Hello everyone, how are you doing today? Hope you are having a great time. This will be *Week 181, Edition 01* of our Weekly Featured Content.

So, last Saturday we had our hangout as usual, and it was just so much fun that we did not want it to end. We are currently on the first topic for this week, which is “DEMOCRACY”.
But before we proceed with the details of the topic, let us take a look at the winners of the last topic, which was “MARRIAGEABLE RANGE”.
This topic was geared toward each member of the community sharing their thoughts with us on the ideal age range when it comes to getting married. Having an age range to look out for ensures that people within the same age bracket get married to each other, and that way, there won’t be anyone getting married to people who are either way older than they are, or way younger than they are.
We got to see different ideas on this. For many, age is just a number, and as such, it shouldn’t be a factor in life partners. As long as both partners are of age and are ready for it, then they can go ahead with it. That’s what’s most important in marriage, compatibility. It was an enlightening topic, indeed.

> For this topic, we went through every entry post, and that is every post with the #hl-exclusive & #hl-w180e3; tag. And with the number of wonderful posts out there, it was quite difficult to make a selection. But eventually, we did just that. And so, the posts that will be featured not just for their exceptional content, but also for their level of engagement with other authors, will be listed below. 
[SOCIAL MEDIA’S UNREALISTIC MARRIAGE GOALS ARE RUINING YOUR LIFE](https://peakd.com/hive-153850/@idksamad78699/social-medias-unrealistic-marriage-goals-are-ruining-your-love-life-b2b) by @idksamad78699
*This author told us that social media has played a huge role in ruining the true sanctity of what marriage really is for couples. However, there are certain things that need to be in place for a marriage to hold, and one of the most important is that the partners understand each other. But then, marriage is a personal issue and shouldn’t be subject to the scrutiny of the public.*
[AGE GAP OR LOVE GAP?](https://peakd.com/hive-153850/@princessbusayo/age-gap-or-love-gap) by @princessbusayo
*For this author, she emphasizes that beyond age, there are several factors that should also be considered when going into marriage. From maturity, to the level of understanding that exists between the couple, and most importantly, love. Age is but only a number, and these factors are what will determine if it’s a good marriage or a bad one.*
[LOVE HAS NO AGE](https://peakd.com/hive-153850/@crazyphantombr/enpt-love-has-no-age-59t) by @crazyphantombr *For this author, he told us that when it comes to relationships, love should take the lead. As long as the couple loves each other, age should never be a problem. There should be no restrictions, legal or otherwise, with regard to the age bracket which a person is permitted to marry.*
