Or she's a widow, required to learn quickly how to live on her own after the death of a spouse. In Why Women Shouldn't Marry, Cynthia and Hillary Smith show how women have been driven into marriage by fears of their own inadequacies for centuries. They've been taught that they can't take care of themselves and need strong men to lean on. But the Smiths' interviews and research reveal what a lie that is. In reality, women alone cope better than men, and with today's woman climbing high up the economic ladder, men aren't necessary for financial security. It is time that women see themselves for the strong, happy people they can be. These examples of self-reliant, single women will act as an inspiration for any woman on the brink of giving up her independence for the elusive security that a marriage license has always promised-but hasn't always provided."www.ebay.com"
