Soon Only Gays Will Want to Marry

Marriage is socialism among two people.
Barbara Ehrenreich, author

More and more heterosexual men and women are opting not to get married. In Britain it is predicted that within 25 years more couples will opt to live together instead of getting married, according to government statistics published last week.

The projections are based on the recent steep fall in marriage rates for people aged under 30. As the older generation dies, a new generation of people who prefer living together to marriage will take their place.

Britain's Office for National Statistics predicted predicts never-married people will outnumber married people by about 650,000 by 2031 when the number of Britons aged 16 years or older will hit 48 million.
