  • Marriage makes no sense for the modern male

    I'm feeling lazy. Please think of examples to prove my point. Thank you.


    Example:
    1.Over here the wife almost always gets the child (even when there is evidence she is abusive).
    Modern man calls walking more quickly in the same direction down the same road “change.”
    The world, in the last three hundred years, has not changed except in that sense.
    The simple suggestion of a true change scandalizes and terrifies modern man. -Nicolás Gómez Dávila

        You raise an issue but want us to do the work? And you wonder why your ex got the brats?

          2. After you've been together for a while, wifey starts to gain lost of weight. You're too anxious not to appear shallow and 'sexist' that you're afraid to tell her she's fat and how it disgusts you.

            You can get 90% of the benefits of marriage just by cohabitating.

              I love watching my kids grow. We have them set out in the back yard where they catch the most sun, and we water them every day. The girl has really blossomed and the boy is growing like a weed. You just don't get this type of stuff being single or via gay co-habitation.

                    Be careful, Hera. In some anglophone areas, you can gain a common-law spouse by cohabiting!
                    I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

                      It makes perfect sense if she has a job and makes money, you can help spend it...

                        Married couples actually get a lot of tax breaks in ways that cohabiting (or same-sex couples who can't legally get married) don't have.

                        You can add your dollar limits together to increase the level of deductions you get from certain types of home debt, for example.

                          I think I saw stats that married people are richer, live longer and are happier.

                            Meh, I've heard this whole "if you're not religious, there's no point in getting married" thing before. I'm not religious, and it never entered my mind that I wouldn't get married. To each their own, I suppose.
