I found this to be quiet a tepid piece of bloviating and hand waving.

I was very excited to discover Nautilus at my local bookstore, and bought what turned out to be the first edition. In the end, it was a lot of fluff. They've since continued to churn out articles with fascinating topics and disappointing content.
It's a buzzfeed with pompous writing.
I'm happy that other people are noticing. I saw at least 8 Nautilus articles make it to the front page, all the same kind of terrible.
Does anyone believe this? This seems like justification for why we should be able to have all of the sex, with none of the consequences. This article is presented as a cause and effect, but the statistics only give us a single data point. Basically it provided some data (which isn't even published) and gave the authors feel-good opinion. Utter garbage
TLDR article summary: "Having sex for a while then living together is something you should definitely consider doing before getting married with someone." Not following this advice is a recipe for disaster IMHO
A person who will cheat on their spouse will cheat you in business.
The article is not about cheating. It's about how marriages get started.
