No, did not mean to suggest that.

I was just pointing out that in a certain religious context marriage can be- and has often been- used to promote the submission of one party to another in a way that is ultimately harmful in many cases.

One of the beauties of the luxurious life we lead today is that a person does not have to get married or stay married because it is the only way to have a secure future.

But that also lends itself to an abuse of the institution.

Still I think that is okay, because two good people who get married will make the best of it- regardless of the final outcome.
