The advantages of marriage between a man and woman include:
- the combined experience to raise both boys and girls
- enjoyment and interests in complementary aspects of childrearing
- having a partner with different, and complimentary, outlook and concerns
- in the absence of sexually transmitted diseases or infertility, the ability to have children from birth
- having a partner with different domestic interests and abilities
- the combined experience to deal with others
- an institution that has thrived for millennia
- less domestic violence due to very different physical strengths and different reactions to problems
- less tendency for partners to compete, and more tendency for positive reinforcement
