This is just my belief only, I believe it is a very personal choice.The days of woman having have to get married died off quite a while ago.The days are gone where it says a woman has to have a wedding band on her finger to produce babies anymore, all though that would probably be a good idea, to bring back some structure & commitment to a solid , stable relationship.It is not a case of who has to get married first any more eighter, as either sex can be more anxious to do so than the other.Marriage is not always about (ONLY) having children, people do get married JUST because they are in love, & choose to do so.PRIMARILY, yes it is most womens dream to get married, have a nice home, and have babies, but then there is the contradiction, that there are women who do choose not to get married, have babies a career, & have all the trimmings of marriage, but to be free, single,have the babies, & continue on with out the man.I do not think that a woman has to get married any more, nor do I feel men take there time/leave it as late as possible, this comes down to a personal choice, if a man finds the right partner, or if he chooses to continue to build a structered,planned financial life before he gets married.It's all up to the induvidual.If the man is avoiding getting married , there usually is a very good reason, as it is with a woman.The word (PERSONAL CHOICE) plays a huge part in this question.I do hope I haven't offended any one, this is just my personal thoughts on this subject. EACH TO THEIR OWN , free will is our GIVEN right.

Throughout history, the normal course has been an older man and a younger woman. This is because a man has generally needed to be established first in his profession in order to pay dowry.
Also, a woman's best reproductive years are in her early twenties, when the eggs are fresh.
My own opinion is that if the milk wasn't free, most men would buy the cow.

A women does NOT have to get married. It is a Male Religious custom.To insure that the male family line is pure.In pre Jewish/Christian time women had many husband/lovers.At this time the family line followed the female.There are still some cultures where this is the case.
I for one long for those days and have avoided marriage many times.

I can't speak for all women but I got married because I crave acceptance by peers and society in general. If you keep within what is considered right and legal then no one can criticise or ostracise you. My children cannot say I do one thing and say another! Ha! I don't have to give embarassing explanations to government or school officials about illegally obtained children.

By nature, women nurture. They felt the need to get married, find security & stability, be loved by husbands, and perhaps, have children too.
Men, by nature, provide. Apart from marriage, biologically men likes to mate due to laws of pro-creation of healthy beautiful babies to keep the human race going. If they do not feel the timing is right for them to settle down & provide, they simply avoid marriage. Men, by nature, likes space & freedom. If a man found someone that he can forgo part of his space & freedom, he's ready for marriage & (hopefully) be responsible & committed. If a man is not ready, there's no point in forcing him into it. Because he knows he needs to responsible & committed if he chooses to settle down.

THEY DON'T!!! In fact they SHOULDN'T if the words HAVE TO are involved at all. Love yourself enough to find out what is in your OWN heart and soul. Whatever your position, you're not the first, or only one to be there. If your man doesn't want to marry...trust his hesitation. But mostly, appreciate his honesty!
Good luck in finding out what you really want.
Sincerely, Sha
