Marriage is a relation between man and woman to have legitimate sex and legitimate children but above these goals
it is to give mutual support and contribute to mutual success. In India the impact of marriage on women can be
more visible than that of men because Indian woman has to leave her parents home and move into her husband’s
home after marriage. This means a complete change of environment. This study sought to trace some of the main
features of the impact of this change among 250 married women of Uttar Pradesh. In particular it sought possible
answers to questions such as the right age for the marriage and to evaluate the changes in behavior of the women
after marriage. It was found that marriage age after 25 was better for the self development of women, that marriage
did develop women to become more responsible, that there was behavioral change of woman after marriage, and
that married women perceived a greater satisfaction with life. Nevertheless for further empowerment married
women should acquire better skills in decision making, communication and problem solving. |
