Hi everyone.... I know some of you might recognize my name as i've been asking for help regarding brides maids and flowers and such on here lately. But now i need to ask for your assistance in a somewhat different capacity. I am a social work student in my final year of a university degree and I've decided to do one of my major projects this year on
Woman and the effects of
The Institution of Marriage:
Canada / US vs. Third world countries
I wanted to get a sample of what some women expect of themselves and the institution of marriage as they are preparing to enter it.
All i'd need you to do is answer a few questions with a yes / no or multiple choice response... To all of you that take the minute or two this takes... Thank you sooooo much.
1) Do you expect to wrok outside the home for pay after you are married? Y/N
2) Are you taking your husbands last name as your own? Y/N
3) which name prefix do you use presently? (Mrs, Miss, Ms.)
4) Which name Prefix will you be using after you are married? Mrs., Miss, Ms,
5) On a scale of 1-20, how equally do you expect to split the household chores and caring labour (ie raising children) with your husband? (0= all your responsibility, 10= total equal split, 20= all his responsibility)
6) In planning your wedding, have you experienced any treatement from vendors, church, or other partys that you feel was a result of your gender?(ie. Your future husband or father has to sign paper work)
7) Which country do you live in presently?
Thats it!!! I'll keep the stats but if anyone wants to know the information after the survey has finished just let me know with your email included in your post and i'll send you the results. If you have any comments or other information or stories that you would like to include that you feel are relevant... PLEASE INCLUDE THEM TOO!!!!
This project will be presented at Lakehead University on March 15th of this year.
Thanks soo much once again
Cheers and i'll see you all on the message boards!
