“Choosing clothes, but not husbands.”
After I read this essay, it reminds me think of Chinese old traditional marriage and society treat women at an unfair way while the arranged marriage still exists nowadays. In Chinese old traditional marriage, most of woman had no right to choose their husbands and the rest of their lives had to live with a man they even didn’t know. The most terrible is that they even can’t devoice with their husbands, or they will be named a bad reputation.
Fortunately, society’s evaluation on marriage is getting much better than before. We have freedom and right to choose the people to get married. Moreover, devoice is not so humilities as before. In my opinion, it means society is getting better on breaking the old traditional because everyone has equal rights to choose their husbands and wife, or even devoice with them that they don’t want to live with.
However, another problem is arisen at present, that is, the pressures from work and economy make people more difficulty to build up a marriage. some of people choose the arranged marriage by their parents or marriage agent. In one word, as society and cultures’ developed, everyone has different opinions and decisions on marriage.

I definitely agree with you
but not only women don't have right to choose their soulmate. men does not have the rights too
in the past, most marriage are onlly depended on parents, in addition nobody has rights to speak, which is terrible.
NOW, who care what parents said, we do what we want, we marry the guy or lady that we really love.
we have more rights to do what we always wanted to do. hHAHAHA
Thank you

so we should appreciate that we are living in a freedom society and we could pursue everything we like.
