'I step into the great unknown,
and a ball and chain I call my own,
because marriage doesn't work in the world today,
It's an institution that is in decay
and if I have love I wish to portray,
I will surely find another way.'

I would say for a lot of those reasons, but mostly because they want to spend their lives together

It depends on the couple. Any of the above reasons may influence their decision.

I will only get married if I know I want to spend the rest of my life with someone, and they feel the same about me.

So that they could finally safely burp and eat like a pig without having to worry about breaking up.

I would have to say basically all the above and it puzzles me as to why a transgendered person he who marries
turns around to become a woman that i do not really understand or get ?

That only explains why women and gay men do it, though.

All of the above. I think the worst reason to get married is if you or your girlfriend becomes pregnant.

To become enternally bonded to your beloved.

So that they can have sex, if they don't believe in sex before marriage. So that they can be confident of their partner's commitment. So that they can convince themselves of their own commitment. Because they don't know how to refuse a proposal. Because no-one better seems to be coming along. Because they believe it is a way of expressing their love for one another. Because they're pregnant. Because their parents say they have to. Because they were raped. Because they need financial security. Because their children need another parent. Because they are lonely. Because they are drunk. Because it seems like the next step.

There are a lot of reasons...
