Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine Id earn the ire of a character named Turd Flinging Monkey, the nom de plume of a popular online activist. A leader in the Men Going Their Own Way (MGTOW) movement, which encourages men to avoid romantic relationships with women, Monkey did not take kindly to my new Prager University video talking up the benefits of marriage for men.
In the video, I noted, among other things, that married men work harder (about 400 more hours), smarter (theyre less likely to quit without having found another job), and more successfully (they make about $16,000 more per year) than their single peers. I described these as features, not bugs, of married life for men.

In another episode the Three Stooges had fiancees; Stella, Nella, & Bella.
The 1934 musical premiered a young Lucille Ball.
The contrast to the standard American marriage is striking.
“This all can be traced back to when they allowed women to vote.”
And the Hydramatic transmission. I lay the blame for this on GM’s doorstep!
When a woman calls you on the phone, you can always safely answer “what do you need/want from me today?”.
They never, and I mean never, call to see how you are, or to tell you something they thought you might find cool of helpful.
A lot more than that!! Mine is worth it, though. Besides, she work, too. Or did until she retired 2 months ago.
The problem with the left is a total disregard of biology. Chromosomes don't determine sex, feelings do. Reproduction, according to the state, is inconsequential and 'love' and 'feelings' are paramount.
So it is difficult to talk about the 'mating game' and men going there own way without going back to a time when marriage had a purpose. With that in mind we can never forget that the eukaryote has always been at war with the eusocial.
Nothing destroys a man's wealth faster than a failed marriage. And today, women have all the power and with that have no incentive to stay in a marriage if it gets in trouble. Since women have no incentive to stay in a marriage, men have no incentive in joining one.
So, if the benefit of the whole does not disrupt the benefit of the individual, more men might be enticed into getting married and starting a family. But those days are gone.
Yep. It makes sense.
Seems that way to me. Just look at all those shows lauding conspicuous consumption around marriage, for example, "Say Yes to the Dress". More about being a Disney Princess for a day.

Whatever that means . . .
“the Hydramatic transmission”
Ah, yes! I forgot about that one.
If I had to pick, I’d say wives are worse than husbands at making marriage miserable. And I blame feminism, which is not trying to right a wrong but to denigrate men. Men have to be very careful and look for “outside the box” women who have no interest in “Bachelor” style shows or have individual friends, not a “set” of fellow women who sharply keep each other in a tight social prison. Men shouldn’t choose wives with their penises. She should be a considerate person BEFORE being a woman. Ask her which she is first. She should put kindness BEFORE gender. That is your best chance of happiness. The more the woman follows a societal mold, the less you should want to be yoked to her for life.
Also, men are NOT monogamous! Our INSTINCTIVE desire is to sleep with as many women as possible. Females once had the supreme authority to 'ground' a man with marriage in exchange for a regular and safe place to put his ****. In the '60's, females decided to give it all away for free, thus forfeiting their power over men and destroying the institution of marriage.
Why date man-hater feminists when you can go to an Asian massage parlor and indulge in the most beautiful AND FEMININE females in the world and be treated like a KING?
Economic and social Lysistrata and ostracism from men: turn-about is fairplay.
Be careful what you wish(ed) for, ladies.
Don't be sorry, we need more like you.

Yet the single men are happier and not as stressed out.
BTW, Feminism has triggered the divorce revolution. Get real, author.
Is it cowardice though?
The divorce courts are heavily stacked against the man (there's no jury), as are the enforcement of laws (ex: domestic abuse), thus the costs of "being wrong" about a woman are exceedingly high... and there could be a lot of humility there by saying (1) I'm not the best judge of people, and (2) women are especially dangerous to to judgment/discernment because of my sex-drive.
The stakes are very high, and maybe they view the odds as bad for getting a winner: certainly not a terrible assumption when you consider how much time and energy is used in education and society to pump feminism into women's heads. (See the Misandry in the Media series.)
I’m sorry. She was perfectly evil and disgusting, it sounds like. You’re better off without her. I hope you have some good things to do to distract yourself. Life will get better. I suspect one day you will find someone else, in a different class of person than in the past, but I wouldn’t worry about that now. You need a break.
If womens morality doesnt improve, reverting marriage back to a permanent union will only result in more husbands being killed for insurance money when the wife wants to find herself.
Yes, that was always a problem:
