...I take marriage seriously!
So do I, even though I have never married. (Eventually I will settle down and take the plunge, but it's not a high priority right now.)

When I took my obligation as a Master Mason I swore to uphold the institution of marriage, not just to the female relatives of a brother Mason, but to others as well.

I swore the chastity to shield
Of woman true and tender;
Of Mason’s widow, wife and child,
His mother, sister undefiled;
Each pure and innocent whose love
Makes Mason’s homes like that above,
I am their sworn defender.

Some of my favorite parts of the long creed of Sigma Nu refer to this:

Quote:
...To build somewhere in the wide world the sheltering walls of a home, however humble and obscure, where Love shall glorify the wife, Duty enshrine the mother, and Affection ennoble the child. ...Emulating the chivalrous deeds of courtesy, and sealing not our hearts against the touch of tenderness, to win the love and care of some incorruptible woman.
