In my work I have met many men who told me how they had to marry their wives becasue of the pregnancy. They felt used.

I always thought that the time a young couple spends together prior to the children arriving as the cement to help lay a strong foundation in the marriage.

It can be.

All of this would be a moot point if women had higher standards for men, such as expecting them to wait until marriage to have sex.

Stupid liberal ideas produce bad results.

From the article, it sounds as though most of these couples have been playing house for a while anyway, even though it doesn't prepare them for true commitment

You know... it takes two to tango. If people don't want kids maybe listening to the Catholic Church ain't such a good idea and using birth control is.
