Marriage.

Well, I decided I should probably write this blog post since I feel rather strongly on the subject, and as usual, to refer to people to it.

So, yeah. Reasons why I don’t intend on getting Married, not because I won’t love anyone, or think I’m not capable of loving anyone that much, or because I don’t like commitments, I know for a fact that I can, it’s just the general concept;

• You need a contract to keep show you’re, ‘committed’. Yeah… that’s really committed, you have to be legally forced to be, ‘committed’.
• You need a contract to reproduce with your own husband…which is something I find stupid, and if a reason why I don’t like Christianity in general, you’re black mailed into doing to many things, ‘Have kids with the man/women you love without spending 15 grand on a sacrament we like and we’ll make sure AFTER your dead we’ll make you pay in hell’. Seriously… I could go on about there constant black mail…
• According to sources, 300,000 people get married a year, and the average couple does indeed spend 15 grand… that’s 4.5 million pounds spent a year… It’s OBVIOUS Marriage isn’t completely about how much you love someone, it’s obvious it’s completely commercialized. I mean, you REGULARLY here people after watching some movie saying, ‘That’s how I want my wedding day to be like’. It’s a lot more than about supposedly spending your life with someone, it’s about spending the most money and having a better dress than that person you can’t stand. Honestly, when I go to a wedding, I really don’t receive the impression that I’m here to celebrate how much two people love each other, it’s more like a massive party.
• ONLY 60% of Marriages in the UK are successful. Presumably that means 40% of all Marriages end up in divorce(according to the same source).
• Yet again, going back to money, the 40% of couples who do get divorced have to give half of their money to their partner. I don’t get that, it’s CLEARLY a flawed system, which has probably been abused a lot.

So, that’s the end of my list, which I intend to add too later on.
