The Significance Of Wedding Nights
The wedding night allows the groom the opportunity to impress upon his bride the
understanding that social-sexual restrictive values are no longer effective with regards to their sex life in marriage. So what's the significance of wedding night to newly wedded couples? We can obtain a deeper understanding of this question by analyzing the need for such a function.
First and foremost it helps to mention that the institution of marriage permits a man and a woman to engage in recreational and procreative sexual adventure as long their marriage remains intact; this realization raises the question regarding the necessity and validity of such ceremonious events. To answer this question; lets start by looking at the societal values and conditioning with regard to sexual interactions.
Wedding night, also called the first night produces a strong urge or "kick" in a person, the anticipation arises from the fact that this is the first time that a couple have their sexual desires fulfilled in an environment that is free from restrictions. This is also the first time that the newlyweds; a man and a woman, appreciate the role that they were destined to play in the in society as two different gender.
Therefore, the wedding night as an event is celebrated as because it allows the just married an opportunity to enjoy sex in privacy. Privacy here is in the context of the cultural group that the newly married belongs to. The wedding night is a special night that is considered an epilogue of the wedding ceremony and symbolizes the fulfillment of the couple's marriage.
As humans we're largely products of social conditioning and most of our behaviors are influenced by the values imposed on us our society, our sexual interactions are especially more closely dictated by societal values. These values are aimed at regulating behavior and conduct of individuals in a society and sexual values are particularly emphasized. This sort of conditioning is the reason why these socio-sexual values bear such an authoritative role and often influence values of individuals within a society with regards to sex. In such circumstance as aforementioned, any changes or modifications to a person sexual values can only be effected through imparting of behavior regulating values at a certain age.
Girls brought up in a an environment that upholds a strict moral code and where sexuality is a topic to be confined to the privacy of peoples bedrooms, often find it difficult relating sexually to members of the opposite sex, this scenario can play itself into adulthood and into marriage, where it can pose a challenge to the person and their partner. Women socially conditioned to engage in, and enjoy sex under the security of marriage.
Such values are especially strong on women in many cultures and they prevent them from exploring their sexuality fully before marriage. Women in such societies are expected to "respect" themselves by restraining their sexual desires and remain chaste until they get married. Chastity thus can only be broken through sanctioned event such as the wedding night and with the right person, that is the groom. This is the reason why a wedding can only be deemed complete after the "sexual union" has been done by the newly married.
