interesting post.. I guess everyone's opinion on marriage depends upon the way they look at it. It can be seen as a sacred bond, or even just a mere contract. Like you mentioned, I think the original essence of what marriages are meant to be has been lost over the years. It just legalizes the relationship between two people and that's about it. Obviously, it also depends on how the people in the marriage look at it. Some people will consider it with all rituals and respect what it has been built upon, while for others it's just a show they put on to make them look like man and wife. My personal opinion is that marriage is more than what an institution is. It's what ties two souls together as they walk through all their hurdles and triumph over it together. It's what builds faith, trust, and love. But sometimes I've realized that the only difference between marriage and live-in relationships is that marriages are licensed and have more guarantee, and are also culturally acceptable, while it's not all the same for live-in relationships.

Why are you associating all the negatives with marriage? There are so much of good sides of marriage, and couples, who plans on getting married by their own choice, will agree with that. Also, when you talk of marriage - are you talking about love marriage or arranged marriage? If you're talking of love marriage, then seriously, how is a love marriage any different from living together? And arranged marriage works for those who are prepared for it. In an ideal relation, men has to make their shred of sacrifices too, so there is no point in putting them down as a whole.

I see a lot of hatred for men in this topic. I understand people having personal issues, but it's the best if we can discuss the issue at hand objectively.

I love your point here. Instead of supporting one type of marriage, you've stated that both work for those prepared for them.
And I also think marriage is a beautiful institution.

However, maybe someone's parents never got married and never saw any meaning or importance in getting married. Maybe someone had perpetually arguing incompatible parents that made growing unhappy and miserable and they see marriages as an institutions that forces poor relationships to sustain. Maybe someone is very rebellious and considers their parents losers for their old fashioned ways.

Maybe marriage is just not for everyone. Its probably something for people who believe in marriage and value that institution.

So what do you think of the arguments that have been made against marriage or for cohabitation?
