Yeah, and all those men came out worse and all the women came out better because of it!
You can love, you can fuck, you can have fun.....just dont marry! If you want kids, just go adopt!
I feel bad for young men today. Most will never have a lifetime of true love from a woman.
I'm not young and have never experienced true love from a woman. I was stupid for thinking that I had married the right one but they all pretended to be something they are not until they get the ring on their finger.
It's not only the fact that older men like me are telling the younger men to avoid marriage but they see it for themselves.
The younger men look at the divorce statistics and see how women their age act and decide that marriage isn't for them. They see for themselves that 80% of the women initiate divorces. It goes up to 90% if they are college educated.
I had the feminism BS rammed down my throat ever since the 1960s. It was non-stop. I was too stupid to think that the feminist philosophy wouldn't affect marriage but it did.
The younger men have looked at the past history of feminism and felt its sting in the educational system, employment, business and culture. They have a better view of a woman's mindset then their older brethren ever did. They want no part of it.
That's why marriage has declined and will continue to fall.
I never asked for the divorces and drank the Kool-Aid trying to repair the marriage which was wasted effort. Not only that, doing the right thing and trying to reconcile only feeds into a woman's ego thinking that they are high value and can do better.
After a few years, I realized that I'm truly free. I've never felt better and doing things that I wanted to do when I was in my twenties. I've never been in a prison with walls and iron bars. However, I think I know how a man feels when he's let out of prison.
My money, possessions and time are my own. I don't have to share them with anyone who doesn't give two Hershey squirts about me. There is finally peace in my life. Younger men see that and don't want their peace stolen.
The only things that will save marriage besides God intervening will be...
1) Repealing the 19th Amendment. That laid the foundation for women taking over everything in society. Even male judges are afraid to incur the wrath of the female electorate. Pearl Davis laid out an excellent argument for why women should not vote. Because men are subject to the draft and women aren't then only the men should have the power to decide who their representatives should be. Remember that Congress has the power to declare war and activate the draft. Men should have the power to decide who the Commander-In-Chief should be if they are drafted and have to follow his orders. It goes without saying that the divorces laws favor the women, who have been a major factor in deciding who writes those laws.
2) Abolish alimony and child support. Get rid of the financial incentive for divorce. After all, women wanted equal rights. They're strong and independent until the dinner check arrives, a tire needs changed, a spider is in the room and the walk into divorce court.
3) Get government out of the business of regulating marriage. Marriage is a contract, which is overseen by the government. Whoever has the power to regulate also has the power to destroy. The divorce laws are written to favor women. There is an incentive to destroy the marriage. If it's a contract regulated by the government then the aggrieved party in a broken contract should be compensated. Yet that doesn't happen for men, who are usually the aggrieved party.
