Surely you realize that people are talking about legal benefits to marriage in addition to making a long term commitment to love each other and be faithful to each other because they are in love. People who love each other in that way want to be able to share their lives, their money, their benefits, etc. Heterosexuals have those perks, homosexuals do not. Most people do not get married for the sole reason of having children. Why would you see senior citizens who are beyond child bearing years getting married if that were true? There are numerous financial and legal benefits to being married. However, that doesn't mean that people get married for only that reason. Sometimes those benefits aren't worth putting up with the person, which is why some people choose to divorce. From sharing Social Security income to visiting your partner in ICU, there are numerous benefits to marriage, to someone you love.
