The researchers also found that young men are often wary of marriage because of worries that they will marry the wrong person, be forced to make too many compromises or take on too many burdens as a husband, or suffer huge losses if the marriage ends in divorce. An ex-wife will "take you for all you've got" and "men have more to lose financially than women" were common refrains.

Bluntly, the cost of doing business with women has risen dramatically with feminism. No wonder guys won't commit, you'd have to be crazy to lock yourself into the death grip of most American women.

Reading betweeen the lines, the singles ads you see are like "Lesbian BBW with attitude looking for smart, handsome affectionate man ONLY if he has a great job. Want to have babies, then get divorced, after which I will keep the kids and your paycheck." At what point do guys get smart and just dump the biatches.

Nicely put. More than half of my male contemporaries (I'm 50) are divorced, some two or even three times. This isn't a psychological decision at all, but one of cold, hard economics. The tendency of the Marxist element in modern feminism is the same as the tendency of the Marxist element in anything else it touches - it reduces man to economic man, (largely because economic man may be controlled and spiritual man may not).

Feminism didn't used to be like that - reading such luminaries as Mary Wollstonecraft reminds us that the rights of women took a very bad turn sometime in the 1960s, when they fell under the leftward swing of liberation theory and the pseudoscientific drive of better living by chemistry. A poisoned seed, and we are now reaping a poison plant.
