      If it was for religious reasons, I would have specified it as a “man and a woman”

        Then what is your basis for it only being between two people? You’re defining it just like religion does because that’s where you got the idea even if you don’t realize it.

          Because that’s what marriage is and always has been, anything else is contrary to human nature

            Marriage is human nature? Legal documents providing specific legal protections in your specific country is human nature?

              Marriage is more than legal documents

                Not in the situation being described here. The situation being described here is a method for people to legally untether themselves from their parents.

                Yeah, religion. Marriage has literally no basis in humanity except for religion and legal protection.

                Living with someone doesn’t require marriage. Procreation doesn’t require marriage. Cooperation doesn’t require marriage. Being with one person exclusively for life doesn’t require marriage. It’s literally just religion and laws, that’s it.
