Do you think it is acceptable that there should not be any relationship between a man and a woman unless they got married?
No, I think it's perfectly valid that people- including same-sex couples- have relations out of marriage. Of course some people end up regretting being promiscuous but then a lot more people in the old days or in more conservative parts of the world regret loveless too-early marriages or enforced celibacy.
I don't think it's a good idea for people to just go round having children outside stable relationships, for a "father" to desert the family, etc. But to live in Queen Victoria's age or sharia law is just as bad, it's not as if life was a barrel of laughs for Arnold Bennett's characters in the "good" old days.
