do,' to someone if i didnt think i could spend the rest of my life with them...

What do you think about arranged marriages?

i disagree with them, and i feel for the people that are forced into them..a decision as big as this needs to be made by the individual...

Whould you consider to have an arranged marriage?

No, wen i marry i want it to be for love... :)

1,2 Yes i want to get married one day,I like the idea of getting married & waking up next to my husband everyday,spending the rest of my life with someone I love, and starting a family together is something i want to do... but i'm not in any rush to get married.
3-not yet
4-
5-I disagree with arranged marriages, people should not be forced to marry someone who they do not choose to spend the rest of their lives with.
6-No, also I would never be placed in the position in the first place..

What do people think of marriage?
I think its a great thing. It bonds two people together legally, but psychologically, romantically aswell. Marriage is beautiful. It can prove how much teo people love each other, and if they are committed to being together forever.plus sharing your bed every night with the guy you are in love is pretty special, same with waking up to them, and knowing you will be with them till "death do us part"
Do you really want to get marriage?
SO much!
Do you know who you want to live the rest of your life with?
yeah im pretty set :)
And will you change your mind?
with previous boyfriends, i could say "i want to be with you forever"..and somehow know it wouldnt happen. but with my current boyfriend, things are really different and i honestly cant see anything changing.
What do you think about arranged marriages?
well its part of certain religions, and i respect their beliefs in arranged marriage...i dont like the idea of them, but i respect it.
Whould you consider to have an arranged marriage?
probably not, but its not my religion or culture or anything to have an arranged marriage, if it was part of my religion i might think differently about it.
Those whom want to remain single, what are the reasons, and why?
im happily taken :)

***marriage is 2 people..in a contract with oneanother, binded by love..both have rights duties and responsibilities towards one another...dependant on eachother..sharing lives together and reproducing etc..

Do you really want to get marriage?
***hell yeah

Do you know who you want to live the rest of your life with?
***yes i know who..but i dont know if it will be him

And will you change your mind?
***possibly..who knows..anything could happn between now and then

What do you think about arranged marriages?
***i think they're fine to an extent..no one can force you to marry anyone..but if its an arranged marriage and you accept no worries..in most cases..studies show..they work out just great,

Whould you consider to have an arranged marriage?
***if im not married by 30 i will arrange formyself to have an arranged marriage..(hopefully it wont come down to that)

What do people think of marriage? I believe it's a spiritual union between two souls, combining to become a single unit. It is also a legal and religious binding.
Do you really want to get married? Yes, one day, if I find the right person.
Do you know who you want to live the rest of your life with? No.
And will you change your mind? Not on marriage, no.
What do you think about arranged marriages? Fine for some spiritualities; not mine, however.
Would you consider to have an arranged marriage? No, I like my civil liberties too much.
Those whom want to remain single, what are the reasons, and why? I don't choose to be single.

There you go :)

Experiences

if anyone has any cultural experiences, or experiences of marriage, maybe through family, please do add them. As well as challenges people might come across in the process of getting married.

Thanx
