I think it's a fun little activity which is completely arbitrary and which is just a concept that should be free to anyone to take advantage of but it's unnecessary.

PROS:

1. Benefits on Insurance and Taxes and Pension. (Yes i wrote the financial part first)
2. It makes your legal life easier in case of medical or financial emergencies.
3. It Gives You a Chance to Celebrate Your Coupledom
4. It provides men/women with security if one fine day the other decides to get up and leave.
5. You Get New Labels That Reflect the Seriousness of Your Relationship.

CONS:

1. You're Subject to Others' Expectations and Rules.
2. Weddings are expensive.
3. Divorces are more expensice.
4. Commitment Phobia could ruin what is already good.

p.s. im not talking about love

Following this rule reduced the answer by a lot.

I do not see how marriage can prevent people from adultery or prostitution

1st if you're not married then you can't commit adultery since adultery is cheating on someone you're married with so if you're not married you can't commit adultry

2nd you can be married whilst being a prostitute and you can even hire prostitutes to commit adultry
