New Delhi [India], Nov 30 (ANI): A Bharat Matrimony matchmaking survey was conducted to find out 'What girls expect from a life partner'. Over 1000 women participants shared their opinions in the survey.
When asked "what's more important to you" while choosing a partner, 44 percent of the women respondents said, "Equality is most important in a relationship."
In response to "Do you believe there's any work strictly defined as a man's or a woman's job", a whopping 90 percent of the respondents felt that everything is equal- be it a career, household chores or baby care.
For "What are the things your partner must do," 74 percent of them replied that it is more important for their partner to take up equal responsibility in bringing up the kids. 86 percent of women felt that taking care of their parents as his own is more important. Apart from this, women also want their partner to stand by their choices.
