Raven(@Ravenismeee):When a man reaches his thirties without getting married, people often say he's focusing on his career, building his future, or waiting for the right person. When a woman makes the same decision, relatives start asking whether she's too independent, too demanding, or worried about becoming too old for marriage. A man is allowed to take his time figuring out what he wants, while a woman is often made to feel as though every year brings her closer to some deadline. Marriage is a personal decision, not a race against a woman's age. Why is a man's independence celebrated while a woman's independence is treated like a problem that needs to be solved?
