Thanks for your input, Mr. Marx.
I agree that marriage as an institution has lost its relevance. But I don't mean families shouldn't exist. I mean marriage was invented by religions as a license for people to have sex and kids and in order to keep them together. But now that a) premarital sex is socially acceptable and b) divorce is popular and has no stigma attached, marriage doesn't succeed at its original purpose. Couples who will stay together in today's society will stay together whether they're married or not. Marriage is obsolete and unnecessary.
And I'm not going to go into the family issue.
