Whatever issue there is, two sides exist. These two sides make this more interesting. The pros and the cons, which support each side, are the reason why the issue exists in the first place.
Let's talk about the issue about men and women. In their relationship, the presence of one complements that of the other. What one lacks, the other supplements. This may hold true in terms of physical capabilities, skills, emotional weaknesses, or even financial capacity. The sad thing is, seldom do couples appreciate their partner's role as the force that supports each of their weaknesses. Because of this lack of appreciation, many marriages crumble.

As i have said earlier, marriage has two sides, one side says that a marriage is just a piece of paper. Here are some points that regarding this statement:
1. Once you've affixed your signature on a piece of paper, you can change it by signing another piece of paper. This side believes that marriage is controlled by the couple - how strong or how weak they are attached to each other. Just like paper, marriage is disposable.
2. The contract in the marriage isn't the reason and the basis for the union. This means that marriage is not permanent. The couple may continue to live together or they can choose to go their separate ways.
3. Getting married, therefore, is not the reason that couples hold on to each other. Even marriage cannot keep a crumbling relationship.
4. Marriage can be affected as the couple continue to grow. In this process, differences will come up which can either affect the relationship negatively or favorably.
There are those, however, who believe in the sanctity of marriage. This side says that it is a force that binds the relationship. Here are the pros for this side:
1. Marriage is a sacrament. The Church makes it possible, hence, "what God has joined together, let no man put asunder."
2. Marriage is necessary to prove one's love to his or her partner. It serves as a social seal of approval, especially where children are concerned.
3. Marriage strengthens the bond since it puts a legal seal of oneness between the couple.
4. Marriage always makes a family genuine, whether legally or religiously.
Whatever the side, there is always a side that couples believe in, and they are the only ones who know their reasons for choosing which side to be on.
