Content: It is unfair for a girl to marry a person so much older and have to spend their lifetime with them. Especially because since the man is so much older probably meaning that the girls would have to be a widow pretty soon at the age when she is supposed to have all the fun in her life! Not fair at All! How it has affected MODERN day marriages: The way people in Sparta married each other has somewhat affected modern day marriage. Although we typical don't wrestle for each others hand in marriage, there is the engagement process. The process of asking one to be your fiancé means you are accepting them. If the male one wrestling, than the female would accept his hand in marriage. Also, It seems as if it is always the man that engages the woman, which has come from ancient Greece. For example, in todays world the man asks the woman to marry him (most of the time), back in Sparta if the man won the wrestling match than the couple would marry!
