“I want to marry only after I get a job. If I get a good job then I will earn money<br />

and I can improve my life and then marry. After marriage it’s not possible to get<br />

a job; some people don’t allow [you to get a job] and say do housework only.<br />

My family told me to get married now, but I told them that I want to first get a<br />

good job and then marry. So, now they have agreed.”<br />

(Unmarried girl, India)<br />
