  • Imho marriage is two things:

    • a formal way for society to acknowledge a relationship.
    • any symbolic that the married people and their close ones put in it.

    I agree that marriage has some inherent flaws being based on the bourgeois concept of the nuclear family.

    I would be elated to have a similar recognition for non monogamous and/or aromantic relationships. alas one can only dream :c

    There also are some laws that cover de facto relationships but they’re still very lackluster and still based on the nuclear family.

    I used to be very against marriage but I’ve seen some great ones recently that were just that: awesome celebrations of important relationships.

    Marriage is incredibly flawed. I would still like to think that it’s redeemable.
