[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People are simply less interested in having children. They see what’s going on with climate change, they worry about the environment, they worry about having any type of retirement. It’s harder to buy a house. It’s just less attractive to have kids. If you don’t want kids, marriage, all of a sudden becomes a lot less attractive. I agree that for raising kids marriage, assuming it’s a decent one, not to an addict or an abuser or a complete loser, is still probably the ideal. But if you’re less interested in kids, you’re going to be less interested in marriage. [/quote] If a woman is not religious, doesn't want to have kids, and isn't looking for some financial gain, then what does marriage offer her? The risks are too significant, and the benefits too small. You can have loving companionship without the mess of a marriage. [/quote]
