However, this preference somehow turns into societal pressure. And this societal pressure becomes more burdensome for women.

Societies all throughout the world have put a lot of pressure on females to get married early throughout history. Several cultures hold the view that a woman’s main life goal is to marry and have children, and if she does not do so by a particular age, she is either flawed or insufficient. Being expected to get married before turning 25 is one of the most prevalent ways society puts pressure on girls.

And with the emergence of social media, this patriarchal idea has become mainstream. While it is unfortunate that some people continue to spread false and outdated ideas, it is quite refreshing that some of them even receive the most appropriate answer. Something similar recently happened.

A Twitter user sent out a sexist tweet

Recently, a Twitter user asserted that women should prioritize getting married before reaching 25 since they would find it hard to find a spouse from a wealthy family beyond that age. Taking to Twitter, he wrote,

Sisters should try getting married under 25. Trust me once you get past this age, you stop getting proposals and worse you get rejected, unless you belong to a super rich family or you earn well. Other than that no Man will really be considering a girl past this age.

Not only this, but he also bashed feminists and justified his comments shamelessly

He added,

Don’t let your studies or profession be an obstruction to marriage. Don’t let the feminists sh !t eat your brain. look around and see the reality

He again tried to justify his comments by indirectly blaming Muslim society for being like that

He added,

This is a general thing that’s particularly seen in Muslim communities. Of course there are exceptions. For men there isn’t any restriction, if he earns well he can easily get married even if he is 40 or more. It is what it is

This is not only a misogynistic and narrow-minded perspective, but it is also completely untrue. It’s crucial to ignore any social pressures that try to determine a person’s value based on their age or relationship status because there is no age limit for falling in love and developing a good relationship.

Just like men, women should be allowed to make their own decisions about their personal lives and relationships without worrying about social pressure or being judged.
