Experience. It's getting better, but really only in the more affluent areas
of Mexico, etc.. In many of the poorer town of Mexico women are still
expected to get married by 14-15 and are there to cook and clean and have
children. 
I remember once I went to Chiapas with my sister and a group of women told
my sister that she was an old maid at 22, and that she should wear a dress
instead of shorts, because she would never get a husband in shorts!
