Why are men “afraid” of commitment?
A Voice For Men ^ | April 13, 2019 | John Davis

Posted on 04/18/2019 9:34:05 AM PDT by rickmichaels

When the media “reports” that men are “afraid” of commitment, it’s a continuation of a 50 year trend to mock and disparage men for their reproductive choices.

Men aren’t “afraid” of commitment. When men walk away from “commitment” and marriage, they are making intelligent choices. Fear doesn’t enter into men’s minds when they walk away from women in our “modern” culture.

There was once a time when marriage was an honorable institution. It was not that long ago.

As mankind rose from primitive savagery, to civilizing the world, men were able to bring art, beauty, truth and goodness to the human condition. Marriage was vital to the stability that permitted these advances in humanity.

Marriage was a balanced set of cultural traditions and values in which men and women supported each other, assumed gendered roles that encouraged them to support each other, and, provided a means for men and women to enhance their lives through the synergy of mutual care, respect, responsibility and knowledge for and about each other.

Those days are long gone.

Marriage is no longer an honorable institution. It is simply a device of the neo-Marxist state to exploit men.

Do you think that is an exaggeration?

Let’s ask some straight questions.

What benefits does marriage offer a man?

The answer is that marriage offers nothing to men. At one time, men could enjoy trusting a woman with his love and sexual feelings. Current government regulation, however, has, virtually demonized and criminalized every aspect of men’s feelings and sexuality in, and outside of marriage.

At one time, Men could count on marriages lasting a lifetime. This gave him, his wife and his children stability and the incentive to work together, as a family, for long term benefits and gains.

Now, women file 80% of divorces, within about 8 years of marriage, use the biased and oppressive family courts to strip a man of his children, his life savings, and leave him to twist in the wind without a support network of any kind. Our laws and family court judges are designed to encourage women to get a divorce, alienate the children from their Father’s protection, and, exploit men for the convenience and enrichment of the neo-marxist state . . .

Men are dying from suicide at six times the rate of women in some age categories. We know that one of the reasons is the man-hating (misandry) that saturates our institutions (law, education, military, religion, etc.), and, that the other is that a man loses everything in most marriages. To meet draconian government regulation of marriage, a man must abandon his personal support network of friends, and, when he is divorced, and impressed into the service of the state to pay child support, he no longer has the time or energy to form personal support networks of friends.

Men walk away from marriage and commitment with women out of intellect and common sense choice. “Fear” has nothing to do with it.

Foreign born women are better left in their own country in this day and age.

Agree, so you know how I handled the situation. 😁 I do indeed, have an interesting life. 👍

That’s what I get for critiquing.

Still, it’s crappy writing.

Fortunately for me, I took the time to learn about their culture. Some things I like about it, and some things I don’t, but it seems to work out for us. 👍

There was a common thread I noticed with the abused women I worked with. The men had spent years viciously attacking the women physically and/or mentally, completely beating them down to soul-less, timid, pitiful beings. Then when a wife finally collected a tiny bit of self respect — enough to decide to leave or fight back — the man tells everyone, “Oh, yeah; she’s crazy.” Well, sure; she’s crazy NOW. You made her that way.

Where I lived then the police were as bad as the abusers, and almost always took the men’s side. The whole scenario was so disturbing that I had to find another volunteer outlet.

Uh-huh. Ever read any of the Old Testament prophecies? Like "if you screw with me, you'll end up eating your own children?"

Not all cultural developments are from God.

I know that offends the Holy Hamster. Too bad.

except that you would probably give help and guidance to the people who matter here, your daughters. Sometimes you have to be nice to the ex because they are related to the children.

If people have poor character, stay away from them - regardless of how good they look.

Adherence to this simple rule will head off 98% of the problems detailed in this thread. :)

You seem to post a lot of typos. Are they really typos? Perhaps you’re just ignorant and you don’t know any better.

Mr.Unique is indeed unique in that the English skills of even the most retarded of students in the sixth grade greatly supersede his own.
