Question and Ideas for P&P Essay

Question: What defines the expectations of marriage in society and how do characters react to it? Is it relevent today?

Chatacters: Charlotte & Mr. Collins 

  • Charolette - stong willed, does not care to marry for "status" or "approval", does not feel she should be disempowered 
  • Mr. Collins - selfish, does not marry for the right reasons, objectifies love, continues to conform with societies expectations
  • Today - people still marry for the wrong reasons : immigration and money, men still ask women, look for money and looks not love
