    I was expecting so much more honestly. "The institution of marriage is at least 4,350 years old, with the first recorded marriage taking place in Mesopotamia in 2350 B.C. However, some speculate that the concept may be even older."

    Marriage was not about contracts, money ,property, child support, spousal support , or lifestyle upkeep., it was about two people coming together under God in order to create a family, raise children, take care of their lands etc. divorce wasn’t accepted norm, today you have more people marrying and divorcing than ever many people marrying and divorcing multiple times and still there is no joy. Also, it’s become a business transaction, people that have money want to make sure they’re not going to part with half of their assets and those that have less or no money are wanting to gain more money and so it becomes a calculating game of who can manipulate the other the best.

    marriage started about 10,000 year's ago when agriculture started! before then we had an alfa male for millions of years same as all other mammals. The reason that nature created alfa male is due to biological reasons to ensure mammals' offsprings are healthier to prevent extinction.

    • @watching7721
      @watching7721 5 месяцев назад

      Marriage likely existed in some form long before then, but the first evidence we have of it's existence was when it was formalized with agriculture likely because of a greater need to organize family units. The idea prehistoric humans operated on alpha male hierarchies, from evidence we have, it likely not true for most groups. While it likely did happen at points, evidence generally points to early humans having a variety of social structures and reproductive strategies that go beyond just a dominant male

      Marriage is an old concept, about as old as civilization around 12,000 years ago. Most marriages were done for economic and/or political alignment. But the idea of love and sex being the significance of marriage signifies is a common theme. The idea of marriage for love dates back to the Indus River Valley, but throughout history it's mostly been a nice benefit until the past two hundred years or so in the West

    There's no such thing as a "soulmate". The divorce rate doubling between '60 + '80, is from none other than the satanic idea called feminism. Today, only 6.5/1,000 people are getting married. That's not 6.5%, it's literally 6.5 out of 1,000. Marriage is nothing more than a government backed scam to steal money from men and give it to women when she files for divorce. Which is 80% of the time, in the 51% of divorces. There is NO benefit for a man to get married.

    I don't think anyone gets married so that another person can "fix" them or make them better. That sounds like such a drag actually. I think my husband and I get along best when we respect each other and stay on our own page instead of telling one another what to do. I highly recommend it!

    Marriage.. never mentioned a word about the spiritual, non physical meaning or purpose for it. Karma! Before we decided to come to this planet we decided who we would have in our lives, and most of the time it's to repay karma from a previous life. I know 90% of people have never learned about the non physical reasons and that's ok. Everyone has a right to their own opinion, it's still a free country the last time I checked. Happiness... if people are getting married because someone else makes them happy...ok. The only person that can make you happy is yourself, it's 100% a personal choice. If you think otherwise, you're giving your power away.

    It all begs the question (which, judging by the comments here, no one seems to be asking): If one could reduce a complex, multivariate subject like the history of traditional marriage into a three-and-a-half minute one-dimensional political (and quite literal) cartoon, replete with corporate-speak and shallow feminist banalities ("gender stereotypes," "constricting social roles"), what kind of a person would buy into this sort of crap unconditionally? Would it not be best disseminated on RUclips to an untold multitude of well-intentioned and perfectly misguided disciples?

      In the video it's a W.Europe centered viewpoint on a marriage. I've found that the theme was described in the Ruthenian Chronicles (Руський літопис) under the year of 1114. So in the Stone age the man-woman relations were defined as blud/блуд "occasional". In the Copper age there came the kingdom of Svaroh "Heaven" and Svaroh established the couple marriage law shlüb/шлюб "one man - one woman". The sanction for braking the law was cutting the head off. In Ukraine the most developed Copper age culture was Trypillia. The earlier and middle periods of Trypillia date back to 7500-5300 years ago. So in these version we can fix the time and place of the couple marriage appearance - ar. 7500-5500 years ago, Trypillia. There also remained Ukrainian people's songs kolädky/колядки, somewhat like carrols. Ukrainian linguist Potebnya stated their motives had been created in the Trypillian old past. One of the basic kolädky motives is a devoted couple of the man and the woman. The Ruthenian Chronicles (Руський літопис) also gives us the continuation of the couple marriage story. The next (after Svaroh) king Dažďboh went on protecting the couple marriage law. Let's assume the Dažďboh era was at the Early Bronze, the Yamna culture. At the time of Svaroh the tax law also was adopted. The sanction for law brakers was burning in the oven. The couple marriage and the tax laws were, I think, basic for establishing the great urban civilization of Trypillia and the rise of the Indo-European civilization. Consequently the corruption of the couple marriage law/tradition ruins complex societies, institutions, countries, peoples, civilizations.
