I got this religious studies homework (yes, it's compulsory), it's to create a short questionnaire.
Putting things short, I need you guys to answer my questionnaire.
I need at least two people from each of the below age groups:
-15-20's
-20-50's
-50+'s
to answer. As many people as possible would be nice so that I have a range of answers.
You can PM your answers to me if you don't want it public.

Attitudes about Marriage.
1. Even though marriage doesn’t work out for some people, do you think it’s still the best kind of relationship?
2. Do you think that too many people nowadays drift into marriage without giving it enough thought?
3. Do you think that marriage is just a piece of paper and there isn’t much point in marriage? Is it ok for a couple to cohabit if they have no intention to marry?
4. Do you think it’s acceptable for a couple to have sex outside of marriage?
5. Expanding on Q4, do you think it is acceptable for a couple to have a child outside of marriage?

2. Do you think that too many people nowadays drift into marriage without giving it enough thought? Damn right
3. Do you think that marriage is just a piece of paper and there isn’t much point in marriage? Is it ok for a couple to cohabit if they have no intention to marry? All depends on religious beliefs and views, I know many a people that are not in the least bit religious but deemed in necessary to get married in a normal church
4. Do you think it’s acceptable for a couple to have sex outside of marriage? I think it's sweet if you can wait, bit in this day and age it doesn't work
5. Expanding on Q4, do you think it is acceptable for a couple to have a child outside of marriage? It happens, if you feel you are ready for a child but haven't yet married, then why not

Attitudes about Marriage.
1. Even though marriage doesn’t work out for some people, do you think it’s still the best kind of relationship?
If you are married it means that you see a future with each other. Marriage to me is the ultimate relationship between each other, because it's a promise to be with each other support each other in both good and bad times.
2. Do you think that too many people nowadays drift into marriage without giving it enough thought?
Not at all, I think more people are simply living together as partners rather than getting married. But yes there are also those who are disillusioned with love stories and I think that women are mostly affected by that.
3. Do you think that marriage is just a piece of paper and there isn’t much point in marriage? Is it ok for a couple to cohabit if they have no intention to marry?
No I don't, marriage isn't about the paper. Yes the paper gives you validity within the law, but it's also a state of mind. If a couple want to live together with no intention to marry then I find it strange (unless they are just room-mates). I'd never live with someone unless there was a slight chance for a permanent future. In which-case, I'd get married.
4. Do you think it’s acceptable for a couple to have sex outside of marriage?
To be honest... I personally would never have sex with a girl unless I thought that there could be a chance for a future. I wouldn't want to ruin her life just for the sake of an hour of fun.
5. Expanding on Q4, do you think it is acceptable for a couple to have a child outside of marriage?
No. A child needs to brought up in a family environment. Why have a child and not be married? I don't understand. Seems like the reasoning of a person with commitment issues. Do you want to have a child with someone who cannot commit?

1. Even though marriage doesn’t work out for some people, do you think it’s still the best kind of relationship? Most definatly, it shows that there is a strong bond in the relationship to feel the need to get married.
2. Do you think that too many people nowadays drift into marriage without giving it enough thought? Yes, Many people think its a competition to show it off that there married and have the ring to prove it.
3. Do you think that marriage is just a piece of paper and there isn’t much point in marriage? Is it ok for a couple to cohabit if they have no intention to marry? I think marrige runs deeper than a piece of paper, it shows that the love is really there.
4. Do you think it’s acceptable for a couple to have sex outside of marriage? Yeah why not, as long as they really care about each other!
5. Expanding on Q4, do you think it is acceptable for a couple to have a child outside of marriage? Yep, happened to me, was planned sort of, but i loved my gf and love my daughter even more now shes here. Just me and the gf are not together anymore!

1. Yes, there should be a formal bond between people, to express the importance your spouse has in your life.
2. Agreed, hasty decisions prove you wrong.
3. No, marriage is not just paperwork. Why not bow to live the rest of your life with someone that completes you so much?
4. Pre-marital sex can easily be abused by men, so, although i know that people have the right to seek for good sexual concordance, people should always keep in mind it is a great responsibility to ask for, from a woman. So i guess i'll say yes, but it's heavily case dependent.
5. No. A child has the right to be borne into a proper family.

Attitudes about Marriage.
1. Even though marriage doesn’t work out for some people, do you think it’s still the best kind of relationship? Yes, its a companion which is there for you till the end of your life. A person you can talk to about anything. A soulmate which can answer and share diffrent questions and thoughts. Your married partner is a freind, lover, helper.
2. Do you think that too many people nowadays drift into marriage without giving it enough thought? Yes. People to young are getting married and thinking of the future and consequences. Sometimes it happens so quick, they hardly no there partner. Aranged marriages are the worse. Its unfair and isnt right to force young people to wed with out even knowing eachother. Its sick.
3. Do you think that marriage is just a piece of paper and there isn’t much point in marriage? Is it ok for a couple to cohabit if they have no intention to marry?
Its not a peace of paper its a life long commitment! All the reasons are mentioned in my first answer
4. Do you think it’s acceptable for a couple to have sex outside of marriage? If there together but not married its ok. But if your talking about affairs no. You should only love one person and thats the person you married. Not go and sleep with other people whilst you are together. It is betrayal and humiliating.
5. Expanding on Q4, do you think it is acceptable for a couple to have a child outside of marriage? Yes and no. If there together and arnt married and they love eachother, set out there future its fine. Its also fine if the person has a child from a previous marriage to get together with some one else. However if a man has an affair and secretly has a child that is wrong.

i'm sure people give it lotts of thought

marrage is more than a piece of paper its a commitment
4. Do you think it’s acceptable for a couple to have sex outside of marriage?
why not?
5. Expanding on Q4, do you think it is acceptable for a couple to have a child outside of marriage?
yes, and no. you make a commitment to stay with each other and in my opinion you are less likely to split up with someone your married to which can be very hard on a child
