Finding Mr. Right

Finding Mr. Right is a support show for women especially (but men who want to find Ms. Right are also welcomed) - women who want to find Mr. Right and get married.  Today's culture seems to support a lifestyle where the man and woman live together without being married.    Recently, on Judge Judy, a woman found out in court the ramifications of what just living together with her boyfriend really meant.    Has our current acceptance of couples living together and having children  without being married strengthened our community?   How did we do it before we accepted living together without marriage?
