These days, it is often heard about” Better marry well than do well”, especially focusing on the contemporary female college students. But to be frank, I can’t agree with it for the following reasons.
Firstly, it is known that the topic emerges because of the influence of our deeply held culture traditions. In early period of former times, the only life purpose for females was to be a good housewife because they had no chances to have a job, their fate tightly connected with their husbands. But after a long-term struggle for rights, nowadays, more and more females have the right to work and even some of them have made great achievements. As a female, she should be jealous of the hard-earned rights.
Secondly, in the realistic life, the inequality and sex discrimination are still existed, females face various challenges in their career and life. I'm not opposed to those who choose a rich man to marry, but my suggestions should be given to them, a female should take a little risk in choosing this kind of marriage, because when she has this idea to get easier marriage, she will possibly be a kind of marriage merchant in a way, signing on such a marriage contract means she should firstly value all of her possession to this marriage, such as appearance, acquirements and educational level as well, which can make her be outstanding enough to attract those rich men. And she should also know how to avoid divorce and maintain a happy marriage with her husband. It is known that economic base determines the superstructure. If a woman doesn’t have money earned by her own, she will never be really equal with her husband.
Thirdly, to do well is the only side that one can control by herself. Without thinking of marry well, she can work well, be independent, have a pile of money at her disposal, enhance her self-cultivation, and so on. And I believe that if one can do well by herself, it will be easier for her to marry well, too.
And if someone wants to combine “do well” with “marry well” together, I still believe that work well is the basis of marry well. Do you agree with me? |
