Breathing is a natural function of the body. Forced lifelong monogamy or polygamy isn't. And at the point when the state issues a warrant regarding your feelings, it stops being about your feelings anymore and becomes something the state wants you to do. For me this is scary, artificial and wrong - in so many ways
Hang on there Ciel. Where I am marriage is just the right of inheritance (conveniently smoothing the way) legally recognising the value of "the other" in a relationship and this is the crux of the "Gay marriage" issue"
I am 55 years old and have never married til now, and only because my partner thinks that it would be much easier for me to inherit our home and access his savings (should anything happen to him). Quite frankly in a court of law "marriage" carries great weight.
IF you do not wish to marry DON'T! No one should force you to .
