I feel like our society is too biased towards marriage. People seem to seek it out with little thought as to why, and we are steered that way from early on. Those who aren't married are questioned endlessly on when they will "settle down" or "find a good man/woman".
I don't think there should be any legal definition of marriage. I feel like we have setup a legal structure that discriminates against those who are not married. Let people choose live their life with who they choose, or with no one if they choose.
I say this as someone who is happily married.
