This might sound bad but I am about to the point to where I would advise my son, when the time is right, to just shack up with a girl instead of marring. My rational is: we now have no fault divorce, a 50% divorce rate, courts that are anti male, a legal system that goes out of the way to destroy the bonds between children and father, a legal system that thinks justice has been served when they have destroyed the financial well being of the father, and a society which looks on men as a check writer.

...and I suppose you think that the excuses listed above allows you to set aside what you know is right and good.

Let's not forget the financial trap set for men. It's called divorce. If any guy has accumulated substantial assets before he gets married, those assets are at risk in a divorce. Would you trust any pre-nup agreement?

In the US, twice as many women file for divorce as men. Financially, women make out literally like bandits in a divorce. They get a whole bunch of money they never had to earn. They steal it, legally.

Ask any poor schmuck who got screwed in a divorce what marriage is all about.

Why is there a growing "marriage strike" among men in the US? It's simple - marriage is too risky - legally, financially and emptionally. Loose your kids, your rights, all of your assets and become a criminal without due process. It's a suckers game for fools. Men are finally wising up.
