Vision Blurred by Tradition: in Poems

Let boundaries disappear between countries and families.In the borderless world let us have marriageless societies.In this book, the author has written poems that will lead us from the traditional and superstitious life of 1950s to humanity and oneness of 2050s. As in his books 'Know No Boundaries' by Lateral collateral and 'No Boundaries' by P G Cartwright, the author has tried to do whatever he can do to make the world a better place to live in. His theme is - "Let's belong to our World and Let World belong to us - to work for and to live in. Let boundaries disappear between countries and families." The home of a married couple is supposed to provide its members the assurance of equitable distribution of food, clothing, shelter and sex. Often the home is crowded with other guests, some of whom are not welcome to each member of the couple. The prevalent customs and laws of marriage often allow other guests to encroach into the homes of married couple, even for sex, where the members of a married couple should have exclusive right to each other only. This encroachment into the exclusive rights, often leads to divorces, which are increasing in geometric progression. Often people carry on without divorces, because divorces are very expensive, involving lots of time and money; people prefer to survive by spending their time and money on those pursuits, which help them to earn their living. In most cases, divorces are not liked by parents of the members of a couple. In developing countries like India and Pakistan, divorced wives, may not be remarried again and honour killing is often the rule; but the husbands who tolerate the infidelities find themselves deprived and their time and money get exploited by the guests, invited by the spouse.Those who divorce, often have to part with a share of their earning and assets with their previous partners. Often they cannot get another partner, who are compatible with their mindset and cannot build the mutual trust, essential for a married couple.A 2005 study at Ohio State University (OSU) found that after getting married, people saw a sharp increase in their level of wealth. After 10 years of marriage, the couples reported an average net worth of around $43,000, compared to $11,000 for people who had stayed single. However, people who had married and then divorced were worse off than any other group. After a divorce, the average man was left with $8,500 in assets, while the average divorced woman had only $3,400.From these studies, we need to find out what we need to do to reduce or even eliminate the exploitation of one member of a married couple by the other. If we provide equal facilities and opportunities to a single person and a married person, then every person will earn the living as an individual, then there would no incentive to get married to get a share of the wealth of the spouse.The good news is "Sex will soon be just for fun not babies, ...The vast majority of women who will choose IVF in the future will be fertile women who have frozen their eggs and delayed pregnancy," as predicted by Prof Carl Djerassi, so a person doesn't need to get married to have exclusive right to the spouse for sex. Nobel Laureate Emeritus Prof Djerassi died on January 30, 2015 (aged 91) in San Francisco, California, United States.
