Big reason: there is a deliberate movement to take jobs from men and give them to women. Take away a man’s job, and you deny his manhood. A man needs to be the strong provider.
“What I am telling you is that there are no guarantees and your sweet, reasonable honey who loves you to death may decide she wants out of the marriage and turn into a monster once she has a lawyer whispering in her ear during the divorce.”
Awesome posting. Keep in mind, at least with US-born women, it’s not just the lawyer, it’s also her siblings (particularly sisters), her friends, her co-workers, and likely others who she knows. The guy never has a chance.
The first step for men who want their marriage to last is to marry into a culture that VALUES MARRIAGE, which means, sadly, a non-US and non-Western culture. Lots of options out there though...
“In your great-grandparents’ heyday, relationships were more about raising a family and making a living than love.”
Drivel.
The author may say some good things, but starting with that drivel questions his credibility.
Too many people read something or other about “the way it was”, in former times, think they are stating something that is a verifiable fact, and just believe it; and then repeat it themselves, as if it is a given that everyone understands is true.
It’s nonsense.
Hell, you look at that reason alone and begin to understand why more of this generation of men are turning to dolls to satisfy their sexual desires. Dolls won't sue you, ruin you, manipulate you, or stalk you.
I am so blessed to be married to a godly woman of noble character. This generation is lost.
“This has a lot to do with why divorce happened much less frequently in the past.”
More nonsense. The majority morals changed, that’s what caused the increase in divorce, not the “jobs” changes. Millions of good people have navigated the changing jobs scene, gotten married and stayed married, without divorce. They kept their morals intact.
Thanks for posting fascinating and factual history of the destruction of the nuclear family in America. There is no putting that genii back in the bottle.
Women no longer need men in any way, shape or form. They can literally go from cradle to grave without a man and do quite well for themselves in the current paper-pushing FIRE economy where constantly dying manufacturing trades are more automated than ever, whereas they needed a man for financial security and protection in a former world where often might made right.
No more. Marriage is becoming obsolete. The destruction of the nuclear family in America is almost complete and that will be the destruction of our society and culture. America will decline, fall, and be nothing when that is complete.
May the Lord God have mercy on us.
I have a friend whose wife left him for a multi millionaire. He is in his own right pretty well off, but not private jet well off. Anyway, her new squeeze, being a good business man, encouraged her to fleece him, make him liquidate his business, family home, everything, and split it down the middle. In the mean time, he develops a serious disease, probably because of the stress this caused. The only thing that saved home were his 3 grow children, who stood firmly behind him. She backed down.
We had a up & coming young male college intern at work who was offered a job right out of college at a pretty darn good starting wage. I liked the kid, and having a lot of time and experience in the industry I decided to give him some words of wisdom. I told him to be careful about women, as the smart ones would see his upwardly mobile economic track and try to put a leash on him asap. He was a bit reserved on hearing this advise, and I found out later his "girlfriend" was already pregnant (not planned on his part). I was too little, too late in my advise...
Last I heard, he didn't marry her, but does support and co-raise his kid, so i give him snaps for that. That story proved to me that the new generation of females are hunting for a provider, not necessarily a mate...
Well that's one way to say it. I have a slightly different way: They're all batshit crazy, period!
There are ZERO exceptions to that statement. It's only a matter of time until the batshit crazy comes out, for some it's sooner, for others it's later. It almost always happens with the onset of menopause for women as the hormones rage out of control.
Warning signs for men would include:
- "Hotflashes"
- That "distant" look in their eyes as their brain disengages when talking
- A sudden and intense focus on money (watch your bank accounts as menopause approaches and question every withdrawl)
- Talk of a sudden sense of "Freedom" once the kids turn 18
- Disengagement from the kids once they turn 18
- More "wine parties" with "the girls"
- An increase in her divorced friends (they travel in groups and recruit each other to divorce their husbands)
- Reading "relationship" related books (gives them "ammo" for complaints even if they don't really care/agree with what's in the book)
- Talk of "not being happy" anymore
- Complaints about lack of intimacy, especially if they're the one's who've shut that off. They have this unique way of trying to turn the tables here....
- Sudden/increased focus in remodeling the home (they want it ready to sell when they file for divorce)
And this is only a PARTIAL list!
My advice to both my sons, now 20 and 22 years old: DON'T DO IT! They know I'm not kidding.
Oh here we go. Another women bashing article. Mostly total horse shite. Its pathetic and laughable.
I was divorced after 27 years of marriage and shattered by it.
Perhaps I would have ended up forever against marriage and even women in general. It didn’t happen. Instead, I met a gal about my age who had been divorced after a 21 year marriage who had no intention of ever starting a relationship again.
We feel madly in love, got married a year later, have had a wonderful 20 years together and have ten grandkids we spoil and a wonderful modest retirement.
God can do wondrous things.
One is an unrealistic fantasy. One is not.

That’s because it is a very bad deal for men
