You speak the truth. I have three sons and my advice to them on getting married is "Don't". Why engage in an activity where the risk of and price of failure for a man is so high. Stick to bungee jumping and rock climbing.

You're not making it easy for an 18-year-old who has recently escaped one sexual pitfall and wants to do the right thing now. *Smirks*

Parents have been known to give misguided advice and children to ignore it. My eldest son is a knock-off of Brad Pitt except he's into scuba, boxing and weight-lifting so is a bit beefier and he regularly ignores my advice, but not on marriage, so far!
