History of Marriage

I've been meaning to write a good history of marriage.
It's certainly not as cut and dried as some groups would have us believe these days!
You think the fight over gay marriage is intense?
The fight for the right to marry for love... puts it to shame.

Anyway, there's a nice post up on livescience.com today..
