SHOCKER!! Men and Women have Different Views on Marriage!!
Psychology Today ^ | 6/4/2014 | Vikki Stark

Do you remember what it was like when you were twelve? If you’re female and were like many girls, your friends were everything to you. You talked on the phone for hours, chatting passionately about who sat next to whom in the lunchroom, whether you liked Joanne’s new haircut, or making detailed plans about who to invite to your birthday party. You likely also

spent a bunch of time planning your life – what your wedding would be like, what kind of dress you would wear, what kind of house you wanted, how many kids you were going to have (two boys and two girls) and what their names would be. Your future life as a mother and a wife was the stuff of dreams.

The definition of a wedding ring is?

A viscious circle.

There are three rings associated with marriage: the engagement ring, the wedding ring, and the suffering.

I don't understand why “feminists” are on the forefront of destroying marriage and promoting gay sex. Women tend to be beneficiaries of marriage. The “patriarchy” fantasy was designed by the leftists to get the intelligentsia to hate moral behavior.

They probably spent big bucks from a federal grant to produce these results.

Ironically, the liberal feminazi agenda has created a world where women are now becoming the breadwinners and the men are becoming the secondary income.

And the women are RESENTING it!!

Can’t have your cake and eat it too!

When a woman breaks up or gets a divorce, she calls all her female friends and they commiserate together and talk all about. They are very detail-oriented when it comes to discussing relationships.

Guys? Well, as Bill Engvall put it.....

I was at the gym the other day working out with my buddy. My buddy Joey. And he goes “hey, man, I’m getting a divorce.” I said “Wow, that sucks. Can you spot me?”

That was our whole conversation! So then I go home to my wife, and I say “Hey, Joey is getting a divorce.”

She goes “Oh, my God! What happened?”

“I dunno.”

“What do you mean you don’t know? Is she cheating on him, is he cheating on her?” “

Again, I’m not holding anything back here, I don’t know!”

She goes “Bill, someone tells you they’re getting a divorce and you don’t ask any questions?”

And I go “Well, that’s because he didn’t ask me a question! He didn’t say ‘hey Bill, what do you think about me getting a divorce?’, he said, ‘I’m getting a divorce’, which said to me, ‘I require no further input on your part.’”

If he had said ‘What do you think about me getting a divorce?’, I’d have said, ‘Well, you’re gonna be dating again, so you should work on your abs’.

What’s the difference between a dead skunk in the road and a dead divorce attorney in the road?

There are skid marks in front of the skunk

(Before ABS, of course)

Yes me and my wife have had several conversations like that.

She’s always asking me questions about my family and what’s going on with them....and when I say, “I dunno”, she gets apoplectic, she can’t fathom the fact that I am not obsessed with everything my family does.

My FIL used to tell that one all the time much to the chagrin of his wife and daughters.

When my daughter was 4 years old she said “Daddy, will you play with my dinosaurs with me?”

“Sure! Sounds like fun. How about the dinosaurs have a war?” I suggested.

“No Daddy, the dinosaurs are going to have a wedding!”

I swear, weddings are hardwired in the female DNA.
