Engels didn't believe in marriage, he called it "legalized prostitution." He was close to two Irish women throughout his life though, but he was also a serial womanizer. He had an informal marriage on his deathbed with one of the Irish women.

Huh, didn't know that they weren't married until she was on her deathbed. I just know that there was reference to his wife.

I think my point still stands, that this was meant as a parlor game and his responses are meant to be funny rather than serious.
