Fashionable young girls and poor husbands
The problem is that some of the most fashionable young girls are also the ones with the poorest husbands. What can be done?

I'd like to propose a solution: make it illegal for men to have more than one wife.

It's not clear how many wives a man needs. I think it should be at least as many as he can afford, but I don't really know what that number is. If a man has two wives and they both get divorced, then he will have three wives in all; but if they stay married and are happy together, then they will each have one husband and one wife; so it will work out fine in the end.

But what if one of his wives dies? Well, then he can marry another woman who loves him and whom he loves, but who doesn't love him very much because she already has two husbands of her own (or maybe she doesn't even know about them). So this seems like an improvement over my original proposal: there's still only one person whose happiness matters to him, instead of two; but now there's also only one other person whose happiness matters

Fashionable young girls and poor husbands

The fashion of the day is to marry for money.

To a young woman who has always been independent, it is a shock to be told that she must accept the protection of a man who may not even love her. She feels cheated and humiliated.

The fashionable young girl knows what she wants--a husband who comes from a good family, with money and prestige. She wants someone to take care of her when she grows old; someone who will be proud of her; someone who will give her children and grandchildren.

The rich and powerful often find it hard to resist the charms of lovely young girls. They may even be willing to marry them on a whim. But how do you know if your daughter is just another pretty face in a sea of pretty faces?

Her father. If he approves, then she's probably not just another pretty face. She might need some work, but if you think she could make something of herself, then there's no reason not to give her the chance.

Her mother. If her mother thinks she's good enough and doesn't have any objections, then go ahead and marry her off!

The girl herself! If she wants to get married, then go ahead and marry her off!

In many countries, young women are becoming more and more independent. They are choosing careers over marriage, holding onto their education and independence longer than their mothers and grandmothers before them. This is a revolution that has taken place in most societies in the world over the last few decades.

In China, for example, young women are now marrying much later than they have in previous generations – often only after they have finished college or even university. And they are marrying less often than before: while 29% of all marriages were between first cousins in 1990, by 2004 this had fallen to 15%.

This trend is not unique to China – it has been seen around the world. In Japan, for example, the number of cohabiting couples rose from 1% in 1985 to 7% by 1999 (despite official attempts to discourage such relationships). In Germany there were 11m people living together unmarried in 1991; by 2003 there were 20m people living together unmarried in Germany (about one-fifth of all couples).
