Men are reluctant to marry because women are stupid enough to give the goodies away without benefit of a ring.

Why should a guy risk the messiness of divorce when he can simply live with a woman, and even have kids with her, then just walk way if things get dicey.

Well, if he can do that, then he's an idiot. It's not just the woman who's involved in these shack-ups. It's the men, too.

You either believe in shacking up or you don't. If you don't, then find a woman who shares your point of view, and who is compatible with you in every aspect of life. Get engaged, and don't marry for at least a year. You'll figure it out by the end of that year.

Aren't you supposed to also mention something about cows and free milk?
