Article: To be married is to be outnumbered

For the first time in history the percent of married households in the US is in the minority 49.7%. Unmarried couples sharing households is 5% of all households (that's 5.2 million couples), which apparently rose 14% since 2000 (that took me a second to untangle).

I don't think the statistics will make any parents or grandparents happy. It'll just reinforce their belief that their children/grandchildren are amoral liberals living in sin. Surprisingly, the comments by the conservative groups aren't that scathing and condescending. Not surprisingly, Utah has the highest percent of married households (69%).
