[quote=PINETREE ,27843]No, peacock is a male - female is peahen !I don't think one can classify the concept of marriage as conservative or not. What is the "modern" concept of marriage ? Frankly, most of us in our own sociey do not quite understand the other's that well. Most of us form an impression of each other from what we hear, read & see via media, movies,etc, etc which are all a sort of propaganda that may not reflect the true picture. And the problem is the pic is too big for us to draw a generalisation (which I tend to be guilty of as well). But I do have the impression that the Western & Eastern views towards marriage are quite different. As said before, love & marraige are 2 different matters. If one equates marraige to love, the former will break down as a matter of course - ie when love ends. Yet, quite often the union of 2 persons continue till death do them apart. I think this may not be due just to love alone. Love is powerful. But like all things powerful, it lasts only for a while. The success of a marriage is not dependent on this element alone.[/quote]
