Answer 1

d

Answer 2

Students should note that the two classes had very different economic outlooks, which affected how they viewed marriage. Southern planters were already at the top of the socio-economic ladder and were mostly concerned with staying there. Thus, this group viewed marriage as a way to protect their interests. It is also worth noting that the planter lifestyle left time to create elaborate customs regarding marriage. Among white-collar northerners, marriage was much more a pursuit of love, though some would have looked at the social implications of a relationship. Moreover, northern white-collar workers needed to establish themselves, so they waited later to marry. Finally, many northern women worked prior to marriage, while young women from the southern planter class seldom did.
