>>5744791>The purpose of marriage is love, children are the side effect.You have been inverted. The purpose is the children. Why would people be bound together through hard times in a contract "for love?" That makes no fucking sense does it?
What it is for is to keep the man there providing for the vulnerable pregnant woman and children and to keep the woman obeying him so the family situation is one he can manage.
You have to think back to a world without birth control, it's actually not that far back into the past but people have forgotten it.
