Re: Daughters
Ok.. see the thing is that..chicks who were your gradmammies eons ago were living under a totally different paradigm with expectations around getting married and squeezing puppies out asap to work on the farm. What worked back then doesn’t work now. Nothing is static..not even your grandmother…Betchya $10 your grandmammy would be doing the lambada if she was born and raised in South Beach. Or even lived there now. 
Re: Daughters
Let me make it clear that I consider marriage to be a fulfilling experience in one's life & thus should be encouraged by parents. I will definitely teach my children to values of a married life & will probably nag them about it (not the whole world though) when I consider them to be ready for marriage. But the last thing I want to do is to make my daughter(s) emotionally dependent on someone else. Her primary goal in life is to be a good person & as long as I can bring her up with that vision, she will realize that marriage is just a part of life.

Re: Daughters
You have no idea what it is like to be a girl of marriageable age in US/UK!! Everywhere you go, people have just one question for ya: beta shadi nahi hui aapki ab tak? Plus parents going nuts, trying to find a match for you. Dont even get me started on this!
Re: Daughters
^ Yeah, I just found out today that my cousin in Pakistan is getting married. She's one year older than me. So, my mom was kinda looking down - i can read her mind really - and I knew exactly what she was thinking. I came out and said it "Ammi, she's done with whatever parhai she wanted to do and she's settled into a job. Its great that she is now moving onto marriage. I can't afford that right now". My mother actually looked sad!
I guess I'll be entering that phase now. I can already feel that the next few years will be filled with my parents attempting to introduce me to "nice" young guys.
Re: Daughters
you mean 'nice pigs'?
Re: Daughters
Yes that is how I would see them.

Re: Daughters
Now it’s farz on me since I’m in love. winky winky
Otherwise, all I’ve known since the beginning of my life is that it’s sunnah, not farz. Khair, that’s a different matter chanda, leave it. Mullahs make it farz because unn ka apna faeda nikalta hai na dass dass bachay paida karnay ka and more than one shadi karne ka rolleyes
