Unfortunately, that has been my experience, too. All the protective instincts that were grilled into me by my upbringing have just caused me to be despised by the opposite sex.
I'm afraid Colson doesn't even acknowledge one prime reason for the sad marriage situation these days. A lot of us men just don't really cotton to the idea of allowing our lives and everything we've worked for to become subject to destruction by some woman with a whim, a slimy lawyer, and a humped-up liberal judge who thinks he owns everything we have simply by decreeing it.
Which is yet another good reason to eliminate the concept of government-recognized marriage altogether. No property should ever be regarded as co-owned without a written contract to that effect between the co-owners. If newly married couples had to face and negotiate concrete realities up front, they'd both be much more aware as time went on, and there would be no nasty surprises or negotiations over property at the time of a divorce.
