“For the past 40-50 years white males in our country have been so trodden upon by the feminist movement and affirmative action that I truly do not blame them for any caution or bitterness toward women. I do blame Hillary Clinton and her ilk. It has reflected badly upon the average American woman and tragically it has misled and ruined the ignorant among women who were not taught to think and evaluated cause and effect for themselves.”

I’m a middle-aged married woman (26 years) and I can really understand the apprehensiveness some younger men have towards the institution of marriage.
Just one example, during a bitter divorce, sometimes there are false allegations of abuse, etc. (and the woman is rarely if ever questioned).
It just seems that over the years, women have been favored, to the point where it can be unfair.
That being said, I believe in marriage; I believe it is a sacrament. It’s not always an easy road, but it is comforting to have a lifelong partner with you on that road.
I wholeheartedly agree with you. My husband and I did not meet until later in life. Both had failed marriages to people who did not fulfill the covenant of marriage as it should have been. This marriage is on that covenant footing. Like everybody’s, good and bad, but such a gift. Almost 10 yrs now :)
And we had a male aquaintance thru work who was going thru one on “those” divorces. Couple of children, he was trying to save the marriage, as they were arguing she fell backward over a box. (His things she packed) God, in His mercy, provided a witness, neighbor trying to assist the moving. Her lawyer got pictures of a gash or bruise on the woman’s face and alleged abuse. The witness saved the guy. You know in this day and age he would have been in jail.
I dont condone family violence either, it did happen to me in the distant past, but that pendulem has swung too far.
