Question

Discuss 2 ways how cultural views can effect relationship

Answer 1

The culture the couple lives in will have expectations upon how the couple should act and think towards each other.

Some cultures expect women to wear covering and not drive. In this example you would see a man who consciously or subconsciously considers himself superior, if nothing else, regarding the things that he is able to do and that she is not.

In western cultures the laws are leveraged to favor to the woman in regard to relationships.

This is shown affecting (in some way great or small) the society in statistics as you see a dramatic decrease in marriage.

Some postulate that the dramatic drop in marriage rates (in Western cultures) is because marriage (contract) offers no benefit to the man and is a major contributor to the drops that are being seen.
