Yep. Marriage is sooooo old-fashioned. So is having children -- they're just expensive nuisances in an advanced society. Or course, you can't own pets either; owning animals is as cruel as eating them is.

Asimov had a science fiction story about this. Forty years or more ago he knew the direction the liberal crowd was going.
