Good old fashioned celibacy before marriage seems to have been forgotten. Evolutionists must be right: we are becoming more like animals all the time! I wonder if people realize that there is more to life than copulation. Having been celibate for 27 years so far, I can testify that it won't kill you. In fact, I I don't even think about it all the time! (What? Is there something wrong with me?) (My girlfriend is considering taking the plunge at this moment.) -- Stuart D.
