Girls - Get married first, and then focus on your career


A girl’s birth starts the phase of endless concerns and efforts for her parents. In the society she is expected to get married at an early age. She is assigned the role of the ideal daughter-in-law for the family she would be gracing with her presence.

Some accept the rules set in by the society while some of them choose the to build up their career. No matter what the path is, things are never smooth and easy. So let’s see how the two different perspectives towards the marriage and career can make a difference in a girl’s life.

Yes

1. The past shows that once the women enters her career then it is not easy for her to take out time of the work life to focus on her personal life. She fails to understand the right time to get married and often has to face many problems at a later stage.

2. The most important factor that cannot be ignored these days is the problem of infertility. The present generation of women is at a higher risk of infertility. Getting married at a right time can allow her to have kids without any major complications. Stress adds up to the reasons behind infertility and with the increasing age, it keeps getting difficult to conceive, further adding to the pressure.

3. Marriage brings in the emotional stability in a girl’s life. Choosing the career over marriage can create problems of finding right partner at later stage leading to insecurity in her life.

4. As and when the girl progresses in her career, her expectations about the profile of her partner increase. But finding a partner who scores well on all the parameters, especially when you are in 30s is not an easy task.

5. No matter how well placed a female is in our society, if she is not married she is considered to be a burden for the family.

6. Getting married early gives both the partners an opportunity to grow together and handle all the ups and downs of life together. This builds a base for better understanding.

No

1. There is no guarantee that a girl will find a right partner in her early age. Moreover the time required to find a partner is not known. So career can’t be put at stake in the process of finding the right partner.

2. The way the society is following the western culture has changed the way the girls see their married life. Society is witnessing early death of marriages leading to divorce. In such a scenario it is important to focus on career rather than entering into the marriage bonds.

3. There is always a risk of stalling growth once a girl is married. She is expected to carry all the responsibilities, often compromising with her career dreams.

4. In today's world girls have proved their ability and excellence and are working as good entrepreneurs, great managers and committed employees at the corporate level. An early start to the career builds a strong base for her long term success.

5. Getting married after making a stable career adds to the security and self respect of the female. Her level of maturity is also higher if she has seen the outside world.

Conclusion

A girl has to always face the dilemma what first - Marriage or Career. No one can judge as to which choice is right or which is wrong as in most of the cases it is the individual perceptions which make a difference in making the decisions.

  • It is always said that a girl is given equal opportunities as a boy. But as it comes to marriage, girls are being considered as a burden. It is not at acceptable that a girl has to sacrifice her career and bright future for marriage. Moreover, if a girl gets married after getting a goods and decent job she becomes independent.
    She has the full right to decide the right time to get married. And at a matured age she can handle things with good ease. If a girl can handle the responsibilities in coorporate world and other fields, even in armed forces then she can handle her own family also.
    Her career wont a problem for her.

  • It is totally unacceptable to point different view for setting up the career for a girl, than a boy. The career is the ripe fruit for which anybody strives hard in life. Such an important thing remains in the air, with the height of instability in a girl’s life.

    A girl is given equal opportunities to get educated, then why such a partiality in setting up her own career? The life takes a deep turn with the marriage in the girl’s life, in case she doesn’t get settled in her career prior to marriage. She becomes dependent and such a situation is taken advantage of, to suppress her qualification and the entire hardship that she underwent throughout her life.

    It is totally injustice done to the girls to devoid them of their share of success. This is nothing but a civilized way of suppressing a girl, playing with her emotions and career. Even if there comes up a lot many explanations in favour of the notion, still the fact remains a injustice done to the girl’s life.
