I want to add this into the article.

Same Sex Marriage:

It is found that in same sex marriages, marriage has a more positive effect than negative. Single persons in the same sex world happen to be more distressed. It appears that marriage diminishes mental health issues between people in the same sex community.[1]

Traditional Marriage:

Healthier people in marriages may have a better chance of having a successful marriage. Due to the fact that a healthier person may be more appealing to their partner. Married people are generally happier than unmarried people. It is said that marriage can affect your health in many ways. For example, having a higher income could improve the health care you receive or lower stress. In certain marriages, a spouse may help in monitoring and encouraging healthy behaviors. As well as discouraging unhealthy habits. Marriage may provide an emotional fulfilling relationship. Which would satisfy the need for a social connection. This could have implications on a person's physical and mental health. Marriage is able to reduce depressive symptoms for both men and women. As marriage is able to reduce them, divorce is able to increase them. [2]

Marriage can also be associated with less healthier behaviors. For example, alcohol consumption, drug use, cigarette smoking, diet, and exercise. [2]

Divorce:

As time goes on, many changes have affected divorce and marriage rates.

Approximately 43% of people who get married at ages 15-16 get divorced. The rate for college marriages ending up in divorce, is a little less compared to high school. It happens to be 30%. Divorce rates decline as educational attainment increases. It is also said that people who marry later are less inclined to get divorced. [3]

Differences Between Sex, Race, and Education.

In opposition to men, women are more likely to get married and remarried. They are also more likely to get married younger. In comparison to Hispanics and Whites, Blacks were less likely to get married and more likely to get divorced. People who did not complete high school were less likely to get married over people who did complete high school. [3] Kylagauthier (talk) 15:50, 4 May 2018 (UTC)
