            You’re implying that because something is an opinion, you don’t need to defend it on the forum where you went to share said opinion.

            Who is getting scammed when two people get legally joined? Some adults actually need the legal recognition for property purposes, you know.

            In a lot of countries, if your legal spouse dies, you get their shit, whereas if it’s not a legally recognised union, the family (parents/siblings) of the dead person would have more claim to their stuff than the spouse.

              Happened all the time in the US before gay marriage was legalized. One partner would die and their bigoted family which disowned the deceased decades prior would suddenly have the full legal authority to take everything and leave the surviving loved one with nothing

        It seems to me like you just dont understand how most people enjoy life and want them to be miserable like you. You’ve been all over this community with pretty out there and brain dead takes recently.

        As a married person, I don’t agree with your opinion (warranting an upvote) and this had me chuckling. I like your laconic phrasing.
