Basically, young people see the marriage "thing" as something that's not available to them. It's something the previous generations participated in.
There's a lot of truth to this.


indeed. lot's of family stuff was begun to create a growing, and viable economy. no need to get into that. it'll just ruffle feathers, cause the bristles on the back of the neck of some individuals to rise up.

not being able to afford a family is very real. that is, they'd be in deep poverty from the start and who wants their baby to have to endure that?

sex drive is with us though. well some of us.

as we move further into the post modern world and economy old patterns of behavior are breaking down, for better or worse.



For better or worse?

What’s the upside, Gus?
