In this paper, hypotheses regarding the relationship between enforced marriage (as an alternative to unwed motherhood and abortion) and three independent variables: church affiliation, degree of urbanization and level of formal education are tested with statistical data from the Netherlands pertaining to the periods 1959-1961 and 1969-1971. Explanation of the findings is attempted in terms of the traditional stance of various religious groups with regard to premarital intercourse. Differences between the first and the second time period examined are attributed to the wave of sexual permissiveness in the Netherlands during the last decade
