“We decriminalized infidelity. We created no-fault divorce. We wanted all of the benefits, without all those messy obligations.”
Bingo, and not even a small slice of “conservatives” want to address those problems. Every time I make a similar comment around here, I maybe get one reply in support and the rest is *crickets*.
Since when did conservatives sanction any of that? Liberals instituted them.
Yup.
And that’s what I hear from my fellow conservatives on this thread.
Fear of actually being obligated to stand on your side of the contract with consequences if you don’t.
She’s right.
We want the benefits without considering a price.
Marriage is dead and we killed it. If individuals want to honor the original intent... then that’s nice.
But that’s all it is. Nice.
