History of what? Marriage?
It has become that because of religion and a desire for one set of persons to say how another set of persons should live.
Again-Marriage is older than the bible and just because religion now says that you can do this or cannot do that doesn't mean it's right.
BTW if a man wants to marry his goat he wouldn't because he would not gain anything materialistic from that union which is what marriage was in the first place.
He could shag it, if that's his desire but he probably wouldn't marry it.
In fact I am unsure as to your goal regarding this topic. You say you are not a 'church' person but then admit to saying that Marriage is between a man and a woman which is definitely a religious view regardless of your own beliefs.
