Impressive change of mores in such a short time. Which gives reason to be concerned. Should one however idealise the ‘idiocy of rural life’ as a preferable alternative to the way couples meet today in urban settings?
not at all. But I don't believe the authors of the study had a sample that could isolate rural from urban cleanly...it would be interesting to know...drug addiction and unemployment have reached such havoc on rural families, I'm not sure the family offers as much filtering value as the rural family in the 1930s.
