Why doesn't Merida want to get married?

I am just curious as to why people like Merida.

When I saw Brave, I know I should like her; not her mom but in reality I ended up liking her mom; but not Merida.
Normally, I like rebellious princesses but I find Merida too bratty. I don't understand why the movie acted as if having Merida getting married is the worst thing in the world. Her suitors sound nice. In Beauty and the Beast, it was easy for me to understand why Belle didn't want to marry Gaston: 1. His idea of marriage doesn't match with her idea of marriage. 2. He is a stalker. 3. He tried to blackmail her dad so she would have to marry him.
In Brave, I don't understand why Merida doesn't want to get married. Saying "I want my freedom" doesn't say much. None of her suitors and their fathers сказал(-а) anything about taking away her Любовь for archery или freedom. Therefore I think Merida was overeacting. I also find that the idea of her not choosing any of them to be unrealistic. In real life, she would be disowned by the family for not choosing to marry one of the three boys.

Would Ты want an arrange marriage? Where the guy that Ты married WON Ты and there was no Любовь involved? yeah maybe ya'll would end up loving each other или Ты may end up resenting each other...She was simply not ready for marriage, heck some girls are NEVER ready for marriage and some think there occupation should come first...and in truth once married she would have had дана up her wild ways and become a proper wife just like her mother....She was not ready to do that....In her position she would have been expected to be lady like and be an example and act very queenly and would have to start producing heirs and be a mother (there goes her freedom and archery and time for herself)....How would Ты react if at her age your mother and father informed Ты that Ты had to marry the man that won a competition and had no say so in it? And вверх of that Ты will be having sex and kids and be forever tied to this stranger for the rest of your life? It would be hard for anyone to handle but she did make the right decision in the end and will end up marrying one of them, but out of Любовь and not form them WINNING her in a contest....

I feel pretty much exactly the same but one thing I'd like to add about her feelings of marriage. She may have сказал(-а) she might not ever be ready but I think that was еще of a playful joke us teenagers use. She сказал(-а) she just wan't ready. I think she does plan to get married one день but just not now and definitely not to the suitors. I wouldn't be surprised if she fell in Любовь with a peasant boy. I'm not saying that your saying she's not ever planning on marrying just that I agree with everything Ты сказал(-а) but wanted to add this.

well I did end by saying she WOULD end up marrying (most likely one of the guys)...."definitely not to the suitors"? She actually looked interested in some of the guys but it is obvious she wants to get to know them and they get to know her and ease into it....

Oddly enough it kind of seemed like in a way she kind of liked the one that no one can understand.

yes, I would like an arranged marriage because none of the guys in my hometwon notice me. I also have a learning disability so I do not have luck in the market.

In the original draft of the movie, Merida chose Young MacMuffin to date, but the writers thought that would defeat the whole purpose of Merida's refusal to wed. It IS kinda bratty of her in the film, though, as she hasn't even talked to the suitors at all...only my opinion!

I feel the same way about Merida I thought I would like Храбрая сердцем but I didn't. But I don't want to get married either, not everyone wants that. I guess it's because well... marriage is hell if Ты don't do it with the right person.

At her timeline women have to be perfect. Ты say your most harsh yet honest opinion, they reply with "You aren't Актёрское искусство woman....-ly!" . And she's so young! Imagine being maybe 14 или 13 and already getting married. Ты might need to immediately learn to cook, discipline your children, clean, make clothing, and with all this, still keep control of an entire country I guess. When you're married can Ты just go outside and have fun all день while the prince is inside the home, making sure all the..uh...duties are fulfilled. Why won't WE want to get married at the age of 14 или 16 или even 13?

Honestly, the only thing i'm complaining about here is Merida not realizing that all the suitors feel EXACTLY like Merida. They're also being forced to marry but atleast they're getting over with it. I'm glad Merida doesn't want to get married so soon, but did she have to go there and TRICK her mother into drinking a POTION? Also, I wished she would start looking at the other people involved, and how hard it is for them.

Merida doesn't like having to always do things her mother's way. It's not that she doesn't want to get married ever its just that at this point in her life she's not ready and wants to have the opportunity to choose which is what they decide upon in the end of the movie.

I know alot of people had сказал(-а) this already but she didn't want to get married. This was an arranged marriage. Wouldn't Ты be a bit rebellious if Ты were forced to get married to someone Ты don't really know at a young age?

As a girl who personally doesn't want to get married at this point in my life, I think Merida disliked the idea of marriage. Marriage in her time was much different than ours, Ты see? Once she was married, it would be expected of her to be in the home, cooking and cleaning and making babies. Also, would Ты want to be put in an arranged marriage at the age of 15? (Merida's presumed age) I don't think any one would, regardless of how nice their suitor is. It's the principle of the thing.

I don't thinks princesses were suppose to clean and cook LOL I'm just saying.

What I'm talking about is the idea that was unnatractive to her. The image she had in her mind about what marriage would be like. Maybe she woudn't be cooking and cleaning, but that doesn't detract from the fact she was expected to be perfection.

also having sex with a stranger that won her proably did not set well with her..."Here are these guys and here soon Ты will be sleeping with one of them and having lots of Дети for the rest of your life"...The idea of lets say Wee Dingwall touching her sexually might not have been her fantasy.....What about Jasmine? SHe had еще choice at least with her suitors and was able to actually pick one and not have one picked for her and she still acted like a spoiled brat about it too (istead of trying to change her father though she just tried to run away from home)...Was жасмин attacked as much as Merida has been about her descision? Cause it is basically the same concept except жасмин was дана еще warning and choices in her situation.
