Despite what the doc says, it doesn’t account for civil partnerships in France (PACS). So no, 65% of children are not born out of wedlock.
Good for them. Map legend suggestion, instead of red use green, this is a positive not a negative
Probably related to the relevance of the institution of Marriage, I would guess these numbers will go hand in hand with how many marriages are there per year.
In Hungary it used to be almost 50%, but the Orbán government made child benefits conditional on marriage, so the number of marriages skyrocketed.
We are going to hell.
Irony is hard these days?
The interesting thing is the relatively low percentage of people in many countries often considered most progressive or atleast irreligious. The countries with the highest percentage are Mexico, Chile, Costa Rica and Argentina with about 80%.
Press X to doubt
Icelandics are putting wedding plans on ice
Germany WTF ? I thought it was a modern country, and they do worse than Italy
At least we are First in something, Go Iceland
Hereby I suggest to rename Iceland into Bastardland. Aye?
Portugal can into where?? 😭
Surprised it’s not higher.
Portugal succumbing to Western decadance, and should really look to its fellow Eastern European countries for inspiriation.
Portugal can into Northern Europe. /r/portugalhvafaen
I have a question : do they take into account those who had religious weddings but not civil weddings at the time of the birth of children?
Key word is human rights. In Nordics the partners enjoy the same rights married or not. In Belarus, on the contrary, there is only one person withe a full set of human rights, and he is not shy to father kids out of wedlock.
Being a bastard (piç) is very shameful thing in Turkey. Let’s crown this claim with a popular old Turkish movie scene:

Could be a called a map countries by personal freedoms and nobody would doubt it
High levels of boredom in Iceland :)))
In other news, French people SMASH.
Iceland, though, I did not expect that. Is it a cold or volcanic thing?
Iceland is probably high because it’s illegal to marry your cousin… or wait now.. [When Incest Is Best: Kissing Cousins Have More Kin | Scientific American](https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/when-incest-is-best-kissi/)
So, there is no pattern.
Yeah, Europe is not so religious.
France is wrong.

you are a bastard
no i am not a bastard
boo you are a bastard
I was suprised by Poland, because not many people are getting married here.
But there are no kids too, so it fits.
Iceland is full of bang-and-dash dudes I guess 😅
I would have guessed GB higher
100-200 years ago, all of Europe where probably the same as Turkey is today.
I am guessing.
Well that seem rather high
I thought it was my turn to repost this map this week?
