On the other hand, I do see that you folks are arguing against a totally different set of people than I am -- those who don't take marriage seriously.
I'm just saying that this is a sad side-result of a change in our society for the better. You people have in your heads that marriage is noble because it's forever, and it's somehow worth less if it's not. That concept of forever was forged on a road of pain by men who beat women into submission when they acted up. Sure it's feasible to have lifelong marriages if one of the partners is submissive to the other. An equal-rights marriage is much harder to maintain. As a resut of this, the concept of marriage is changing, because people know that they don't have to take shit. Holding us up to the standard of those who did have to take shit just isn't fair.
