But this Hannibal is hardly even a rough sketch for the later Lecter. Indeed, he's virtually unrecognizable...
...many of those statistics are commonly misread. If you look at the raw data, it's clear that while Americans aren't marrying at the Ozzie and Harriet rates of the 1950s, marriage faces no dire threat today. In fact, we may have come to value marriage too much: there's good evidence that it isn't as beneficial for individuals as pro-marriage conservatives would have you believe...
