Greetings, Victoria!
A fascinating study of the expectations and double standards found between men and women. You've packed a lot into this brief poem, bringing us images of 1950's cliches and religious tropes. You misspelled the word "catechism," perhaps on purpose.
The narrator's pride at remaining unmarried and bucking long-held familial stereotypes is clear.
I would suggest adding a line count and submitting this to the Shadows and Light Free Verse Poetry contest. It stands a good chance of placing and deserves recognition.
