The new generation seems attracted to a new type of relationship where young people find advantages other than couple life. Here are the real reasons why they decide to unite (often with friends).
Marriage has always been synonymous with commitment to life with the loved one. A well anchored tradition, whose customs differ according to the origins and which are transmitted from generation to generation. And if marriage is above all the symbol of love, the young generation no longer sees it in the same eye. More and more couples are united for very different reasons, simply because they see it as an opportunity. Others refuse to follow the injunctions of the company that it is necessary to marry and start a family. They also believe that many couples have united without really loving each other …
The under thirty are indeed more and more inclined to choose a practical, even opportunistic marriage. A trend called “Lavender Marriage” and which has been launched, according to Business Insiderby Tiktokeur Robbie Scott. The latter has indeed launched a call for candidates to marry the person who would above all allow him to reduce his electricity bills and his taxes. Nor is it a question of marrying the first person that we come across, but of uniting with a person of trust. Young people would therefore not be, nowadays, not against marrying their best friend for example if it can help them to face inflation!
The Lavender Marriage, according to them, would have other advantages such as accessing a credit more easily to buy real estate. Others, tired by meeting applications, see it as a good way to live in the company of a loved one, like a couple who would love each other differently.
This new trend is nevertheless risky on several points. Recall that a marriage is above all a commitment to each other, with legal obligations. In addition, if one of the two people really want to get married, she will have to go through a divorce to be able to pass again before the Mayor. Finally, the romantic feelings that can develop in one or the other person, friends take the risk of not living a reciprocal love, or to spoil a beautiful friendship.
