Test Relationships

AN ARGUMENT FOR COHABITATION / CASUAL SEX

P1. Testing out a relationship before having children minimizes the risk of family breakups 

P2. Cohabitation allows couples to test out a relationship before having children

C. Therefore cohabitation minimizes the risk of family breakups 


CONSERVATIVE COMMENTARY

P1 is true in a limited sense however P2 is only one form of testing a relationship which has to combat “relationship inertia” and does not necessarily minimize the risk of breakups.
