Marriage is foundational to civilization. Promiscuity is corrosive to marriage. What more needs to be said.
Discussion
Life doesnât have to be complicatedđ. Facts!
Whatâs your argument for why that is?
There are lots, but the simplest one is that children come from marriage, and statistically having a father and a mother is clearly the best outcome for kids. Unmarried couples are far less likely to stay together. Patterns of promiscuity pre-marriage, plus a culture that doesn't value faithfulness (i.e., porn, no-fault divorce, etc) surrounding a marriage make it harder to stay together long term. Divorce teaches children to fear commitment, perpetuating the problem.

Have a couple of kids and youâll realize that marriage is very important and IMO necessary. I canât imagine raising kids on your own (much respect to all that do).
Now not wanting children I donât understand. As a species, to survive we need children. To me itâs the meaning of life itself, survival at its core.
