Hw Question #1 Pride and Prejudice

--It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a large fortune, must be in want of a wife.
(this is the first sentence of the novel)

---------------------------------
What does this sentence mean? What is the view of marriage that it suggests? Is it a concept that is outdated or still true today? Would you agree or disagree? Do you think this opinion is dependent on your sex? Give examples in your answers if possible.
-------------------------
(Focus on the words in bold. Make sure you answer all parts of the question and explain your answers thoroughly if you want full credit)
