I don't say I disagree. As for marriage, government should not deal with it at all either. Anyone can call their relationship anything they wish. Marriage or anything.
But here is why many won't like it.
Imagine if Donald Trump get 10 photo models. There will be less hot babes for the rest of many males.
That is why government tend to "regulate" sex. It's to appease wish of many people for various reasons.
Porn is also problematic for many women. Many hot babes baring it all for men take attention away from average looking girls.
And that is not interests the market "solve". In a sense free market will not help people from superior competitors. Only government can do that. And hence government often regulate.
Government HAS to deal with marriage. Marriage is a construct of government and encompasses more than a thousand rights and obligations that can only be ministered by government
Why does that trouble you?
Actually you got a point here. Marriage is government construct. However, why should government have such construct as marriage.
There used to be a legitimate reason for that.
In ancient time we don't know who the father of a child is if NOT because of marriage.
We didn't have DNA tests before.
So our ancestors use social engineering to assign father to son. We created institution called marriage. Your wife's son is your son that will get your inheritance. Chance is, it's indeed your son because your wife will be killed if she fuck other guys.
However, that's in ancient time.
Now you can easily know who daddy is by DNA test. Current marriage law is a joke that force man to support kids that's not his. The only reason why government still pull that shit up so it can give favorable treatment to certain immigrants that don't necessarily add value to you.
Keep government out of sex and marriage. Let the market decide what marriage is. You want any kind of sexual relationship, you can make your own contract free from government guidance.
Which, in its current form is correct in a marriage contract.
