Today THE worst financial decision a single male can make is to sign a marriage contract without a pre-nuptual; especially in California! The decline of marriage trend is a direct reflection of progressives controlling the financial neutering of males, and the younger generation realizing that there is no cultural incentive for males to marry the modern female whatsoever. Women have more cultural incentives to divorce and receive alimony than to stay married. The only reason why this statistic is not lower is because lesbians and gays ARE getting married, and this trend will continue UNTIL the courts figure out which ‘partner’ within gay marriage IS the MALE figure (regardless of gender) in the relationship, and that group will eventually be financially ruined and punished through ‘gaylamony’ support to the ‘female’ (regardless of gender). I repeat; marriage is the single worse financial decision any male (regardless of gender) can make in their lifetimes.
Divorces are weighed heavily in the woman's favour whether or not she was the one that committed fraud, adultery, or wanted the divorce. Women can claim abuse without proof and the man is automatically guilty in the eyes of the law. Marriage is in most cases, a losing proposition for the man. I sorely miss a female companion but I cannot risk being financially ruined with another failure.
It reminds me of an airline pilot I knew that was living on a one acre plot in a mobile home, driving a ten year old car. He told me he had married three times and another would make his take home personal income nil...his entire salary of the upper $100,000 was dedicated to alimony and child support.
marriage DIVORCE is the single worse financial decision any male (regardless of gender) can make in their lifetimes.
My husband and I did two John Gottman seminars and found them to be both helpful and useful. We are both conservatives and found them respectful of each partner.
If one is struggling with their marriage there are tools around to help them to move forward through some tougher times.
There is not a lot out there to support married couples these days. Plugging into some tools that can help is great.

BINGO!!!! Give that man a prize!
