Thesis statement: In Oscar Wilde's play, The Importance of Being Earnest, Wilde uses black humor and a satirical manner to show the shallow, and hypocritical views on marriage in the Victorian Era.
My group essay is topic one. For my individual paragraph, I'm writing on the overall views on marriage during the Victorian Era, and in the play The Importance of Being Earnest. My first CD is about marriage not being about pleasure, or being with someone who you truly like or love. My CM will be supporting this by explaining how people feel about the people they are married to, and why people marry the people they marry. The second CD is about Lady Bracknell not approving of Jack and Gwendolen being engage. My CM will support this by explaining how people didn't always get to choose who they married, and that parents usually wanted their daughters to marry someone of high status for money reasons. My last CD is about how people rushed into marriage. My CM will support this by explaining how people rushed into marriage for my reasons, for status reasons, and for all the other reasons.
If there is anything I should change, tell me!

I think that your points and commentary were good, and that you will have good descriptions on everything about marriage. Some of my points might be the same, we'll figure that out on Tuesday though.
