  • There aren’t many benefits, I’m committed to my partner and we’ve been together for 7 years now. She’s my life partner. Getting married doesn’t offer much that you can’t already do with other legal documents, such as getting the same rights to them in medical situations as you do with marriage. Tax benefits maybe

    Neither of us want to get married because it does nothing for us, were already each others partners, even if we did, after marriage I would still refer to her as my life partner instead of wife.

    Plus her very religious family desperately want us to marry and we both want to keep denying them that pleasure as early on in our relationship they were adamant we would split up if we didn’t get married before living together.













  • You know, I totally agree people are free to believe whatever they want and obviously I know and am friends with/family with people who are religious and I don’t necessarily think poorly of them on an individual basis.

    However, my belief on a personal level is religion is fucking stupid and an artifact of humans from a bygone age when we were significantly dumber, unintelligent, and didn’t know anything about the world and universe. I hate religion and wish I could live long enough to see it die. It makes me so happy knowing that overall religious individuals, at least in the US, are declining year over year.

    I’m aggressive about it here because this is the internet and those are my true feelings. But ya irl it would be pretty scummy to be so hostile and rude to someone based purely on their religious beliefs
