Don't be ridiculous. It's clearly men who are being little man-children and playing video games instead of growing up and getting married. That's what real men do. I just showed you a link, here it is again:

And divorces are initiated by women more than men probably because the man is either lazy, does not do his equal share of the housework, or he abuses here. All good reasons to file a divorce. It's pretty misogynistic, actually, to assume that women do it because they want to have 50% of a man's money. That's not what it is about.

Before you get married, make sure you know what you're doing.

That's wrong, a marriage has some advantages fiscally speaking (less taxes, easier procedures for daily life).
But in some countries like France you have some possibilities to avoid a marriage: The PACS (civil solidarity pact), which more or less give the same rights and advantages as for a married couple (and you also avoid endless and costing divorces)

Not in america. In america marrying means MORE taxes, and you will lose benefits like medicare/food stamps.

Someone sounds angry she can't find anyone willing to marry her sorry ass. Try furthering yourself as a human and being less of a clingy bitch.

"The share of young men (ages 18 to 34) who say that having a successful marriage is one of the most important things in their lives has dropped six percentage points since 1997, from 35% to 29%."

It shouldn't be one of the most important things in ones life. That's true for men and women. Even 63% of women agree with that. Only a small minority of either gender think it's one of the most important life goals.

A womans goals should be to advance herself, not to find a man and then rely upon him to provide for her.

"Not in america. In america marrying means MORE taxes, and you will lose benefits like medicare/food stamps."

No, married couples in America pay far less taxes.

Consider that not every thread is for you, Mr. Entitled. If you don't have anything to say, just stfu.

Anna, could you perhaps change your name? I'm feeling a bit uncomfortable with this

Money has more to do with this than some might think.

I'll tell everyone what I think and I make no apology for it. I'm not going to change my name for it. If you want to change yours, go ahead.

I'm not changing my name because of a troll, sorry

I'm not a troll. Maybe you are one?

And why are you apologizing? https://youtu.be/rzL-vdQ3ObA

Let's be honest Anna, the reason women say sorry is because man is superior.

Is that the reason, Vladimir, why you are still single? No woman would want you anyway.

God damn X got burned

The day X was burned...

X ----> xD

Also Anna; sorry you can't find a man so you posted this in anger

People just become secular, they live together just like a pair of trial only they can be separated more easily than a couple of trial, and people are more spoiled, people do not know how to cope with problems, so each row becomes exaggerated and at the end get divorced because of stress and strife, and usually mens like more freedom than women, so usually women marry early

Men are superior in nature. But in this modern world, things are getting better as far as equality.
I know firsthand that a lot of divorces ARE just for the money, and a lot of marriages ARE just for money.
I think the worst factor is children. The psychological affects of a divorce, arguments that are not logical or resolved and not seeing a parent as often or never (usually your father will be the one isolated from you). It just passes on to the next generation that way. That's what happened with my mom and my dad when i was young. Their parents divorced too, and it naturally passed on.

Gender battles are stupid. Men aren't to blame for the world's problems (and neither are women).

Recent years have been very hard on young men and women entering the workforce, and it's harder than ever for young people to financially support a family. I have little doubt that this concern disproportionately affects young men and makes them more reluctant to marry and start a family.

Some US laws are a problem. I have a friend that is legally divorced that would still be legally married if it weren't for a US law that punishes marriage (they still consider themselves married). I know of a different couple (in the US) that got divorced because both were disabled and disability payments are better for unmarried couples than married ones. Marriage financially benefits some couples, but harms others (particularly those that are poor and in need of government assistance).


Women are at a much higher risk for money problems if they get divorced (with kids) than men are. For women overall, issues involving money are a deterrent to divorce, not a motivating factor.

If this continues to attract stupid gender war comments, I hope this thread gets locked.
