Answer to Question 1

Marriage is a civil union between two people. Marriage is a legally binding commitment, and brings with it certain advantages. Marriage brings social strength and good standing to couples, as well as economic stability and often spiritual depth. Politically and legally, marriage affirms status and rights to individuals that they otherwise would not have outside of the legal union. Although efforts are being made to change the view, marriage is most widely seen as a union between one man and one woman.
