Is the social cost of sex among people who are "going steady" greater than the social cost of driving automobiles? I would be surprised if that were so. I doubt that one can make a hard rule against sex outside of marriage on that basis.

Would marriage be better? Yes. On the other hand, if there were an incentive to get married based on lust, wouldn't the chances of rushing into ill- informed commitments increase?
