>>It's only been within the past quarter century that marriage as a legal institution has been abolished<<

This point cannot be repeated often enough. Most people still do not understand the significance of "no fault" over the objections of one party.

There is no other contract that is anything like this one, where the parties to the contract are not bound by it if they don't want to be.

Actually, one party, a father, is held to the terms of the contract while a mother taking custody and being awarded support is absolved of her obligation of fidelity. The way no-fault divorce laws have been implemented, and due process denied to fathers in custody decisions makes the contract meaningless. That's "why no one is married."
