I think you have a case of correlation means causation.
I know I’m not getting married again. Burnt once in a divorce is sufficient.
Or to use an old adage- why buy the cow when you get the milk for free?
Exactly right!
Men (covertly) have pushed "Feminism" to make satisfying their sexual needs much easier than ever. Used to be that women could "hold out", and land a husband, OR, believe that sex was an intimacy with a spouse, not THE WHOLE NEIGHBORHOOD or half the kids in a class she teaches....
NEVER has it been so easy for men to find "willing" women, at least as I've seen in 50 years of "observation".
Yes; women were made to THINK they are "in control of their own bodies" with the Feminism, but, in fact, they're being used and don't even recognize what's happened.
We wonder why families are not nuclear families anymore, but now the "norm" is where both parents work to pay the taxes and bills, yet, women think they've "advanced" from being stay-at-home Mom's, to "career girls".
Or, from MY perspective (nearly wiped out financially by my drug-addled ex):
“Why buy the pig when all you want is a little sausage?”
*SMIRK* :)
You have touched on the crux of the problem - premarital sex. This is yet another testimony to the collapse of western culture.
and we wonder why this society is so base and immoral....
LOL! I didn't see that you'd written that, before I posted it, too. I can remember my Daddy saying that, when reading or hearing about feminists and their notions of sexual freedom.
