This lady is an academic. Her points are, in order: 1. Irrelevant to modern day 2. Wrong, vows are equal 3. Wrong, bridesmaids are a choice 4. Wrong, civil marriages aren’t religious 5. Wrong, nothing sexist about marriage 6. Wrong, only if you’re married to the wrong personhttps://twitter.com/leanderreeves/status/1011922337711747072 …

it's twitter - one does one's best. Well, if I ever get around to writing a paper on why I think wedding ceremonies can be sexist - then I will remember to credit this exchange.

Julia, with 50% of kids going to "University" > ahem< now, surely the cache of the term "academic" has been bolstered and not undermined at all............pic.twitter.com/y9pVlZlgaz

Why are you taking this so personally? It doesn't affect you and it's a nice option to have for some people who don't like wedding ceremonies. I think Leander's view is well articulated and makes sense--exactly what I'd expect from a good academic, since you pointed that out.
