This is simple. Why buy the cow when the milk is free? More rules and regulations keep more men away from marriage.

I have heard that all of my life; where does one go for this free milk?

I’m not complaining about marriage, just have to make sure its to the right person.

Far too many folks think “love conquers all”... this of course sets them up for failure.

Writing is often on the wall for divorce before a couple even says “I do”, but neither are willing to make honest assessments of themselves, let alone the person they “love” to recognize it.

Which is why selecting a good wife is so important.

A man should make sure she knows how to cook, and owns her own set of cookwear.

It's important for a prospective wife to have an education in some useful field, like massage therapy. (There's nothing like a good foot rub after a long day at the shooting range!)

She should know which end of the vacuum cleaner goes on the carpet, and how to dust not just the visible surfaces, but also behind the microwave oven and the tops of the ceiling fan blades.

A good women is not afraid to scrub the toilet or the floor next to it, even when she is out of cleaning gloves.

Yes, choose well, young men, and you will never regret getting married.

Not just free, the same cow supplies milk to God knows how many. Why would you want milk from such a cow ? And sometimes all it takes for half a gallon is to buy the cow a small bowl of fodder and 'be nice to her'.

"More rules and regulations keep more men away from marriage."

not necessarily a bad thing for men who don't want a wife and children to not marry...too many men get married because its the expected thing and they become lousy husbands and lousy fathers.....

don't marry and have children unless you are committed to the values of marriage and children....

that means no more porn, no more late night carousing...not more spending on big boy toys when the rent is due...

same rules for women...

I've never really liked that expression. On one level, it suggests that a man's only concern in a relationship is sexual gratification.

But even beyond that, it suggests to women that the proper thing to do is to withhold sex so you can get a man to commit to you. I respect a woman who abstains out of self-respect or for religious reasons, but to use it as a relationship strategy is cheap and manipulative.

Commitment should come as a result of a man's admiration, love, and respect. It shouldn't come about as a result of his physical desperation.
