We are now not supposed to judge people as fully-fledged human beings, which is the natural outcome of a hedonistic society in which the only thing that matters is sex.
The way we used to date is that you didn’t take your clothes off until you were married. When that was the case, you had to fully appreciate the person sitting across the table from you as a fully-fledged human being with thoughts, values, and ideas. You only got to sex after marriage. Now, you get to the sex first and everything else is lost by the wayside. Some people are making the argument that marriage is bad because women are initiating most divorces due to no-fault divorce, which means it’s risky for men to get married.
My answer to that is: Not if you marry the right woman. The way you know you’re marrying the right woman is if you date in the right way. This is why it’s very important when you are dating to avoid what has become current: jumping in bed with each other and then seeing how it goes from there. Instead, it should be precisely as it was in terms of actually appreciating the other human being as a potential life partner.
