I saw this headline at Newsalert from a CNS News article and went over to read it:
(CNSNews.com) – Seventy percent of American males between the ages of 20 and 34 are not married, and many live in a state of “perpetual adolescence” with ominous consequences for the nation’s future, says Janice Shaw Crouse, author of “Marriage Matters.”
“Far too many young men have failed to make a normal progression into adult roles of responsibility and self-sufficiency, roles generally associated with marriage and fatherhood,” Crouse, the former executive director of the Beverly LaHaye Institute, wrote in a recent Washington Times oped.
The high percentage of bachelors means bleak prospects for millions of young women who dream about a wedding day that may never come. “It’s very, very depressing,” Crouse told CNSNews.com.
It seems that Crouse and her crowd are watching too many Say Yes to the Dress episodes. So what matters is that women’s dreams are shattered? What about the bleak prospects for millions of men across the country who get very little legal or psychological protection from marriage? Now that’s what’s very, very depressing. Change that and maybe more men will be interested.
1) Why buy the cow when the milk is free?
2) Why hang around and take abusive/accusing feminist attitudes for the long haul?
It’s known as MGTOW (Men Going Their Own Way)
Lots of videos on YouTube about it.
Why should the man buy the cow if he gets the milk for free?
The War Against Women marches on, while the guys stay in the basement.
Why should they when HO’s like that tramp on “Girls” (there are PLENTY of other examples, BTW) gives it all up for nothing?
My advice to a young woman is “if you don’t respect yourself, how can you expect a man to respect you?”
A woman’s right to be married should be enforced by Executive Action.
Why get married when the legal system has made getting married and having children a terrible gamble for men?
A man is probably better off buying a small house and paying a surrogate if he wants to have a child.
Destroying the family is central to destroying American society. The Left policies encouraging single-motherhood & welfare have destroyed the black family and it has spread into the white portion of society.
Nice work, feminists.
Why would you? You have a nation of slutty women ready to go. Where previous generations grew up by 25, it’s now 35...if ever.
They’ve seen older men get destroyed by women and the legal system. It has nothing to do with perpetual adolescence.
We are a nation designed to flourish as families with religious morals
We here in FR are dinosaurs, apparently
We still believe in and argue politics and religion while America burnt
We'll face God .... soon enough because ain't none of us kids any more.
I’m in this age group and play the field. All I know is it’s game over when I;m hitched. My married buds are “dude, I should have had her sign the post nup..”
It’s a reflection of the poor economy and individuals perception of future prospects.
It isn't about what you want. It's about the child. A kid needs a mother and a father.
Kids are expensive and I can barely support myself.
Why get married?
Oh wait. I just figured out that there is not going to be anyone to take care of me in my old age if I don't have a family. Plus I'm over 30 and not getting any younger. And Mom and Dad are not going live much longer and I'm going to need my own place.. Yikes! Better find a girl, quick.
“1) Why buy the cow when the milk is free?”
My first thought also. I have two single nephews who are the walking definition of ‘perpetual adolescence’.
When looking at some property the realtor was sort of shocked that my wife and I were “actually married.” Lots of couples are buying homes without marrying.
They would rather escape into Apple World than marry 70% of the women these days, and who can blame them? Our family circle has three of five young men who fall in this age group and have never married, so the statistics are accurate in our case.
Added to that, traditional marriage, the corner stone of Western Civ. has been marginalized and replaced with 'everything goes.'
The communists run everything else and everything into the ground.
The political system is unable to rectify any of these issues.
