Interpretation

What this quote means

Marriage can be viewed as a societal construct that people rush to define rather than an authentic expression of love.

In this quote, Lady Gaga expresses skepticism about the traditional view of marriage, suggesting that many people perceive it more as a goal or societal expectation rather than a genuine commitment. She emphasizes the societal pressure to label and define romantic relationships swiftly, which can detract from a true understanding and appreciation of the partnership itself.
