Marriage: Difference between revisions

'''Marriage''' in the modern Western context is the process by which men bribe women (with money, never losing his job, free transportation, a ring, a lavish wedding, and often a house) to let them have sexual intimacy and children in a long term monogamous relationship.  Long term monogamous relationships are more beneficial (not necessarily more enjoyable) to men than women as men lose interest in a partner much slower than women and cannot find sex outside of long term relationships as easy as women.  This does not mean that women don't enjoy long term monogamous relationships or that men '''should''' bribe women for long term monogamous relationships.  Love exited the picture of marriage with the rise of [[misandry]] and rampant female [[hypergamy]].
