Cheating is stupid, not marriage.
Infidelity/Adultery is not merely stupidity - it is deep betrayal and flat-out abuse that impacts not only the spouse, but children even worse.
Being married to someone who abuses their spouse/children via their infidelity/adultery allows the State to abuse the betrayed spouse as much, if not worse, than their backstabbing spouse.
Why?
Because the State does not give one fucking shit about the injustice and abuse of the infidelity/adultery - no matter how heinous, deceptive, and despicable the adulterous spouse was to the betrayed spouse and their children.
And that is stupid, to put it mildly.
If the State is going sanction and require licensing for a marriage, then they should recognize and protect the most very fundamental and basic tenet of it - Trust.
