Is premarital sex accepted in the UK?

[Anonymous]

Here in Los Angeles cohabitation and premarital sex is taboo but what’s the deal around the world? I know Vegas is much more progressive than LA.

It is becoming more prevalent in UK. In fact, with marriage slowly being less relevant, it is becoming the norm.

It is the same with one parent families, which are usually mother and child rather than father and child.

Just thought. I am not having "premarital" sex with my partner. Simply because I don't intend to marry!!

And church is ok with that? The church runs my country like the government and that would never be tolerated in the USA

[Jessica405]

Like marriage, the church has diminishing influence. In fact, religious institutions have virtually no legal say in premarital relationships.

[Asker]

Quite the opposite here

[Asker]

Americans are getting more religious

[Jessica405]

That is a personal choice. Perhaps people in UK are less influenced by religion.

[Asker]
