The ultimate symbol of a man and a woman's love for each other, representing their commitment to each other no matter what the world might throw at them...and you think it's archaic and primitive? You sir, are a douche.
Its not though, it's a symbol of commitment until one of them gets board/angry/ or what have you. It's not like it used to be, it benifits you for insurance policies and perhaps child rearing but its the ultimate expression of nothing. The ultimate expression of commitment is getting together and staying together it doesn't require a ritual.

My parents have been married for thirty five years, my uncles and aunts have been together from thirty to forty years. I am number eight of eleven children. My eldest sisters have been married for ten and six years respectively, and my oldest brother and fifth oldest sister both got married to their fiance's last year, with my newest nephew born a few weeks ago
Not only that, but my friends at uni all come from happy, stable family's, including several exchange students from all over the world. In Australia AND America, the divorce rate is dropping drastically. People are rediscovering what being married means.
The institution of marriage as a pledge of fidelity and the basis of a stable family is alive and well, your argument is invalid I'm quite happy to tell you.

My argument isn't invalid as a succesful marriage is becoming less and less common as the years go on. It's not really a promise anymore, it's simply a coupling of financial responcibility. Your friends and family being all happily married is at best a rarity and a freak accident.
One doesn't require a religious rite to bind them to another, sure, it can be fun but it isn't a neccesity.

Urhm, they're under EA which allows full 100% marriage for all couple in freaking T for Teen rated The Sims. Ain't gonna be any problemweikle21 wrote...
I dont't think they will do this because, after allowing for gay relationships, marriage is to big of an issue right now. Or, being that it's Bioware, they might do it! But, as someone has already said, it doesn't feel like ME to do it.

Jaded or not, your right. Sure, there are some people out there who legitimately get married because they love each other. But, most likely, the majority of them do it for the incentives and the benefits. And what you said is true, staying together and loving each other doesn't require a ritual!

And yet I've never met anyone who has been divorced. A few of my friend's parents had split I'll admit, but they were the exception, not the rule. My Air Force buddy got married on a Corporal's salary (next to nothing), and his fiance was a junior accountant. Financial responsibility had nothing to do with it, the fact that they loved each other and wanted to spend the rest of their lives together did.
Perhaps you need re-examine your statistics?

She's telling the truth. Divorce is a lot more common these days, and that's because it's also less of a taboo. Pretty soon all marriage will be is an ancient tradition kept alive because of financial and societal regulatory reasons. Unless you are religious I find peoples need to be married senseless. A majority of the time it would only hinder the relationship further by causing a sense of entrapment.

Marriage is the foundation of the family, and the family is necessary for society to exist. I'm sure the Roman Empire could tell you what happens when the family system breaks down.....if it still existed.
The problem with modern society is that people think that marriage is always going to be easy. It's not. That's why the vow is made, for better or worse.

Edit: Nowadays, marriage does seem like its purpose has been watered down, but that's partially because both parties aren't fully commited or extenuating circumstances occur where the marriage can't be saved. However, ther are the few out there that see marriage as a way of commiting to each other and as representation of how much they care for one another and love each other, thus wanting to participate in a ritual that exhibits that.

I doubt that could ever happen. If you look at non-married couples that end up splitting, most of the time it's because of the lack of commitment.

You don't need marriage to have a family. You don't need marriage for stablity in modern day society either.....especially in the Mass Effect universe. Marriage is a societal norm, but it's not a requirement.
