Marriage a contract of sexual freedom or bondage?

[Richycryp]

   In my journey as a counselor, I've encountered numerous couples who confide in a shared sentiment:  the weight of societal expectations, often dictated by religious norms.

Many express a desire to break free from these constraints, imagining a world where love isn't bound by predefined parameters.

 Can we envision a scenario where colleagues and friends become more than just that? 

Should a married woman be free to respectfully pursue her varied sexual needs in a controlled setting as she please or should she imprison herself  away from what her body deeply desire.
 
Should loving someone not also mean to seek their happiness and satisfy their deepest needs.
Is our inclination towards monoamory not contributing to the high rate of divorce or failed marriages?

Does restricting the definition of love to a singular partner limit the possibilities for deep, meaningful connections?

 Let's unpack the potential repercussions of this age-old concept and question whether it aligns with the diverse realities of modern relationships.

Open relationship is often met with skepticism and intrigue. Can embracing non-traditional relationship structures be a key to unlocking happiness for some couples?

 Is it a path worth exploring, or does it challenge the very foundation of conventional love?


Shouldn't love be synonymous with joy and fulfillment?
 Let's challenge the narrative that restricts us and open our minds to the possibility that unconventional paths to happiness might lead to more fulfilling relationships.

So, dear forum companions, what are your thoughts on love breaking free from societal constraints?
Is monoamory the culprit behind marital challenges, and are open relationships a beacon of liberation?

What exists is what exists. For example, nobody can will himself to grow an extra set of arms below the original pair. Nobody seems to be able to set death aside; everybody dies. In the same way, we need to consider sexual freedom within the guidelines of what sex was made for.

The sex drive is very powerful in people. But why? In nature, there is only one real reason for sex... procreation. The pleasure and the pain is for procreation. Without procreation, the pleasures of sex don't really have any lasting meaning. They are here for a moment, then gone.

True sexual freedom is to use sex for the thing that it was meant for... procreation. Everything else sex is a waste of time.

I believe the answer to that issue belongs to each couple and their relationship. Some people may find marriage freeing because it provides peace of mind, safety and support. Others may find it restricted, as it reduces their independence and self-reliance. Others may feel both empowered and limited at times. Marriage is a so complicated and special moment that it is difficult to make generalize. Where people feel trapped or not prepared to leave a relationship, it may be due to love. Love can force some people to endure hardship and suffering even as they die, and no matter how you advise this group of people, they will not listen to you.

love that is free from social constraints is love that binds each other in the sense of marriage, because in my opinion marriage is done once in a lifetime of course I strongly reject infidelity, polygamy, deviance or the like which can destroy love, why do I think marriage is only do it once in your life because love is having, having affection, having rules in marriage, having each other. the breakdown of love into 3 parts, 1. being abandoned by death 2. infidelity 3. no longer being a soul mate (destiny). being left for dead = of course being left for dead in a relationship, it is very painful and heartbreaking to feel abandoned by the person we love so much, to return to ourselves, are we going to start a new life again after being left dead? . infidelity = cheating can never be forgiven! . no longer have a soul mate = essentially in my religion it is explained as how human destiny has been outlined, what it will be like, what it will be like in the future. because even love must believe in fate.

Marriage may not be the result or cause of love. It is a social institution that was established within the framework of birth control and determined according to utilitarian standards. That is, the relationship between love and marriage cannot be confirmed.

Regarding the issue of sexual freedom, it is assumed that it was established at the beginning of civilization because, according to cultures, marriage is a contract of commitment between a man and a woman who can be satisfied with one partner.
This may seem contrary to human nature, but it is consistent with the culture of societies in which the concept of family must be established, which is more comprehensive than the concepts of love and marriage.

Religion, customs and traditions often dictates what standards for marriage should be in any congregation or society, and if any couple goes against the dictates of their belief, then it's regarded as sin or taboo. Marital practices that is seen as normal in one setting can be seen as abnormal, but the one thing that marriages from different beliefs have in common is that it legitimizes the union of a couple.

Regarding the reasons why people personally choose to go into marriage, some could be to fulfill all righteousness so that people will accord them the respect of marriage, some to have a legal sex partner, some for companionship and many other reasons. Whether marriage is for sexual freedom or bondage depends on individual perspective and believe, but I believe that marriage should be for companionship and sex should be for procreation and enjoyment, not bondage, because many societies acknowledge divorce as an option to end a marriage that is not working.

It's fascinating how religion, customs and traditions shape our views on marriage, right? Going against those beliefs can make things taboo. Marital practices vary so much but the common thread is that marriage legitimizes the union. I'm with you on seeing marriage for companionship, reserving sex for joy and making babies. The fact that many societies accept divorce emphasizes the need for marriages to work based on companionship rather than feeling stuck

A girl should be allowed to have sex with whoever they want is what you are suggesting? Well, if their partner is okay with it then should be allowed and it's happening all over the world as well but most of the partners doesn't consent with that so if still the partner has intercourse with someone else then it becomes illegal afraid and the husband or wife who convict their partner can divorce and the one who feel satisfied with someone can love the same person who love to have sex with.

