essay will talk about ... or I am going to tell you ...

than get married.

people are choosing to live together before marriage, despite the cultural pressures.

3 Marriage in Russia.

Explanation:

2 Even though marriage is a strong and respected institution in Russia, more and more  people are choosing to live together before marriage, despite the cultural pressures.

     [] Isn't a thesis as it is directly announcing the topic.

3 Marriage in Russia.
