Sociological Study of Young Women Expectations from Their Husbands: Presenting a Grounded Theory

The present study is a qualitative one conducted with the aim of perceiving young women expectations from their husbands. Grounded theory and in-depth interview technique were employed for the purpose of studying women expectations. Data analysis reveals that young women expectations are formed by equality-seeking inclinations، modern style marriages، occupation، and the like. Moreover، young women take advantage of various strategies like clearing up expectations، challenging gender discriminations، restricted maternity، and emphasis on “I” subject. These will eventually lead to active closeness، reproduction of mutual relations، and privacy protection. The findings reveal that young women، through their expectations، seek to transcend lower social status and reach higher social status. For that reason، they think of higher life levels and attempt for surpassing their social status by relying on power production sources
