No, the social fact that is wasn’t done near as often. You know what I meant. But again, a clever diversion.

One thing to be mentioned is that people get married much later in their lives now than they used to. When you’re getting married at 16, 17, or 18 there’s not a lot of time for premarital sex. If you’re waiting until you’re done with grad school and settled into a career to get hitched, there’s a lot more time for fooling around.

I believe evangelical couples still tend to get married younger. (can’t find the stat, but I’ve read it.)
