Too Risky to Wed in Your 20s? Not If You Avoid Cohabiting First
- version_five 5y agoThe obvious spurious factor here is that people who marry without cohabitating could be culturally more likely to stay in a bad marriage - for example religious people who don't believe in sex before marriage. Can't read the article so maybe this is addressed.
- khedoros1 5y agoI only saw it mentioned in one place, near the end: > We don’t know precisely why young women who marry directly in their 20s without cohabiting have comparatively low divorce rates. Is it less experience breaking up, fewer previous partners for comparison, a greater sense that marriage is a different relationship status, or the fact that such women are disproportionately religious[1]? It’s not clear.
