transcription: just saw a straight woman CONFIDENTLY say lesbian marriage isnt a real marriage its just “two best friends who get each other off” and like bestie, idk what has gone wrong in your life but thats exactly what marriage is supposed to be, regardless of the genders involved. as opposed to real marriage, where you have two people who dislike each other and dont get each other off.

    As for the bottom comment of the screenshot, marriage has typically seen as economic for much of human history. So yes, real marriage is when two people dislike each other and don’t get each other off.

      It makes me wonder what changed, though. Like the boomers still subscribed to this mindset as shown by the prevalence of “I hate my wife and she hates me” humour. But then it started changing to the point now where even dating seems to be down.

      At one point, being alone was considered failure or at least sad. But I’ve got the mindset of “I’d rather be alone than with a partner that doesn’t meet my standards” and I don’t seem to be alone in that (heh).
