Unmarried mothers doesn't mean un-wanted pregnancies dummy.Here are some facts:
The proportion of births to unmarried women has increased dramatically in recent decades, rising from 5.3 percent in 1960 to 32.2 percent in 1995. After some stability in the mid-1990s, there was a gradual rise from 1997 through 2007, though the rate appears to have stabilized again, at 40.8 percent in 2010 (preliminary estimate).
Children born to unmarried mothers are more likely to grow up in a single-parent household, experience instability in living arrangements, live in poverty, and have socio-emotional problems.

When people hear the word "unwed mother" they panic and assume the father is absent, the mother is on food stamps, welfare, and the child will have no future.
Here is another excerpt:
"An increasing proportion of unmarried births occur to cohabiting parents. Although children born to cohabiting parents are more likely to see their parents eventually marry than are those born to non-coresidential parents, nevertheless children born to cohabiting parents experience higher levels of socioeconomic disadvantage and fare worse across a range of behavioral and emotional outcomes than those born to married parents."

Very true, In those situations one must strike while the iron is hot. However, alcohol consumption has not gone up since the 60's. Actually, I think alcohol consumption is declining.

Don't you think it is responsible to marry a girl after getting her pregnant? Are you saying is that men used to DO the RESPONSIBLE thing and now men DO NOT do the responsible thing? Why the change?

I saw those forced marriages in the 60's. A loveless marriage is still a loveless marriage.

Loveless, how can you make a baby without love? The initial attraction wears off in most all marriages. Finances, children, commitment and mutual respect is what holds most marriages together in the long run. Love is way down on the list. To quote a famous song: "What's Love Got to Do With It?"

How do you make a baby without love? You said it yourself....what's love got to do with it?
The initial attraction is lust not love. And no......love does not wear out as your marriage goes on longer

The social pressure is off them TO marry the girl. And truthfully why lock people into a unhappy, unhealthy marriage to appease.........others and social pressure?
The other thing that has changed is entitlements. Welfare, foodstamps, wick all that crap... Why marry when you can get entitlements.
