Eh... All this talk abt graduates shld marry people of their calibre is just a scheme to preserve the gene pool.

I say, people shld not be constrained by social norms and be restricted in their choice of lifelong partners.

Forever84 SG

Ok i was thinkin on the lines of
Uni Grad - Old man -no education.

the Bear SG

this "gene pool" thing is scary...

i've seen semi-sentient regurgitators who do not even understand their text come out of universities with great results.. and i've seen brilliant people who can't get a break with anything because they didn't do well in the rigid education system...

but back to the topic, isn't marriage about love?

and in love, what does qualifications gotta do with anything?

society has screwed up and made difficult the lives of so many... like some people i know about.. she's a exec and he sells fish in the market... lots of pressure from lots of people who have no right to say anything... to me, they have every right to hold their heads up! both are making honest livings and love each other, what right does society and evil bastards around them to say they cannot see or love each other?

Rolling Eyes tired..

Hi, I love every sentence that U write BUT it is our society that resulting in all these. Our society basically don't give U a 2nd chance at all. Imagine a guy who is not educated and a gal who is a graduate.

For the guy: people around him will say:Wow, the gal is a graduate and can U support her? This put the guy in a very pressurised situation

For the gal: people around her and even her parents will say: That guy got no future, don't waste your time.

In this end, this relationship will fail/never take place at ll due to all these pressures from the society etc.

How realistic/"Xian Shi" this society had become. This is also part of the reasons why more and more people are staying single. a lot of things can be achieved in th 1st place but due to all these pressure, people choose the easy way out...stay single.

WOohOooooooOooO! Twisted Evil

You lead your own love life - everyone has different definition. Its ok for an uneducated guy to marry a female graduate, PROVIDED every other factors is suitable (character compatability, feelings, chemistry, communication, etc) and one very important point -

The both of them has to look at the same direction. People can say what they want - either one get affected, this relationship will be chaotic.

What the society has become, has little to do with your own love definition. You must have to will to improve (that's for sure), but forget about adapting to whichever current trend - its a vicious cycle. Rolling Eyes
