* Lots of short-term, usually unbalanced, relationships between poorly-matched people.

Right. I forgot that the only 'real' way to get into a lasting relationship is to delve deep into our past and brush the dust off of the practice of arranged marriages. Maybe we should go back to the 'good ole days' where if a girl got pregnant in highschool we stoned her to death, or at least made it so that the guy was a hero and she would spend the rest of her life as a pariah...

[ note: I say this from a USA-centric perspective, not hating on cultures that still practice this in a respectful manner. By 'this,' I mean 'arranged marriage,' not 'stoning to death.' ]

Arranged marriage and misogyny vs. meaningless casual sex.

False dichotomy much?
