I started thinking about this whilst i was looking at alot of the romance themed threads on cong, in particular kristy's one on Proposition 8, and it got me wondering.
In this day and age, with "55 hour marriage's", what pupose does marriage actually serve? its been devalued so much through the ridiculous divorce rates, that declaring everlasting love for someone and making a massive commitment is basically worthless. I am not at all against marriage, but i think that people these days do not take it seriously at all. In fact, with all things considered, it would be cheaper and easier for most people not marry at all.
Also, i appreciate that sometimes things and indeed people change over years and a divorce is sometimes nessecary, and this is understandable. Im just bringing what i think is an issue to the people of smogon for their opinions.
Discuss :]
Please?
