[size=14pt]Marriage in life is not a necessity,you can verify that from the pope.

Marriage is an individuals choice and opinion,so it cannot be a tradition.[/size]

Tradition.It is expected of mature individuals in the society to eventually engage in it.This ofcourse is a wrong reason to get married.Only marriages based on mutual love(very rear) are
justified.any other reason is nonsence.

[size=18pt]Marriage is the bedrock of the family and the family is important in the functionality of the community in every society.
Imagine the anarchy that would occur in a society where people don't marry.
Marriage helps in the development of the society. [/size]

NoContract: Marriage is YOUR PERSONAL choice. Whatever the consequences is not my concern!!!

This is exactly what many brutish men do to their wives.

Tradition not binding on anyone to propagate. Or better put,its a personal choice.

Marriage is a decision. If u are d type dt can take decision by urself and stand by it, then, u can decide to marry or not to. If u always stand and be responsible 4 ur decisions, including getting married or not, no one should be able to force, intimidate, persuade, pressurise, appeal or beg u to do what u have decided to do or not to do, so marriage is a decision u take by urself.

u hvnt answered the question.

Duduconfirm: How do you view marriage is it a necessity, tradition, all or none of the above

marriage is a necessity cos it ensures procreation, companionship and it is a means of fulfilling our conjugal needs- however, how it is ordered, if i am to use that word, is what makes it traditional. Whether you marry or not violates no traditional laws but doing it write is what matters. I am aware of the hell that unmarried people of our society go through but that doesnt make it no more a tradition.

centje: u hvnt answered the question.

He has.
in other words: Marriage is necessary to maintain order in a society.
(This isn't my opinion)

foyeks2001: None of d above but rather
Marriage is
For procreation
For companionship
For d avoidance of sin(fornication)

those can be grouped as functions of marriage not what describes it

It depends on d reason you're getting married. If you're going into it cos all ur friends are married n dat they are leaving with their partner, it becomes a tradition to u. Bt wen u found dat missing rib n dat wonderful person completing ur better half n d person u can't live without, then it becomes necessary to u to get married to him/her cos all u do, c n think revolves around d person.

Ask google. lol [left][/left]

Isn't getting married to the person you 'complete the half rib' or whatever a tradition? Isn't it possible to remain without getting married and still be complete? Comeon!

Its not a necessity o neither is it tradition but in recent times people have decided to Ơ̴̴̴̴͡.̮Ơ̴̴̴͡ it as sometin everybody has to do. Its not meant for everyone abeg.
Agreed its ordained by God but even God didn't say its compulsory instead the bible said it is a good tin.
If u can't handle it then dont bother. If u allow ur parents to rush u into marriage, afta buyin aso ebi, dancing etigi and azonto na him go know say no be beans wen everybody don go their house and na u n ur hubby remain.

It depends on the society or environment in which you find yourself. Only a fool would underestimate the power of one's environment to shape his or her life orientation and choices. At the end of the day, we humans are products of our environments. The environment is the most important determining factor. Marriage is neither a necessity nor a traditional requirement in most western countries. However, in Nigeria, it is a different story altogether. . .

In a country like Nigeria, where the deep-rooted cultural, religious, social, and familial ideal is that 'normal' people - especially women - ought to be married (and have children) at a certain age, marriage is almost a necessity. Any never-married 45 year old woman in Nigeria would be sneered at overtly and/or covertly, that is certain. . .

For women, the Nigerian society deems it more important to be married (or at least previously married) than to have a career and never been married. As such, having a regular career is not enough consolation for being single at 39. .at least in the eyes of your family, relatives, neighbours, colleagues, and the larger society - irrespective of what you choose to believe. The alternative is to relocate overseas where you would be free from such perceptions and cultural judgments.

For men though, it's more a matter of choice (based on tradition) than necessity. Even then, is almost a cultural imperative. . .although society is more forgiving of unmarried men than unmarried women.

Marriage is a necessity.
Marriage is a tradition.
Marriage is both of the above.
Marriage is neither of the above.
It all depends on your perception of marriage.
While it is a living hell for some, marriage is a safe haven for others.

Marriage is just like an ionic chemical combination. The electrons are d responsibilities. Women= metals. Men= non metals. Until i find an element that believes in covalent bonding, i may still be a spectator.
