It is stunning that anyone would consider it at all except for society pressure.

That's capitalism for you.
Of course they're going to push marriages on people because they would lose billions of people stopped getting married.
I'm grateful that my rather unconventional life experiences with me having to learn everything that I did on my own without others helping me taught me to look at things subjectively and formulate my own opinion about things instead of simply believing what other people want me to. I'm grateful to be an outcast who has no desire whatsoever to be normal or fit in. If people don't like me for being different, I have no need for them in my life.
In the very unlikely event that I ever get married, I am not paying for a fancy ceremony or anything. I will do things my own way and those who don't like it can GTFO.
