[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t live in DC anymore so the culture is different but. The richest family I know has a daughter who is a senior in college and already married and the college sophomore daughter is getting married over the summer. They aren’t super religious IMO but they do go to church. I support young people getting married but dang, that’s early! Lol.[/quote]

No wealthy person i know married before college. Many got engaged in college and married right after but ZERO undergrad married during college.[/quote]

I think things have changed a bit and that’s what OP is referencing. For a while it seemed like women were almost pressured to stay single and get married later to enjoy their 20s but I think there’s a little bit of a swing in the other direction where younger people now are looking to get married earlier. Especially those that are from wealthy families that can support their lifestyle. I’m not saying this is true in all or even most cases but it’s definitely something that pops up on social media and I think influences young people‘s view on marrying and having kids early and that being a positive thing.

There’s something about the aesthetic of having the handsome husband and cute kids all in your 20s and early 30s. That combined with the pretty house, the nice vacations, etc communicates success and happiness. I think this is shown more often than it was in the past as an aspirational ideal. A lot of this is, of course, social media driven but it’s also not something I disagree with… I take no issue with marrying in your mid 20s.[/quote]
