>>Hate to say it but with a lot of the young men I’ve met recently I don’t think all the blame can be laid on the women. Maybe it’s just that men aren’t men anymore.
Yep. It starts with their “single” mom who raises them to be a girl and that is reinforced by a school system that punishes them for being boys. Then, they are placed in an “everyone wins” soccer league in a sadly laughable attempt to satisfy their urge to compete. When they become interested in girls, the girls are already dressing like 1970’s hookers and that has to be intimidating for a boy who is just discovering his sexuality.
High school and college are a blur of video games.
When they should be settling down to marry, they are faced with a selection of women who are already “single” moms. Or they can find some ball-busting “professional” woman.
And they know that if they do not find the magic formula to making this woman absolutely happy all the time, they will find themselves divorced and indentured to their ex (if she is the mother of their child). Because, as we all know from Oprah, a woman has to be giddy with happiness at all times or she needs to put the husband “out of the picture” and go find herself.
I’ve been married to the same woman for 30 years and if I found myself single, I would definitely not seek any long-term relationship with an American woman today. I can’t blame the younger men to avoiding marriage.
Truer words have yet to be spoken. All is happy-happy, joy-joy in Oprah land - OR ELSE!

I've been married for 26 1/2 years to the same woman. I firmly believe she was made just for me. I cannot imagine any of these "modern-day" women ever putting up with a husband like me, being a workaholic who saves his money.
If anything were to happen to my wife, I cannot imagine myself with any other woman. I just can't. I've seen to many of them the same age as my wife and they're all seriously screwed up in the head. Thankfully I married a good, Conservative Woman who appreciates our traditional marriage. She quit her full time job in 1999 when our oldest son was 3 years old and our youngest son was 1 year old to become in her words "a full time mom." Financially her quitting hurt for awhile but we managed our expenses well and lived responsibly.
She is completely unlike any other woman around her age. They all have a sense of entitlement to work their husbands to death in order to have the latest and greatest of everything (houses, cars, phones, clothes...) Mine wants me to stop working so hard and enjoy life. How could I ever give up a woman like that?!
