Funny how many female replies to that thread are QED of the reasons men avoid marriage today. Swear to god, in some respects, they really are a hivemind, certainly call from the same playbook to an alarming degree for what are supposed to be independent, individual, adult human beings. It's like there's no bell curve with tails with US women today in their thinking, opinions and response, just a narrow, very high, finger-width protuberance of... the same. I guess this is how Katy Perry videos get 500,000,000 views on youtube. I doubt men are responsible for that.
For US men who don't absolutely need to have children and a family to be fulfilled, marriage is like taking up heroin or crack in terms of legal and financial risk. Even honest, objective -women- should be able to admit, or at least sympathize with this, as it's a matter of f-ing LAW, blatantly obvious hypergamy we benefit from and suffer from alternatively, and well-documented prevailing culture, not just some "bad attitude," yet I have never seen any of them, not even "good" ones, do so, in such discussions. Instead, they holler "sexist!" "misogynist!" constantly try to shift things back to themselves, "women's issues," "women's needs," engage in stale old shaming techniques, "man up!" "grow up!" sling fallacies like "well women get burned in divorce too!" just like they are screeching for more resources in some primordial troop of chimps. That's what they start to sound like in the inane repetitiveness of it.
Not ONE OBJECTIVELY HONEST WOMAN EVER in these discussions concerning the gross antimale risk imbalance in US marriage today. Surely there are some women out there somewhere who see at least the repetitiveness and inanity of the typical female responses to male concerns about marriage, and seek to craft some different talking points? You'd think that mothers of male children who are experiencing it would form some sympathy and understanding. But NO, they do not, not a single new original retort to men griping about marriage, leaving it in droves, among them, the exact same stuff over and over for decades now. Eh, there are a handful out there, like Karen Straughan and a couple of other antifeminists who try to understand.
Thank goodness for the internet, because though everyone is "in it for themselves" to large degree, women show their hand in their internet presence as carrying self-absorption to truly outrageous lengths compared to even the most egotistical men, and doing so blithely as a matter of innate privilege. There's a reason that most NPDs are supposedly male, what is termed "narcissistic disorder" in the male psyche is "business as usual" and natural in the female. The net drives this home abundantly and daily.
