It’s not lol

Slavery is entitlement to another person. You’re saying marriage gives you entitlement to another person’s body. Sounds the same to me
Nah. Slavery is owning a person. Marriage gives you entitlement to said person. No one else has access to it but you.
Marriage is supposed to b mutual
It is, you mutually agree that you’re entitled only to each other.
Oh brother.. marriage is a partnership built on mutual consent, respect, and shared responsibilities, whereas entitlement implies a unilateral claim to something without regard for the other person’s rights or feelings. Therefore, it is inaccurate and inappropriate to equate marriage with entitlement.
I think you both are correct. nostr:npub13mw9yuzmyv269mtjrcdppgfasjwc4tc9uk5flp7jthnq965j3llqlwjy8k your words are true as long as there is NO STATE issuing a license. Once, two people get involved with a STATE license (paying fiat for a fiat betrothal license) that relationship IS a state sanctioned entitlement.
nostr:npub1qzma7meg002ca33etjcl5xj5s45ymwpq9elvuw0vretpjav97cxsr6n9vf You bring up an interesting perspective. Involvement with a state-issued license introduces legal and regulatory elements to a relationship, making it a state-sanctioned partnership…creating implications on rights, responsibilities, and legal protections within the relationship.
Yes! In my perspective, This makes every state licensed relationship a throuple. We have been blindly following the process forced onto us, and we must act without asking for permission.
Very insightful. Tasty brain food. Marriage is a scam.
I would also add that without the state as a third party, there would be no force. If there is no force, then there is no entitlement. It becomes a voluntary relationship which means you can leave anytime you want. So without the state, “marriage” is really just a committed long term relationship 😂
Mutual entitlement doesn’t make sense. If you’re entitled to your partner’s body then you can demand sex but because she is also entitled to your body then she can demand you leave her alone. So whose entitlement rights win?
Mine
If your entitlement overrules her entitlement, then it’s not mutual and it is slavery lol
Someone’s gotta lead.
That’s a matter of opinion which I mostly agree with you on. But call a spade a spade. There is something beautiful about someone willingly choosing to give you their body as opposed to someone giving you their body because of some entitlement contract.
I don’t see the difference. If you’re the sole owner of a slave then you’re entitled to their body. If you’re entitled to someone’s body then you have control over what they do. That’s slavery. If your spouse wants your body and you can’t refuse then you’re a slave.
