In my opinion, at present, marriage has no practical need.
Previously, he was needed. It was very difficult for one person to keep house or maintain and raise children.
Now we have everything for self-fulfilling self-realization. We can do what we want while having children.
So why do we need this lack of freedom? for love? But love does not live long, then everything turns into a habit.
Maybe it's time for modern society to abandon marriage?
It's funny that you associate marriage with lack of freedom when it is not... well, unless you live in a country where the husband or the wife loses their freedom when in marriage. And maybe you do not have love that is long-lasting but a lot of people do experience it. Also, marriage has a lot of practical applications especially in benefits and in law.
