Sex would happen in marriage, and the child that is born would be born into a family, where both parties had accepted the responsibility of having a child beforehand, no one would have to face such dilemmas.
The normalization of out-of wedlock relations have resulted in these things. They made life for both sexes much more complex than it was before.
No, actually, "the old world" didn't work quite so nicely. Women were little more than property to their husbands, whether he was an abusive asshole or not. That isn't exactly the situation I'd want to be in.
Also, there was sex before marriage, and before the twentieth century, it was common for men and women to live together, have sex with each other and sometimes even have children together long before they got married or had anyone officiate a marriage. Early in the 1900's, if women got pregnant out of wedlock, she simply went to stay with family out of state and gave the baby up for adoption.... whether she liked it or not. Again, not so great if you ask me.
Take off those rose tinted glasses, buddy.
