So we're drifting in this in-between place where civil marriage is a charade and no one is offering alternatives.

It appears you speak of social conservatives as if they do a bad thing in lobbying to maintain the marriage tradition and protect its meaning. I think they find it difficult to fathom how civil marriage can be reformed into anything but a charade without the stipulation of utter faithfulness and devotion.

Speaking personally, serial monogamy strikes my sensibilities as little more than what dogs and horses experience. And apparently unlike the brute beasts, human children suffer terribly from it.
