In 1965, Vietnam War draft-eligible men sought marriage to lower their chances of serving. Yet evidence suggests these war-induced younger marriages were LESS likely to result in divorce 15 years later.

I've lost count of the number of conservative #evangelical Christians that I've talked to over the last decade about #ClimatePolicy, and in the course of the conversation, they affirm their understanding/acceptance of the science, their acknowledgment of the practical urgency, the cogency and power of the ethical imperative, the need for public policy changes, yet who have nonetheless refused to consider a vote for anyone but the (conservative, significantly climate-denying, pro-coal & gas) #Coalition.
The reason? One or both of two other issues they see as more important, both of which have to do with sex: namely, the legal status of #abortion and of same gender #marriage.
In the last five years, both these issues have been resolved (the former in NSW, the latter federally) by conservative Coalition governments enacting legislation to legalise them, against the deep convictions of these evangelicals.
However, I can count on one hand the number of conservative evangelicals who have told me they now intend to change their vote as a result of these moves. Despite telling me that the only reason they were voting for the anti-climate Coalition was to keep one/both of these things illegal.
There is a #NSWelection this Saturday. One more week to convince some of them...

"In Red America, conservative legislatures have normalized insane state laws empowering bounty hunters to identify, harass and sue women who obtain abortions and the doctors who provide them.
As our stock market brings in strong quarterly profits for shareholders, gay and lesbian Americans face the very real risk that the Supreme Court decision that legalizes their marriages could soon be overturned."

@DieselMcBeef @zero when I amd my #husband first began #dating, our very first date in fact — which was a gay #marriage equality protest — I made it clear that I am #kinky and in the public #BDSM scene and already had a #kink #family I’d become a part of. This is a part of me. It’s OK if he’s not into that but I do have people I can explore this part of me with regardless. Takes the pressure off in a way.
Further I expressed that I am a #slut. I believe in relationships and was totally open to having kids. I was happy to cool it down while we explored what we might have together. But at some point we’d need to address the slut in the room.
We did stay together. We did open up. We have a 9 year old now. Nothing’s ever perfect but we’re still at it, 15 years later. Heh.

@FrChazzz I would agree that #marriage isn’t a #sacrament to us the way that it is to Catholics. But that doesn’t mean that the only alternative is that it’s something “we came up with.” While it has taken different forms based on culture and legal systems, marriage is something God created and the basic elements of it, the intent and pattern of it, are found in #scripture. It is never same-sex in the Bible, always hetero. I would say that marriage is #ordained.
A quotation from Child, Lydia Marie:
«««««
In the first place, an unjust law exists in this Commonwealth [of Massachusetts], by which marriages between persons of different color is pronounced illegal. I am perfectly aware of the gross ridicule to which I may subject myself by alluding to this particular; but I have lived too long, and observed too much, to be d…

/2 So why are we still having arguments about #samesexmarriage in the #Anglican world? Our own documents note that #marriage is something we came up with and that we have the authority to change as a result.
(#Anglican nerd post) Just reading the 39 Articles (like one does) and noticed something: Article 34 states “Every particular or national Church hath authority to ordain, change, and abolish Ceremonies or Rites of the Church ordained only by man’s (sic) authority, so that all things be done to edifying.”
THEN, Article 24 (on the #sacraments ) says, of #marriage , that it is not to be counted as a “Sacrament of the Gospel” because it “[has] not any visible sign or ceremony ordained of God.” /1

A wife’s tribute to a long and happy #marriage
I wish to tell of a surpassing gift
How do I begin
To tell the story so long in the living
Yet barely a page complete
Too young we stepped into our beginning
How do I explain
The senseless arrows of pain we threw
Whose images still remain
As we learned with days of life
Our separate goals entwined
Youthful vision narrowed on self
Stretched to fill the needs of two

Yeah that is great for them, but it is really fucking shit when you get used by a married guy to save his marriage, which is what happened to me.

Lord Bellamy confirms that a review of the law on financial provision on divorce will be announced ‘very shortly’ and ‘hopefully by the Law Commission’: https://lnkd.in/eidHxymc
Meanwhile, we still await a Government response to the Law Commission’s report on marriage law …
A new book, Convening Black Intimacy, explores the history of #Christianity, gender and precolonial #marriage and sex traditions in South Africa in the late 1800s and early 1900s.
To conduct her study, historian Natasha Erlank drew on court records of cases of seduction, church records, anthropological texts, and many sources from black authors, including black newspapers and novels as well as songs sung by black women.
#Tennessee House PASSED a bill That allows anyone to refuse to solemnize a marriage if they disagree with it.
This is worded specifically to include a judge being able to refuse a legal union based on their personal beliefs
This allows people to refuse to marry queer couples, trans couples, even interracial couples.
They are coming for ALL OF US not just trans people

I was happy while married. I was very happy, in fact I would get married again.
Was I always happy? No, no sir. The last month of marriage and the next 5 months after were Hell on Earth.
To this day, after 5 years it is still kinda painful and kinda tiring.
For years I have read this comic strip Marriage is Bliss. Now, that makes me optimistic.

