In the process of creating a transitional state from capitalism to socialism, the workers' state must tread a fine line between capitalism and socialism, making sure not to overstep bounds on suppressing culture to the extent that it foments reactionary forces. The institution of marriage has existed since the advent of agriculture, and dissolution of this institution would require a post-scarcity environment for all people as well as a dissolution of all traditional cultural values, as marriage largely exists as a means of allowing financial security and legal integration of familial circles.
Don’t mean to flame or anything, not educated on China so I won’t have much arguing to give but,
Is it really understandable that they aren’t focusing on it? Like how much energy does it take in a single party system to just zoom abolition of marriage through? Like would it really detract from their other focuses that much?

I mean, people like getting married.
They could just gradually make it not really matter legally, and then wait a generation and remove it once it doesn't matter.
(It was a joke where I was copy-pasting a response from the gay marriage in China thread.)
