Well, only 2 types of people marry:
SMART women
DUMB men
While it's stupid for a man to succumb to the archaic, societal convention of marraige, a woman is smart to marry and take the man's name because when the marraige fails (50% of all marraiges end in divorce), the woman (usually)stands to get paid a lot of money.
So, a woman having to take a man's name in marraige eventually pays off--for women. She can always switch her name back after the marraige fails.
There's so many gems here, I hardly know where to start.
All men who marry are dumb? I guess if you were told by any men that they're having a very rewarding and enjoyable marriage, you just wouldn't believe them. You also presumably don't realize that in some marriages, the woman is monetary worth more than the man.
Your reverse claim is equally idiotic; All women who marry are smart? Most men aren't worth marrying. The benchmark man is broke, overweight, and going nowhere. Guys, some of you seriously need to get over yourselves. It's quite hard to get raped in a divorce when some of you only have 2 things of value; that being jack and s***.
I was delightfully entertained by your claim "when a marriage fails" immediately followed by an acknowledgment that only 50% of them do.
Finally, who does he chose to honor with a quote in his sig? Yes, you guessed it..... a "DUMB" married dude.
