I’m simply saying that young people aren’t marrying in part due to lack of ability (good income) to do so. Also factors beyond a man’s ability to change is the inherent risk of getting married that didn’t exist 50 years ago.
Helen Smith wrote a book called Men on Strike. Here is an interview about it with her. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3yzUECFwU3U
Basically her summary is that men are acting in a logical fashion by choosing not to get married. The risk vs. reward thing has trended to make it so. Risks are up and the rewards of marriage are down.
Now sure, many young men just want free milk and to lead a hedonistic life style. But even if that mindset wasn’t there, marriage rates would still be down as marriage isn’t the good deal for men it once was. Telling men to suck it up and accept terms as currently offered simply won’t work.
>>I wouldn’t if I had the choice to make again.
Uhuh.
The children you had and/or adopted happy to hear that, are they?
