Assalamua alaikum Brothers and Sisters!
So, I came across a poll, which had intrigued me tremendously; it was aimed at the brothers, but it didn’t have sufficient comments from them. Only two brothers commented, and the rest were the sisters. So, your probably wondering what the question was? Well here goes: ‘Men: do you think that now adays it’s hard to find a woman?’ Out of the 11 comments; only 2 comments were from the brothers, and the rest were from the sisters. What I want to know is why did the brothers vote ‘yes’? This was the highest poll result. I know that there is somewhat a connection through friends, family, different circles of acquaintances, etc to help you find a suitable wife. I never thought it was that hard for guys to find a spouse till now. Only 44% voted yes; 27% voted no; 19% voted not sure and 10% voted don’t care much.
One of the brothers on this poll commented ‘in my point of view brothers may only find it hard caz they have high demands lol instead of just being going for a pious muslimah.’ So, brothers have high demands, huh? I was thinking earlier before reading this comment that it might be because ‘women’ have high demands and expectations of men, like, big house, being financially stable, having fancy cars, etc. However, I’m slightly surprised, but if you really look at it; men do have high demands, just as women do for men. I do to a large extent agree with him, because in my opinion men usually do look at beauty first rather than looking at piety. What are your views on this?
To further extend this question; I want to know is there any barriers that prevent one finding a spouse? This question applies to all. Any feedback to this blog will be highly appreciated. Jazakhullah khair!
Please note: this is not my poll question, it is not from me; I just found this issue interesting. Whoever made this poll I applaud you. Thanks, for giving me the inspiration for writing this blog. Sisters are welcome to contribute, as well.
