In the past, marriage was declared as the greatest life event for almost every woman, but attitudes and ideas about relationships and personal fulfillment are changing quickly today. Now, however, many women are pursuing alternative futures, ones that are influenced by their personal independence, their aspirations for employment, their emotional health, and evolving social norms. This change does not have to represent a negative attitude towards love or commitment. Instead it often points to a sense of freedom, of seeking to become known and of being purposeful. Knowing these reasons helps to explain how today's relationships and priorities continue to evolve from generation to generation and from culture to culture, not just in these societies but in others as well.
