        The sexual revolution of the late 1960s led to a change in sexual discourse and a fundamental change in sexual attitudes, ethics and behavior in many western countries. One of the most important consequences has been the expansion of premarital sexual relations in these countries. This pattern of premarital sexual relations gradually spread to other parts of the world. This transformation demythologized sexual relations and, in addition to increasing the age of marriage, created the grounds for the emergence of cohabitation. Islamic Iran has not been spared from these changes and nearly in the two decades, there have been whispers of the prevalence of this marriage model in Iran that result provoked researches with qualitative method in general.

        The role of regional and spatial inequalities, especially the role of inequalities in the border areas of the country, has been given less attention in the issue of migration. Although Iran's border areas have strategic importance from economic, social, and political aspects, and Ignoring paying less attention to these areas can have irreparable consequences in various sectors. This research aims to investigate the situation of Iran's border regions in terms of spatial inequalities and what effect these inequalities have on migration from these regions. In order to measure the spatial inequality among the border counties, the data of the general population and housing census of 2016 and other related findings have been used. Factor analysis has been used to weight and combine indicators and create spatial inequality. Arc Pro software was used for zoning and stratification of counties based on the dimensions of inequality and migration, and GWR statistical method was used to analyze the relationship between inequality and migration. The results show that inequality is higher in the eastern and southeastern counties compared to other places. Also, 66% of Iran's border counties have a negative migration balance. The geographically weighted regression model shows that 67% of the changes in the net migration variable are explained by independent variables, and based on the average value presented, the population structure factor and the economic factor have the greatest effect on the net migration in border counties. Also, the effectiveness of factors for migration is different in different regions of the country. Manuscript profile
