>>178734492Or you could misinterpret everything I said, and then say I'm backtracking when I try to explain myself, effectively winning the argument in your mind, and your mind alone.
However, I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you're not that retarded.
The word "marriage" as it's used now, is a blanket term for a union of two people legally in a romantic fashion, okay?
But back in the good ol days when religion fucked you 200 ways to Sunday, marriage was a Christian thing that required a Church, priest, witnesses, etc.
This is the institution of marriage and of course since then shit has been changed and you can get "married" without all that shit now.
The point remains, brah.
Always exceptions to the rule.
