Well first of all let me say that I'm not being completely serious in this thread. I believe that sex is not something to be had willy nilly but to be had with someone special, but that someone special doesn't have to be dictated by marriage. I do not endorse having babies until one is married or with someone they will stay with for a long time to raise the child (although many strong women are able to raise children by themselves since we men are horrible people.) Unfortunately so. But more often that not it ends up being decidedly inconvenient and problematic to the finances doesn't it? With the current divorce rate, yes. And women buying clothes and shoes, definitely.
