The lesson should be not to have sex with women you wouldn’t want to be married to.
One of the problems is the lack of low cost, high quality legal prostitution. /sarc
I agree with both of you. Personally, married (to 1 woman) for 38+ years. I know the strength of being married, and the strength it takes to make a marriage work (for both parties). Most of the devastation seems to be occurring with anchorless younger men (relatively speaking). They are disillusioned by all the foundational institutions who have ever been who now have proven that they are not the answer. A wife, once a prize to be pursued, is now something to fear and shun due to the unrealistic expectations that today’s feminazi teachings put forth. I have so many stories of younger men who are pummeled by the new system. Those stories being played out are examples to even younger men to fear marriage, rather than pursue it. I fear for all my grandkids who now have to face these minefields. I only hope they have the wisdom to look for gold in the purest sense, and not that of a gold digger...
And who wouldn't want to marry you. In short, there is no substitute for marriage before sex. It's where the, well, I was going to say the "rubber meets the road", but you know what I mean. There is no substitute for real commitment; no atheists in foxholes... oh, wait... there I go again.
