    • States the dangers of
    adolescent sexuality.

    The Resignation

    • There are three conditionalities


    • The first is that the partner should be of
    appropriately matched class status, with the
    man, if possible in a position of relative
    authority or seniority
    • The second conditionality is parental approval of the
    relationship
    • The final conditionality is no pre-marital sex

    20XX presentation title 10


    Making commitments
    • Live in relationship does harm
    • Escapism from the responsibilities of
    family and home
    • Elders do not actively intervene

    20XX presentation title 11


    Hidden Depths

    • Problems in arranged Marriage


    • Sometimes what seems to be wrong isn't wrong
    at all
    • Sometimes listening to parents is fine.

    20XX presentation title 12


    CONCLUSION
    • In this story of romantic courtship which was in the women's
    Era she talks about multiple and complex trajectories
    • We see that one engagement does not have the sacramental
    status of a marriage.
    • Thus once the marriage has taken place the problem is to
    clear misunderstandings and ensuring couple
    accommodations with each other
    • It is different in the case of engaged couples to decide on
    whether and what conditions should the marriage ahead as
    planned
