NPR recently did a piece about how, for some people, “sex without a condom is the new engagement ring.” Apparently, “(Condomless sex) shows trust, commitment, and the prospect of a shared future; an engagement more practical than spending money on a piece of jewelry for a marriage that might not pass the test of time.”
To me it sounds like a bunch of cheap bastards. Brunks and Adam should take back their rings:

“Apparently, “(Condomless sex) shows trust, commitment, and the prospect of a shared future”"
I would have to disagree with ^. I think it is more of a result of tequila shots and frat rock at the Border.

Your just pissed because you shelled out for a ring

I would argue that butt sex is the new engagement ring

Mac,
Do you have any research to back that up or is it just a personal axiom?
