Journalist and author Poorna Bell has made some compelling arguments about preparing girls and young women for the reality of marriage, rather than getting them 'hyped and excited' for the 'goal' of a lifelong commitment.
Appearing on an episode of Fearne Cotton's Happy Place podcast, Poorna shared her thoughts on marriage: "One of things that we do such a disservice, especially to women, is we get them so hyped up and excited for the goal of getting married and the wedding day, but we don't really have a chat, ever, about the practicalities of it. What are the realities of it?" she says.
