While many people have a lot of faith in the institution of marriage. there are numerous reasons it is an outdated concept. Firstly, it came about to protect women.
A few centuries ago and in some parts of the world even today, women are treated as objects for sex. They get raped by numerous men and are impregnated with no assistance to raise the child.
For this reason, religious leaders at the time came about with marriage so that woman had some status in a society.
This was the reason the whole concept of a woman being someone's 'property' came about. If a woman seen as someone else's property people usually stayed away and respected the fact that she was another man's.
Finally, marriage was often seen as a necessity for establishing family and ensuring financial security of both the husband and wife. In many cultures marriage was also a way for individuals to gain social status and fulfill religious and cultural obligations.
