A woman recently made a post emphasizing that marriage is indeed an achievement, countering those who claim otherwise because they have not yet found a partner. She celebrated the commitment, partnership, and growth that marriage can represent.
In response, one user controversially stated: “For me what a man needs from women is just children and marriage is not supposed to be permanent.”
This comment reduces marriage to a transactional arrangement centered solely on childbearing and dismisses the broader values of partnership, love, and mutual support. It implies impermanence as the default, undermining the commitment and effort required to build lasting relationships.
Such perspectives trivialize women’s roles and achievements in marriage, framing them merely as providers of offspring rather than equal partners. They also perpetuate cynicism about marriage, suggesting it is expendable rather than a meaningful milestone that requires care, respect, and dedication.
