The drive to reproduce is encoded in our genes, and marriage often feels like the safest, and most stable place to start. Not everyone feels the need to get married before having kids, but once married, many couples (gay or straight in fact) start feeling a level of stability that encourages reproduction.

Do children still matter to a marriage?

In most cases a couple plans when to have their children. Some may want to build up their careers before having children; others want to wait a couple of years; previously married people with children may not want to start another family in their second marriage or, some couples just decide not to have children for various reasons. When one of the couples does not want children they should discuss this with the person they intend on getting engaged too in case that person does want children.

Is a married couple without a child called a family?

Not every couple wants to have children. Some married couples are happy together and choose to remain childless. Other married couples want to have kids but for some reason, they cannot. In western culture, some studies show about 7-10% of people are childless by choice, although there is no way to know if that figure is accurate. In the modern world, people make decisions about whether to have a family, how large they want that family to be, when they want to begin having children or whether they prefer not to have any. A married couple without children (whether by choice or because they cannot have children due to health reasons) would simply be called "a married couple who have no children."
