Be a Man. Get Married.
Published on May 9, 2016
Is bachelor life really the good life? Playing the field, traveling the world, and focusing on career sounds better than tying the knot. But is it possible that married men have more sex and make more money than their single counterparts? Brad Wilcox, sociologist at the University of Virginia, explains.

Just read Charles Murray. In the 1950’s upper-class and lower class whites were married at the same rates
in the 2000’s, after the so-called sexual revolution, he looked again at upper classes and found they had advanced economically, while lower class whites had fallen behind. The main difference? Marriage rates. For all the elitist BS and feminism, upper class whites in practice rejected the hippy nostrums, and were married far more and had stable families. Lower class whites had much higher rates of divorce, non-marriage, single-motherhood, and therefore, much higher rates of poverty and drug addiction.
It’s a needed message, particularly, but by no means exclusively, in the black community. But it is also true that in the age of feminism and female-dominated family courts, it’s a risky proposition for a man. You better trust that woman with your life — literally!!!
Ping!
Well Caitlin Jenner was a man of yesterday. /s
That is an insidiously genius idea, which is why it’ll probably never work.
And I have asked the latest gf to marry me and she has said no.
I am in the market for a motorcycle......
0% authority.
Pass.
“OK, first question: It has to be with a woman? ;-)”
People more enlightened than us would call that hateful hetero-imperialist homophobic discrimination ;-)

The current legal system incentivizes women to be jerks in a divorce. What you incentivize, you get more of.
Yeah. I’ve always viewed these exhortations to get married as a plot on the part of married men to spread the misery...

What Would Tyrion Lannister Do?

I always thought he looked “pretty”. He seemed to wear makeup even in the 70’s.
Fall in love with a whore and escape from prison and strangle her in his father’s chamber?
We are not men!

Prager ought to know. He’s done it enough times. (I happen to love his current wife though)
Well, maybe not the illegal things done in Westeros! But the fun lifestyle part, LOL.
Make more money than their single counterparts? It took me almost 20 years to recover from a betrayal and financial decisions that my first wife made. It affected my future and will affect me through retirement. The courts are on the side of the woman, even if she is unfaithful and embezzles money. Marriage today is not made in any way to benefit the man, those days are over. Most women today look to men as a free ride or merely someone to use as sperm donors.

Wow. This has been incredibly true from what I have personally seen.
I’d rather get AIDS and be alone than live my remaining good years as a slave to some bloodsucker (like many of my divorced friends).
Marriage under the current legal system is for SUCKERS
