Marriage as a union of two or more consenting adults
Honestly, I would just ban it entirely at this point. I'd rather see the abolition of marriage entirely than have the government dictate who can and cannot participate (outside of consent issues, obviously).
I mean, go forth. Be fruitful. Multiply.
Eat, drink, be merry with each other.
Just leave the government out of it.
If itβs two or more then how will assets be split up during divorces? We should also look at the common negative effects on children that that has caused as well
and intellectually capable* adults
Able to what?
Capable*
