It's not marriage that means so much, it's my wife that means so much to me. Marriage is simply the social construct that ostensibly manifests this. 9/29/2006 2:40:47 PM |

This has all the makings of a pseudo-intellectual soapbox.

Marriage shows that both of you are committed to each other for life. It also means that sex is over in some cases. 9/29/2006 3:17:17 PM |

Two Words: Life Partner
This applies to both homo/heterosexual couples. Marriage is an institution/scam. Its all about the commitment. My $.02 9/29/2006 3:20:19 PM |

And yet, married people survive. And live.
Just as well and easily as other people.
Why?
Not because anyone's any better than anyone else. But because we've got good hardware. Language is the software.

its a rite of passage by which i brand my commitment to the woman i love. it also has traditional value... a social contract like Bobby said. 9/29/2006 10:40:39 PM |
