    These studies are often skewed because they often compare married people to single people who have been divorced (rather than never married single people), the people who are married are still married rather than single/divorced because they have exceptionally happy marriages whereas many of the single people are single because they've gotten out of very unhappy relationships, and for other reasons as well. Even if there is a correlation between marriage and happiness, one does not directly require the other. I'm for marriage if it makes other people happy but one thing I don't understand is this 'collectivist' attitude that people are morally obligated to get married and have children, for the sake of the community I guess. The fact is that people get married for their own selfish reasons. I also think that marriage as a legal institution should be abolished.

    I'm not saying that men aren't getting any. I'm saying that most men really don't care about a woman's sexual morals. They might admire a woman who isn't giving it up, as long as that woman isn't HIS woman.

    Here's a novel idea... how about the MAN saying no? Women aren't increasing the birth rate by themselves.

    Well, I would even want my woman to have morals. I think a lot of guys do. That's why we dont all date prostitutes
