Considering all of these issues and troubles, what we’re seeing makes sense.
It makes sense for men to avoid marriage.
Marriage has always been something of a leap of faith.
But in today’s world, I can understand men who weigh the factors and decide marriage is not for them.
Men can be happy with dating and enjoying female companionship without all the downsides of marriage, then one can understand them doing so.
The old Benny Hill doggerel comes to mind...
“He said son, stop running round,
its time for you to settle down.
I said to me pop, ‘Dad, look...
Why would I want to buy a book?
When there’s an open lendin’ library
In the town?’”
