MARRIAGE & GENDER

“Is marriage a burden to men and a business to women?”

Anyone who sees marriage as either a burden or a business isn’t getting it right.

It shows a fundamental misunderstanding of marriage and relationships when you see your spouse as someone who weighs you down or someone to exploit for money. This goes for both men and women.

Now, I’m not saying no one does this. I’m sure there are men who see marriage as a burden, and women who consider it some kind of business, but that mindset is not healthy. Unless they confront exactly why they think like that, they can’t do right by their partners or expect to maintain genuinely happy marriages.
