As a traditional custom, bride price plays an important role in marriage. However, when the bride price becomes a heavy burden in marriage, it can cause distress to marriageable men and women and even hinder their path to true love.
To break through this traditional shackle, here are some practical solutions designed to help people break free from the bride price and move towards a happy marriage.
Raise public awareness of the bride price issue through education and awareness-raising. Let people understand that bride price is not a necessity for marriage, but a traditional custom. At the same time, it is emphasized that the true value of marriage lies in the emotional foundation and common life goals of both parties. We need to make more people aware of the true meaning of the bride price, which should be a blessing and a symbol, not a material exchange. Through various channels such as **, community activities, school courses, etc., we can spread the rational view of marriage and love, emphasizing that the true value of marriage lies in the love and responsibility of both parties, rather than money and material. In this way, people can gradually abandon outdated concepts and form a healthy attitude towards marriage and love.
* Relevant laws and regulations can be introduced to regulate the amount and form of the bride price to prevent excessive consumption and comparison. A maximum amount of bride price may be set, excessive sums of money under the pretext of marriage may be prohibited, and penalties may be imposed for violations. This can not only curb the trend of comparison, but also protect the rights and interests of both parties to the marriage, especially the rights and interests of the woman. At the same time, it is also indispensable to improve the legal system of marriage. We should clarify the legal scope of the bride price to ensure that the property rights and interests of both parties to the marriage are protected.
Families are encouraged to negotiate in an open and equal manner, and jointly determine the amount and form of the bride price. Avoid unilaterally imposing pressure and make marriage a common choice and expectation for both parties. At the same time, we should also advocate simplifying the wedding process, reducing unnecessary expenses, and returning marriage to its essence.
Marriage and love institutions can spread the correct concept of marriage and love through various channels, and guide people to pay attention to more important factors such as inner quality and personality charm.
At the same time, young people are encouraged to establish a sense of independence, adhere to their own view of marriage and love, and do not blindly follow others. When faced with unreasonable bride price demands, we must have the courage to refuse and protect our dignity and rights. At the same time, advocating the notarization of prenuptial assets is also an effective solution. By clarifying the property rights and interests of both parties, disputes and conflicts arising from the bride price can be reduced.
Young people are encouraged to innovate the form of wedding, combining traditional customs with modern elements. For example, holding public welfare weddings, group weddings, etc., reduce material investment, and pay attention to emotional expression and spiritual sustenance.
Other forms of blessings and gifts can be promoted as an alternative to the traditional bride price, for example, by turning the bride price into a joint entrepreneurship for the newlyweds**, in a way that the newlyweds can start a new life full of opportunities and challenges together, and create a bright future of their own together.
Such a choice requires both parties to have a common entrepreneurial intention and goals, as well as a common plan and expectation for the future life. By starting a business together, newlyweds can grow up together, develop mutual understanding and trust, and create their own wealth and career together.
Through social and supervision, pay attention to and report on the issue of bride price. Criticize and criticize the phenomenon of excessive pursuit of bride price, form pressure, and prompt people to reflect and change.
Breaking the shackles of tradition and finding a new chapter of true love requires a lot of hard work and cooperation. Through measures such as popularization of education, legislative norms, family communication, guidance on the concept of marriage and love, social supervision, and innovative forms of marriage, we can gradually change the troubles caused by the bride price issue, so that marriageable men and women can find true love in a freer and more equal environment.
