and in addition you can't pass legislation that flies in the face of what society wants, which apparently is to abandon lifelong partnerships to chase the dragon of the dream marriage.
People still want this dream, despite the greater than 50% odds that they will lose this bet. I really am starting to believe that the institution of marriage is obsolete and should actually be discouraged for most people.
I can't speak for women, but as a man - that's like flipping a coin with greater than 50% odds that you will lose.
One side is - the idyllic lifestyle of the nuclear family and On the other side is - the ultimate pain imaginable, financial ruin, heartache, grief and sadness beyond what you've ever experienced, potentially not being able to see your own children.
That's an insane bet to me. Is the reward even worth it? How many intact nuclear families are even happy? half of them?
