YOUR ASSERTION ABOUT THE "NATURAL FAMILY" IS INTERESTING. In most cultures it takes a lot of strenuous control to keep these "natural families" together and make them the "natural" option. The United States has one of the highest divorce rates despite 200 years of devout Christian influence protecting the "natural" family from "unnatural" evil influences.

Where do you get the idea that a highly refined cultural practice --monogamous formalized marriage with legal and cultural practices support it and a large commercial industry behind it--is actually natural?

Go study bonobos.
