we all know that love should be the major factor in getting married but we cannot deny the biological or chronological age of a person has a lot to do with the kind of maturity they have in their being. also, we have to consider the age of the would-be mother. we all know downe syndrome happens to women who get pregnant later in life. so, for you, at what age is it good to get married?

I don't think it matters at all what age you get married. I agree that there are certain ages when it it's more appropriate to reproduce, but that doesn't always need or follow a marriage. I'm 24, and I'm engaged, but that's probably one of the most normal things I've done in my life, even if it is to another woman.

thank you for your response. in asia, much as it is more common now to have a child outside of wedlock, it is still seen as "out of place". anyway, in due time maybe people's perceptions here would change.

for me 25 upto 30 is the best age for marriage. Not too young nor too old.Ü

I think age 23 to 28 is ideal for a lady to get married. I think that age 25 to 35 is best for a man to get married. The perfect age for a lady to have a baby is age 25 to 30. It is possible to have a baby from age 31 to 35. After that complications can happen sometimes. One of my friends has a lovely son with down syndrome. She was 34 years old when she had him and since she has had another son who is normal. She goes to a club and one lady was just 22 years old when her down syndrome baby was born. Love and compatibility are important and those can happen at any age from 16 onwards.

i think you should be at least 24 to get married. when you reach mid twenties you have probably finished your college education and can fine a good job. you will be ready to settle down with the love of your life by that time. if both of you have a degree then you can both get a job and save for a house and children. hopefully within a year you will have enough money to buy a house and after two years of marriage you can start a family. the women would only be 26 which is not to old and mature enough have a new baby to take care of.

I think it does not depend on age, it depends on the maturity of both partners.

I would say mid twenties almost early thirties. But then again I would say if one is gonna have a kid do it between the age of 25-30 or else you might lose the "will" to do it later. Plus when your kid is about 10 or so at least you wont be pretty old and you can still do things together.
