Love and Marriage

The poll in AARP:

Is it a good idea for couples to live together before getting married?
Age group
18-49 50-plus
Good idea
75% 57%
Bad idea
23% 40%

Why do you think divorce is so common today?
Marriage isn't taken as seriously as it used to be.
47% 43%
Divorce is more acceptable today?
28% 23%
Easier to get a divorce today
19% 27%
Don't know
5% 6%
Would you pick your current spouse again?
Yes
95% 91%
No
3% 7%

Don't know what this all means, but I saw it and thought it would relate to my marriage question topics.

I assume the response percents relate to male then female. So 3/4 of the guys think living together before marriage is a good idea. Pretty scattered response as to why divorce is more common today - but I did notice that SC's weren't mentioned as a reason.
