we are walking in the same direction MissMi. Subsidize could be the neutral word here... Yes, Government can subsidize, like the ones being cited by MissT in UK. But including it as a Law of the Country to justify spending of the Government on this concern is a another story. If a Couple wants to have a healthy s*x life to preserve their Love for each other... then so be it. And you don't need any Government assurance or insurance to do this, right? So why depend on the Government just to make sure there would be no unwanted child to be born? Responsible Parenthood is the one that should be promoted. And with all due respect MissMi... moral issues are basically long term until Culture adopts to the changes of time.
