But isn't that still directly related to finances? The article kind of touches on the same point, where women are "giving up on men" who not in a good financial position. Not having your finances sorted out with a former partner would also question one's financial position. The pressure stems from one not wanting to look like someone who cannot manage finances.

But circling back, you pointed out that the people get married is for financial reasons.
Which makes sense as the modern marriage contract doesn't cover anything other than finances. Maybe there was an earlier age where there was more to it, but we don't uphold those values anymore.
