Marriage is gobbledygook, a gallimaufry of biblical, classical, courtly and Christian rules and mores. Historically, the ritual was a way to regulate procreation and tighten the screws on unbridled lust – especially female lust. Relatively recently, marriage became a tribute to romantic love and lifelong companionship. But it does not always affirm the optimism the institution celebrates.
