婚前協議 The Agreement Before Marriage

In the old China, when the couple gets married, it is naturally committed that the bride will share the bridegroom’s fortune, the couple’s property is owned by each other. While as the time changes, the women’s situation gets much better than before, they can make their own living by themselves, women want to share the equal duty and wage with men. Today women are getting more and more independent, they don’t need to count on the men on economy, so they want to make some agreement before marriage, it is always about the money, the women want to keep their own money, even marry, their wage is separated with their husbands’. I think this is a good idea, people keep their own stuff in the marriage, each has their own space. What’s more, today people feel unsecure to the marriage, once they are divorced, they don’t have much trouble. The agreement before marriage is way of protecting oneself.

在以前的中國，當情侶結婚的時候，很自然地，新娘被默認爲可以分享新郎的財產，他們的財產彼此擁有。然而隨着時代的變遷，女人的地位比以前得到了很大的改善，他們可以自己掙錢，想要和男人分享平等的義務和工資。今天女人變得越來越獨立，她們不再需要依靠男人的經濟，因此她們想要婚前協議，這總是關於錢，女人想要獨立擁有自己的錢，即使結婚，她們的薪水和丈夫是分開的。我覺得這是個好主意，人們在婚姻裏自行管理自己的東西，各有空間。而且，今天人們對婚姻缺乏安全感，一旦他們離婚，就不會有很多糾葛。婚前協議是自我保護的一種方法。
