Relationships In Aldous Huxley's Brave New World

In the book, Brave New World by Aldous Huxley, there are many things that you see in today’s society and there are many things you don’t. The book is a representation on how our future is going to play out. Personal relationships, education, and creative expression might not be the exact same, but we are heading down the same path if we are not careful. Not too long from now we will soon become the society that Huxley was presenting in the novel.
Personal relationships are not how they used to be. Today, men and women aren’t concerned with having one partner for a lifetime. It is very unlikely for people to stick with one person and eventually marry that person. In the book, “everyone belongs to everyone” (Huxley) and they don’t see the point in committing to only one person. If people stop committing to one another then it would be like everyone is sharing each other. Most men and women are too busy to have a relationship, they revolve around their career. There are more single men and women today then there has been in the past (Staff, 2015).
Today we are a technology based society and we are straying away from using paper/pencil. Almost everyone you asked has a smartphone and we are consumed with the idea that we have to stay connected to the world. Everything we need to know is a click away. We use standardized testing to predict and decide how well we are comprehending the information that is being taught in schools (Education, n.d.). In the Brave New World everything revolves around technology and they rely on “sleep teaching” for educating the students. There isn’t any one on one interactions with teachers/professors. The children are taught at a young age what they will need to know for the rest of their lives by going through tremendous producers that program their thinking
