İran’da ekonomik ve sosyal baskılar birçok insanın evlenme yaşını yukarı çekti. Nüfusun yüzde 75’inin 35 yaşın altında olması ülkeyi endişelendiriyor. Aileler ve ülke liderleri endişelendikçe gençler ailelerinden ayrı ve bekar yaşamaya devam ediyor.

Çalışmalar gösteriyor ki İran halkının yüzde 7’si -ağırlıklı olarak Tahran’da olmak üzere- yalnız yaşıyor. Dini liderler toplumu evlilik konusunda cesaretlendiren konuşmalar yapıyor.

Durum yalnız yaşayan İranlılar için çoğunlukla bir güç belirtisi anlamı taşımakta. Kendi ayakları üzerinde durabilen, geleneksel düşüncedeki ve yapıdaki ailesinden uzakta yaşadığını topluma gösterebilen her genç kendini daha iyi hissediyor. Artan emlak fiyatları ve ekonomik belirsizlik de genç insanların evlilik masraflarından ve aile kurma düşüncesinden uzaklaşmasına sebep oluyor.

Mercedes, 31, is a employee at a private firm, also trains dogs as second job and her family lives in Tehran. 75 percent of population of Iran are under 35 years old who prevent marriage because of economic and social difficulties.This leads to rising of the age of marriage and other social phenomenas like bachelor living and departure of youngs from their family.Studies show that 7.1 percent of Iranians living alone, most of them in Tehran, capital of Iran. Bachelor living of girls shows their point of view: modernism and western life style, drifting away from traditional life.They also want to prove that they can live independent without any support from their families, just like boys do. The reasons why young boys and girls prefer a bachelor life could be the hard time they spend with their traditional familis and not having any common point of view with them, job and education. I started working on the life of this group of society and pictured their portrait in their homes.