This is very complex depending on what type of culture you've grown up and the values you think is right and what you belief is wrong. Marriage is actually a commitment that both parties agreed to dealt with everything when you've been bonded together. It's not what we may think about the entire sex life but it's part of it as each other needs to be satisfied. I understand why a lot of people today are breaking up even under marriage because they probably have been too quick to decide when they've bonded. While some decides not to go with deep relationships and are into open relationships, as I've said this depends on the values that they've grown up and what they think suits them.

Some may say that it's immoral to get into such situations and relationships but again, it's not for you to decide to get into those relationships but them that have decided to do it. I have watched a lot of couples that are into it, both married and not and they seem to have fun and happy with the results. At the end of the day, you do you and what you think will make you happy and last long with your relationships.

Marriage is a sign of sexual freedom and legality of intercourse between husband and wife. The foundation of a relationship is strengthened through marriage. There is no agreement here trusting each other and making the right decision in all circumstances and where there is mutual agreement. Marriage is a good means and way to maintain family relations exchange mutual love self restraint and protect oneself from haram acts.

if someone has a sexual need of gratification daily, they should try to find the best partner that fulfills that need. and marry them. as its cleaner and healthy to have one partner, rather than the disease risks, and emotional tail spins of random selection/temporary relationships

however if after marriage the partner desires sex but not with their partner. then OBVIOUSLY they picked the wrong partner and yes this could/lead to divorce even if they had a open relationship or not, as the initial choice of marriage was with the wrong partner

in short dont marry someone unless they are all you want and need. as thats the point of marriage
spend time getting to know and experience someone before rushing to get a ring, actually fall head over heels inlove with someone, where they become your best friend, soulmate and perfect other half.. dont hope that a marriage certificate with a less-than-best option will grow into what you hope it would, instead be sure before putting a ring on it

basically if you love someone so much so that you can see yourself with that person and no one else, and they fulfil your needs THEN marry them. dont hope that marrying someone your not quite inlove with will turn into being inlove with due to some silly piece of paper

[Gozie51]

Society accept marriage as the confine for sexual gratification and if you are frolicking with other opposite sex then you are termed as irresponsible and someone with bad habit, not worthy to be looked up. So marriage is the acceptable enclave where sex is also accepted by the religion but it has also found itself in unmarried people of which religion condems it.

I think unmarried people and married people who do not keep to one particular are taking big risk with the rate of the increase in sexually transmitted infestions and disease. So in other not to throw yourself out to risk, it is better to stay with one single faithful partner for healthy life and sexual free risk.

Therefore, marriage is an institution for sexual freedom with one faithful partner not numerous partner, and not a bondage.

Relationship or unionship shouldn't be a impressment place for a one side persons whereas they're being conditionally with rightful denial from what brings joys to the unionship.
Where the problem comes is when one opposite side is less concerned about the feelings of the other meanwhile they were supposed to work as best of team.
There shouldn't be a gender sentiment in a marriage because the bonds of unionship should be an equality. Anyone can bring the joy and when it's present before you always appreciate it and don't tend to turn it down because ones treasure that is not valued is intolerable and not everyone who's willing to share their joyfullnees with just anyone so it you're lucky to have one who suits your ways, adore and accept it with all thy heart.
Respects for each other is the beginning of your mutual bonding.

Marriage is a complex union that know one can graduate from, if it is the real marriage that I know, it is only women that are in this sexual bondage with only their husband but the man can always get it elsewhere, people believe that a man can do whatever he like in terms of sex but I don't think that such is right, as far marriage is concerned, a man is not suppose to cheat on his wife that's why it is called a union, one you agree on those marriage vows as a man you are not suppose to do otherwise again if not this might lead your wife to doing the same too and it won't be funny.

When she is in her husband house and the guy have paid her bribe price, I guess the guy will be having sex as he want, but if the guy has not paid her bribe price and you allow he to have sex , he will begin to see you as a cheap person and there will not going to be a respect from the guy.

There are many people that have such thing in mind to ask their wife or husband question before going into marriage because, they like sex like the way they like food and once you hear it from your wife or husband to be that is good in that aspect, nothing will make such couple to think of divorce in the future.

Should a married woman be free to respectfully pursue her varied sexual needs in a controlled setting as she please or should she imprison herself  away from what her body deeply desire.

Does this make any sense in anyway if we're to be rational outside religion. How do you define prostitution generally.
 

Should loving someone not also mean to seek their happiness and satisfy their deepest needs.

When you fall in love with the right person and in return, ,you will all know the beauty of marriage as an institution that breed happiness, two people coming together to creates and builds a home not a house that's marriage.
