Rowlf: Over ruled
Animal: Over ruled? No over ruled! No over ruled! (starts to eat breifcase)

First of all, they don't really get married. You see, what we decided the last time we had this conversation at the old forum was that Fraggles have a much different, um, maturity growth than us humans. While we spend most of our lives as adults, they spend most of theirs as children. It's not until the end of their "cycle" (this has been referred to in many an episode) that their mature and reproduce. Of course, that's only what a group of us came up with, you don't have to believe it, heck you can make up your own answer!
I think at one time one of the puppeteers wrote an article on the evolution of the Fraggles and went into detail about the life cycle then.
