Religion is the opium of the masses.
Our bourgeois, not content with having the wives and daughters of their proletarians at their disposal, not to speak of common prostitutes, take the greatest pleasure in seducing each other's wives. Bourgeois marriage is in reality a system of wives in common and thus, at the most, what the Communists might possibly be reproached with, is that they desire to introduce, in substitution for a hypocritically concealed, an openly legalised community of women. For the rest, it is self-evident that the abolition of the present system of production must bring with it the abolition of the community of women springing from that system, i.e., of prostitution both public and private.β

Really funny how Marx objectively wrote very little about how a communist system would look like, all of his writing is just analyzing the capitalist system as he saw it (positive economics), and saying the proletariat just needs to rise up and create a new system (how this new system will work? shit idk no class or some shit)
