The author has presented Stephanie Coontz’s “Too Close For Comfort”. It addresses current sociological studies which find that there is a steep decline in American’s close relationships outside the sphere of marriage and the family. Coontz traces the changes which occurred in the role of marriage, as the source of emotional support to men and women, over a period: from Biblical times, through the medieval and Victorian ages, to the present decade. She holds that the emphasis on romantic love and marriage is an ideology which held reign only in the first half of the twentieth century. Coontz argues that while the expectation of finding “fulfillment and friendship in marriage” is justified, it is equally important to strengthen relationships outside the world of matrimony. “The Declaration of Sentiments,” drafted by Elizabeth Cady Stanton, is a milestone in the women’s suffragette movement in the United States. In 1848, the year in which the convention was held at Seneca Falls, New York, and at which the declaration was issued, the status of American women was drastically inferior to that of men. Stanton and her co-reformers list the grievances of American women, and formally announce their resolution to “use every instrumentality within our power to effect our object”. On the surface, Stephanie Coontz’s article and the Convention’s Declaration address entirely different issues: the former analyzes the cause and effects of making marriage the main source of emotional support, while the latter addresses women’s status.
