Should marriage be abolished?

Postby Disgraces » Tue Jun 16, 2020 10:48 pm

In my opinion it shouldn't, and I don't even know why some people want to abolish it.

We're going to want a bit more than one sentence, don't you know. Pros and cons, some sources, perhaps, that sort of stuff.

No.

But there should be a poll about this question.

No. By outlawing it, you risk making marriage "cool."

Nah.

I really get the motivation of some of my friends that are devoutly anti-marriage, but I think it's fine if people want to do it. Perhaps we shouldn't have as much social stigma about it as we do, though.

Yes. It is an outdated concept that serves no purpose, especially in jurisdictions where common law marriage applies.

A lot of people derive a lot of joy from getting married. Seems like a fine purpose to me. Any excuse for a party, no?

People derive joy from cocaine as well, doesn't justify blowing ten grand on it.

I'm under the belief that people only get married to take advantage of the tax benefits that come with it. So yes, abolish it. I say that mostly because I'll never find love so no one else should be allowed to love either.

Marriage doesn't give you seizures, heart disease, and lung damage.
