For the research that was due today, the trend I picked was Delaying marriage. I came up with many interesting articles. One talked about how people put off marriage because of financial reasons such as student loans or credit card debt. One I really found interesting was an article about how women in Beijing China are putting off marriage because of the pressure from there families and once they marry, in the culture that they come from, women don't seek higher education or do other things of there own free will. I read an article about LDS young men and how one 25 year old male was more than happy with being single and didn't mind it staying that way. I found many more articles that had similar messages. Overall, I discovered that both Non-LDS and LDS individuals are delaying marriage.

I don't understand an LDS man wanting to be single! It just doesn't make any sense to me. I know some people come from families of divorce, but in my husband's family everyone is on at least their second marriage but he wasn't hesitant at all to get married. He wanted to spend his life with a woman! Not wasting it hanging out with his buddies.
ReplyDeleteI TOTALLY agree! I mean, to obtain the highest degree in the Celestial Kingdom a man has to be married. Doesn't make much sense to me either.
