'What did you say?' What kind of novelty is this?" I asked my friend across from me, confused.
"It is a person who marries two people at the same time and lives a life of 'two-headed marriage'. "Recently, this phenomenon has quietly appeared in society, and it is gradually increasing. "
I frowned, trying to digest the unfamiliar concept. What a ridiculous practice! Isn't marriage a union of two people? How can you marry two people at the same time? Isn't this deceiving both parties? The image of a person hugging each other left and right comes to my mind, and I can't help but feel a pang of disgust.
I nodded occasionally with a puzzled look on my face, as if listening carefully to my friend's point of view. Every now and then, I take a sip of coffee as if digesting this fresh concept. My brow tightened, and my eyes wandered a little, revealing the contradictions and confusion in my heart.
"What do you think about this?" I finally asked, hoping to get some inspiration from my friends.
"I think it's immoral and it undermines the sanctity of marriage. The friend said categorically, "Marriage should be one-on-one, not half-hearted." "
"But what if everyone was free-willing?" I retorted, "If they respect each other, is this lifestyle also acceptable?"
The friend shook his head, insisting on his opinion. It seems that none of us have a clear attitude towards this new social phenomenon. I could only keep thinking and find the answer in my heart.
Back home, I brought the topic up to my parents to hear what they had to say.
"Marriage between two heads, what a mess!" The father frowned, and his face was full of disapproval, "This is simply a desecration of marriage! Marriage is sacred, how can you marry two people at the same time?"
"yes, that's unethical. The mother also chimed in, "Marriage is a one-to-one union, how can you hug each other left and right? Isn't this deceiving the other party?"
Hearing such a strong opposition from my parents, I couldn't help but fall into deep thought. Their views represent traditional values that have taken root in me. Ever since I was a child, my parents have always taught me that marriage is sacrosanct, and once married, we must stay together for life, and we must not be half-hearted.
I began to look back on my upbringing, and those educational ideas about marriage came to mind. I remember when I was a child, my parents would take our whole family to worship our ancestors and pray for their blessings. In those ceremonies, the sanctity of marriage has always been emphasized. I also remember that whenever a relative or friend divorced, my parents would sigh and think it was a blasphemy against their marriage.
Perhaps it is because of these influences that my understanding of marriage is so conservative and traditional. The practice of "two-headed marriage" seems to me to be absurd and a kind of stain on marriage.
I sat on the couch with my hands on my knees, my brow furrowed. I nodded my head and shook my head, as if I was arguing fiercely in my heart. There was confusion and contradiction in my eyes, and occasionally I let out a long sigh.
My parents looked at me with an expectant look on their faces, hoping that I would agree with them. But the contradiction in my heart remains. On the one hand, I am deeply bound by traditional ideas, and on the other hand, I am wondering whether this modern society really needs to change.
"But, Mom and Dad, society is constantly evolving, and people's minds are constantly opening up. I finally spoke, "Traditional monogamy may no longer be enough for everyone." If all people are willing and respectful, is this kind of 'two-headed marriage' lifestyle acceptable?"
My father frowned, as if he was incredulous at my opinion. The mother shook her head, her face full of disapproval. It seems that it will not be easy to get them to change their traditional views on marriage.
'What?' Marriage between two heads'?" Xiao Li was puzzled at first, and then laughed, "This is too outrageous, isn't it?
"That's right, it's a joke. Xiao Zhang echoed, "Marriage is a one-to-one union, how can there be a reason to marry two people at the same time?"
"But if everyone is voluntary, there's nothing wrong with this way of life, right?" Xiao Wang held a different view, "As long as everyone respects each other and no one hurts anyone, why can't it?"
The office was suddenly engulfed with heated discussions, and everyone was giving their opinions. Some people think that "two-headed marriage" is a desecration of marriage, while others say that they can try to accept this new way of life.
After hearing the views of my colleagues, I was even more confused. Everyone has a different understanding of marriage and has been affected differently. Some people adhere to the traditional concept that marriage should be a one-to-one union; Others are open to the idea that this new way of life is acceptable as long as there is mutual respect.
I think back to yesterday's conversation with my friend and his idea that "if all people are free and respectful". If so, is this "two-headed marriage" lifestyle acceptable? After all, everyone has the right to pursue their own happiness, as long as it does not harm others.
Perhaps, I should open my mind and look at this with a more inclusive and open mind. We can't rest on our laurels, otherwise we will fall behind in the development of the times.
I sat at my desk with my chin in my hands on my face, my eyes a little distracted. I nodded or shook my head from time to time, as if I was thinking about something. Occasionally, I would pick up a pen and scribble in my notebook, as if to organize my thoughts.
The arguments of my colleagues echoed in my ears, but my attention was no longer there. My mind replayed their views over and over again, carefully pondering the plausibility of each argument.
Does traditional monogamy really apply to everyone, and is this "two-headed marriage" lifestyle acceptable if all people are willing and respectful of each other? I argued fiercely in my heart, leaning toward one side and the other.
At this moment, Xiao Li patted me on the shoulder, awakening me from my contemplation. "Hey, what do you think about this?" He asked, "Are you for or against 'two-headed marriage'?"
I hesitated for a moment, and realized that I couldn't answer for a while. The issue seemed to be a lot more complicated than I thought, and I needed more time to think about and weigh up.
A few days later, I happened to meet a couple who were "married to two heads" and they warmly invited me to dinner.
"Hello, I'm Mr. Li, and this is my wife, Ms. Zhang. The man introduced himself, "We are living a life of 'two-headed marriage'. "
I couldn't help but feel a shock that I didn't expect to encounter this in real life. I looked at them quizzically, not knowing where to start.
"You must be curious about our way of life, right?" Ms. Zhang seemed to see my doubts and took the initiative to explain, "In fact, the 'two-headed marriage' is not as terrible as you think. All three of us are voluntary, respectful and trusting of each other. "
"That's right, we're like a big family, we don't hide from each other. Mr. Li also chimed in, "As long as everyone can be honest with each other, this way of life is not unavoidable." "
After hearing about the couple's personal experience, my heart was shaken like never before. It turns out that the "two-headed marriage" is not as terrible and unbearable as I imagined. This way of life seems feasible as long as all people are voluntary, and there is mutual respect and trust.
I began to reflect on my definition of marriage. Does marriage have to follow traditional monogamy? If all people can be honest with each other and trust each other, can they also try new ways of life? After all, everyone has the right to pursue their own happiness, as long as they do not harm others.
I think of the discussions I had with my parents, friends, and colleagues, and of their doubts and objections to the "two-headed marriage". But now, after seeing the couple's personal experiences, I seem to have found some answers.
Perhaps, our understanding of marriage is too conservative and traditional. In this modern society that is constantly evolving, people's minds are also becoming more and more open-minded. Traditional monogamy may no longer meet the needs of everyone, and we need to look at the new way of life with a more inclusive and open mind.
"How do you three get along, and will there be conflicts and quarrels?" I asked curiously.
"Of course there will be contradictions, and this is unavoidable. "But as long as we can be honest with each other, considerate and tolerant of each other, we will definitely be able to resolve differences." "
I nodded, admiring their courage and open-mindedness. It does take a lot of courage and determination to break out of the traditional box and try a new way of life.
"Are you happy now?" I asked again.
"Of course happiness. Mr. Li said with a smile, "Although this road is not easy, as long as we trust and respect each other, we will be able to live happily." "