She's been playing probably 4 hours at this point and I don't think she realizes it's 1AM. I still hear the living room TV going, so I'm just gonna let her go, she deserves the chance to unwind with something she enjoys. I look forward to her trying to sneak in bed at some ungodly hour, 😋

First the #idaho legislature came to ban Spanish & even though I objected, it’s not my native language so I knew I’d get by. But then lawmakers came for my right to #abortion & I protested but knew it affected me little because I’m old & #queer. Next they came denying the right for queers to be served by gas stations, stores & restaurants, even lunch counters— but it was #covid & I wasn’t eating out. Soon they came for my right to be #vaccinated & I knew I had a strong immune system so I’d likely survive. When they came for my #marriage I was bothered & said so, knowing I could cross into #nevada for new one from the little chapel with the blinking lights. When they came for the hormones #trans kids need to protect themselves from puberty, I fought hard, though I was already most certainly old. At last, when they came for our right to cross state lines to find those tattered parts of our freedom, my pleas were too late as my crossing had become a felony and they locked me in jail.
Our response to being loved reveals a lot about the way we view ourselves.

Meanwhile, other research from groups like UNICEF has argued any loopholes are largely insufficient to address coerced marriage—depriving the child of any agency in the decision.
"Parental approval can often be synonymous with parental coercion—especially in the case of an unexpected pregnancy, financial instability or other situations that might influence a parent's decision," a 2021 UNICEF policy brief reads. "In all scenarios, child marriage limits the rights of a child and deprives them of the opportunity to control their future."
If you are now, or have ever been married, I'm curious, have you ever been divorced? I've seen a variety of studies claiming one thing or another, but they don't seem to line up with my anecdotal, real life observations. So if you don't mind, even if you're happily married now, I'd like to know if you've ever been divorced.
Let's spread some love and happiness!

① #Marriage and family life:
“Conservatives are more likely than liberals to be happily married, simply because they’re more likely to be married in the first place. […] Ideology predicts marital status among Americans about as well as income or education.”
— https://ifstudies.org/blog/more-than-money-the-liberal-conservative-divide-in-marriage/
Possible flaw: I suspect age correlates with both probability of being married and with probability of leaning right, so when you look at who’s married today, some of those (happily) married who declare to be conservatives would have been singles who identified as liberals two or three decades earlier. In other words: perhaps it’s not that being a liberal makes you less likely to marry, but that being married and having children moves you closer to conservatism!

@rhiannongrant @quakers I'm going to respectfully point out that Kenyan #Quakers explicitly define #marriage as between one man and one woman. There's a long history of concern within the US with African Friends and their treatment of #LGBTQ people.

So, long story short I'm a terrible baker and somehow I agreed to bake my wife a croquembouche for her birthday, possibly one of the most complex dishes out there (somewhere in the range of 6-8 hours of effort). My wife enjoyed several glasses of prosecco and invited a bunch of friends over to mock me in the kitchen as I fumbled my way through the recipe (the peanut gallery was part of the deal; I didn't mind).
Let's be real, this thing looks TERRIBLE and that's mostly because the shoux pastry didn't rise (apparently I added too many eggs) but let it be known that I absolutely nailed the custard and the caramel, way above everyone's expectations. It tastes great too (mainly because of the custard).
"You know, he was one egg away from making a proper croquembouche, god dammit" - my wife, half in surprise and half in disgust

Bible Scholar, Jennifer Bird describes why Biblical Marriage is not what you think it is. I've listened to this 5 times now and think Dr. Bird and her insights are incredible.
Someone better put Ben Shapiro and Matt Walsh on notice.

Wrote this back in 2014: why I believe the Church of England should support equal marriage - Heaven is weeping: an open letter to the House of Bishops. It remains as relevant today, methinks, as it was then:
Painting this watercolor painting was almost like meditation - applying layer of paint over layer...over layer... The hardest part was to wait until the previous layer has dried.

Indigo heart is a contemporary abstract acrylic painting of a heart, the symbol of love and romance. The abstracted background is implying all the bright colors of the rainbow. Inside the heart these colours are echoing. Let your love shine in all the colors.

My most recent fiction publication is a #poem is up on my blog.
"Marriage Hack" is a futuristic #SciFi nod to the politics of same-sex #marriage over the past ten years.

This is great! Be sure to read the fine print, too 😉 #CriticalThinking #Learning #Cults #Religions #politics #marriage
Evidence-free hypothesis of the day: "A happy marriage is more complex than an unhappy one." #marriage #complexity
The US House of Representatives has passed #legislation that will enshrine #marriage #equality in #federal #law, protecting the rights of #same-sex and #inter-racial couples. 39 Republicans joined Democrats to vote in favour of the #Respect for Marriage act. President Biden says he’ll sign the legislation proudly and promptly.
@stevetex has made it to the road on the tractor and is now plowing the neighborhood road. One of the neighbors came out and asked him if he was from the snow plow company and he said yes. So now I am debating about whether I have to tell the neighborhood I'm sleeping with the snow plow guy. 🤔 #marriage #snow #wawx
This funny little clip is from an #animation I created for Money Magazine, illustrating the results of an interesting survey they did of American married couples and their attitudes about #money.
The ATM in this clip shows the following fun fact: "61% (of married people) check bank balances more frequently than they have sex."
I grew up really believing in the handsome prince fantasy. (I even [wince] bought these Cinderella plates.) Back on planet Earth, I never saw I red flag I didn’t like. My ex husband was an entire red flag parade. 🚩 🚩🚩 Our marriage was your basic Heaven/Hell mashup. I still have some hope for the future, but I’m not betting my pumpkin on it. #Love #Romantic #Fantasy #RedFlag #Marriage #Hope
Thank you to those 62 senators who have vowed to pass the "Respect for Marriage Act" that protects same-sex and interracial marriages.
SCOTUS judge Ginni Thomas couldn't be reached for comment. But she's likely feeling very conflicted.
