| description | Definite celibacy refers to a situation in which girls fail to marry until 45 years old and are prevented from starting a family. This phenomenon has many social and individual consequences, including; Reduction in the number of births, reduction in population growth rate, lack of generational replacement, loneliness, etc., which need serious consideration and attention. Therefore, the present study uses qualitative content analysis to investigate the consequences of definite celibacy based on the lived experience of these girls. Participants were 23 definite single girls who were selected using purposive sampling. Data were analyzed using MAXQDA2020 software. In order to validate the data, review of studies and techniques of obtaining parallel information and trinity, data analysis was presented and to obtain reliability, Kappa agreement coefficient was used, which was confirmed with a reliability value of 0.78. The research results showed; Definite abstraction leads to unintended consequences that cause many problems for the society as a whole and for the individuals of the target society in particular. The main themes of definite celibacy consequences were abandonment of the thought of marriage, vulnerability to loneliness, eloquence of past regrets, the stigma of celibacy and social helplessness. Each of these consequences can be considered as a social harm; Therefore, the need for appropriate social policy to reduce definite celibacy is felt more than ever. |
