51% of our young people favor open marriages. Lay with your neighbor's spouse.
Every day is new news about what you libs are doing. Now you have created an approval of open marriages. Every day is something. Sickening. Soon you will renounce the bible. To hell with Judeo Christian USA. To hell with the bedrock of our society.
Query: Is an open marriage a marriage? I say not. An open marriage is a not-marriage. Let us have their kids define it.
Jesus.
@averagejoe1 saidI saw this study. The causes are not a lib thing. Our culture just went through a generation of divorce. More than half of marriages ended, sometimes when their kids were extremely impressionable teenagers. Now those kids are grown up and they don't want marriage. Not a lib thing. Among the important findings, more divorces happened in red states. More divorces happened in conservative households. Get over yourself with the lib thing.

The past 50 years showed our current youngsters that society views divorce as a legal tax relationship, not a life long partnership. Not a lib thing.

And I reformulate your thesis:
"extra-marital sex should be punished." Did I get you right?
@wildgrass saidDivorces? Sorry to disagree, it is an offshoot of the Sexual Revolution. Who started the Sexual Revolution?

@ponderable saidI didn't read that, and it is probably a bit dated? I am talking about today. Extramarital sex, affairs, doing it in the road, etc. Hawthorne prob didnt zero in on that, and I don't care about this author who wrote stuff.

As to punishing it, you would have to define punish. And of course, tell us how the chiuldren of these people can punish their parents, which they should be allowed to do, since they suffer the worst consequences. Man, you libs are cool with any aberrance.

@averagejoe1 saidHow about you take the truly conservative stance and get government out of personal lives. Government should never poke its nose into our sex lives. Government should not be involved in deciding our health care choices unless that choice damages others ie smoking in public places, not wearing a mask and social distancing in public places during a pandemic. You all seem to want the U.S. to be a Christian theocracy.

@phranny saidI agree with all you have said, I do not understand your last sentence. Some people are not christians, your comment is baseless. If you refer to my saying 'bible' up above, it is a guidebook for millions of people, I use it as an example. There is also an atheist bible, here is a picture of it. Millions rely on it.

Try again. Why so argumentative? You all get so emotional.

@averagejoe1 saidThe crisis of divorce was not caused by the sexual revolution. I won't lecture you. You can look this up.
Divorces? Sorry to disagree, it is an offshoot of the Sexual Revolution. Who started the Sexual Revolution?
But extremely high divorce rates does require a reevaluation of what marriage means. Whatever works to reverse the divorce trend.
Instead of laying scurrilous blame on the libs for everything, how about identifying a solution?
@wildgrass said'Was Not?????' I aint talking about what used to be. You libs always look back at stuff. I am writing about families that, In The Future, will, in my opinion, be negatively affected when a child walks into a bedroom scenario, where lies a guy who lives next door.

Jesus. You fellers cannot stay on an issue, it is impossible. At least we do not have to suffer Suzianne Quips.

@averagejoe1 saidKids are negatively affected walking into ANY bedroom scenario. That's what locks are for.

Past, present, future, whatever. I'd rather have marriage than divorce. Hands down. Lesbians, fine. if they're good parents. Whatever it takes to get us to more kids with intact households, 2 parents, and fewer divorces.
I'm willing to entertain ideas on solutions. More problems and pearl clutching isn't debate. It's a free country in the end.
