Personally, I married pretty late. I was 17 years older than my parents when I married.

    Almost past the 4 oh, and consider the institution of marriage in a legal sense, an outdated scam of misogynistic patriarchal nonsense. I know there are a broad spectrum of roles, not just CIS, and it has to do with inheritance/benefits/property/etc. Don’t catfish my stereotype that has obvious exceptions. All I’m saying is that I feel like the system has a misogynistic patriarchal asymmetrical prejudice built in. I am not interested in the type of asymmetric role I was raised to accept in a religious extremest culture. In my personal situation, this would be a disadvantage, but still, I have no interest in an asymmetric relationship of any kind. IMO, marriage is like a will that is only useful in old age.
