Hey now, I was just jumping in to note that many of the non-emotional benefits for marriage seem to have disappeared and used it as a launching pad for my tax rant. I got accused of judging on the ass-fucking thing and don't want to get sucked into being accused of judging. I married twice for different reasons and would never ever judge people for that or any other reason. Historically, people got married because women didn't work, it was not acceptable for people to "live in sin," married people generally had children, etc. but now that all of that has changed it just seems to me that married people are punished from a tax standpoint and the old basis for that (you legally benefit by being married) is gone so why should married people still be expected to give a little bit more?
