Sexual relations, of course, have existed, exist, and will exist. However, this is in no way connected with the indispensability of the existence of the family.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I don't know that it exists, the perfect family. It's always complicated.
The family exists in order to allow women to have children and to have the protection of a male who takes care of them.
The social relations which are the basis of the reproduction of the species are founded upon the continuous union of parents in marriage.
Marriage and the creation of families has been an integral part of our society since its creation; it should not be defined without the kind of involvement by the people which a constitutional process would require.
Although the detail of our sexual energies and their objects and objectives vastly vary, the existence of our sexuality itself is an undeniable truth.
If traditional marriage is not the law of the land, the institution of the family will cease to exist.
Any relations in a social order will endure, if there is infused into them some of that spirit of human sympathy which qualifies life for immortality.
Family or love or romance, whatever it is, is not restricted to perfect people. If it were, it wouldn't exist. All of that comes out in my work in some way.
Any nation that refuses to hold intercourse with other nations must expect to be excluded from this family.
The institution of marriage, if you look at it over many centuries, has come and gone.
