A few days ago there was a thread about women having difficulty in finding marriageable men. And it generated a lot of comments. Well here is a take on the same subject but with another point of view. Enjoy.

A few years back there was a popular joke about why MEN don’t get married- “Just find a woman you hate and give her your house”

That’s the reason- women and divorce courts made it so unfair to men

Now women are complaining?

tough

When God’s design is mocked, ridiculed, and even His people scoff at it, that society doesn’t have much time left.

Works for me! I want nothing to do with them. The good women are taken and the leftovers are drunks, drug addicts, suffer from narcissistic Facebook personality disorder or are living on someone’s couch and flaking on commitments.

I do not know the women that have made the decision to forgo marriage but I will predict a long, lonely and difficult life for most of them.

Life is simply easier when there are two to carry the burden or share the joys over the long journey we call life.

> “I think a lot of us just don’t think marriage is that important because it doesn’t offer the security it once did,” Norah, 27, told Mic. “It’s not as necessary anymore because I can work. I can support myself.”

Oh so now you admit you were just using us all along, eh?

I think there is something to this nowadays.

In my office there are several attractive unmarried women in their mid-20’s with absolutely no desire for marriage. None of them are religious or conservative in the slightest, but they’re not mannish-feminist types either. Nearest I can tell, they just want to have fun in life and don’t seem interested in the next five years...

I think it is the fact that we live in a shrinking economy.

There aren’t opportunities for men to afford marriage.

The difference between an expanding economy and a shrinking one is the difference between choosing your own seat and musical chairs....

If a guy can hook up regularly with a girl why commit to marriage.

Aging is relentless. If you don’t marry well within a scant 10 year window (which really isn’t long), options and benefits dwindle fast.

Compared to their grandparents' generation, millennial women are significantly more likely to have a bachelor's degree and be a part of the labor force.

This is quite true and quite telling.

One of the reasons that women are more likely to be "part of the labor force" is because it allows them to add financial support to the socialist monster that we have created in this country. So the Dem politicians aided by the Marxist MSM do everything they can to discourage marriage and encourage the creation of more female taxpayers.

Ask yourself if you believe that women today are happier with their lot than the average 50's mom. I doubt it.

"It's not as necessary anymore because I can work. I can support myself."

And when you get older? No loved ones to fall back on or surround you. You'll be the epitome of the old spinster.

Reading that “article”.. all I could think of was... lack of morals, declining birthrate, expecting quality options while hanging out in a bar, selfishness, career before family. what a mess. who would even want women who thinks like this?

First they set things up so males are at a disadvantage in applying for jobs or college, then they wail about not finding a man who can give them the lifestyle they desire.

Most girls are a combination of overweight, tatt’d to the point of ridiculous, diseased from all those “hookups”, in major debt with college loans for their minimum wage jobs, did I mention fat?, attitudes beyond childish, immature, arrogant, self centered, did I mention fat?, and uncultured.

What ever happened to feminine? Or mature? Or educated? Or financial responsible? or beautiful? Or motherly? Who wants children with a child?
