Marriage

Marriage is a social, legal, or religious contract between individuals that establishes a partnership, typically characterized by a commitment to mutual support, love, and often the intention to share a life together. It usually involves a formal ceremony and comes with specific rights and responsibilities recognized by society, law, or religious institutions. Marriage can provide various benefits, including emotional support, financial stability, and legal rights concerning property, inheritance, and decision-making in health care. The concept of marriage varies across cultures and can include different forms such as monogamy, polygamy, and same-sex unions, each with its own traditions and legal implications.
