Other good reasons include for medical purposes. Not only insurance but the ability to make decisions for each other during health emergencies. Also being married allows you to save more money in certain investment accts, lower car insurance, less taxes because you can itemize together (whereas you didn't make the threshold individually).
I got married after a theoretical argument about who would take the pets if we broke up. If we're married then it entitles us to spend a stupid ammt of money to fight over the dog in divorce court.

Seems counter-intuitive unless your wife owned the dogs and you were angling to take them.
Nah civil union is the same for medical decisions and successions and all. Bonus points for pets yes.
That's what I thought, until the state I lived in rolled out gay marriage. When they legalized faggotry, they reversed a bunch of civil marriage laws. It was a real PITA.
