Getting married and raising a family can be one of the most rewarding things to do in life. While people do have issues, and relationships turn bad, that is not the majority of relationships. Divorces which are done quickly and on an amicable basis are even more common, and so are people in long term and loving relationships. I feel for younger people, and those who are still single in the age of Tinder, guys especially, but don't give up. Stay guarded, but at least be open to it.

Earnings are based on demand. It's not an area of advantage, but an area that is equal.

Yet, as a woman, I cannot go for a run or ride on my own for fear of being raped. Totes advantaged!

I mentioned earnings because it is held as one area in which men have an advantage over women. I'm not sure that the advantage is due to sexism - if the advantage exists all.
 
Will getting married make me happier? Do I have to do it? But is the love compete without marriage? Parents won't like a marriage less life... I have two kids with two women already... Why would I complicate my life further with marriage...? I'm really thinking about this now. I might as well focus on raising my kids and have a girlfriend for life then... I think.

thanks Emjay for the encouraging words - I have had a few rewarding relationships - one lasted 12yrs till she decided she wanted her "freedom" after the last of her 3 kids left, but as far as marriage goes I don't see that happening as I don't see the point of it.

what difference does a legal document make to a healthy committed relationship?

Sorry to hear. 12 years is a long time. :crying:
 
My brother didn't even need to get married to battle his arse off to see his daughter.

His attorney was a woman and she herself said everything is stacked against the man when it comes to divorce, maintenance and visitation rights.

And that is the point of the whole thread. (we are screwed)

My lawyer said same to me. Both my friend's lawyers said the same to them.
There is no point in doing the custody battle. You will loose as it is stacked against you.
The only time the male gets custody basically is when the woman voluntarily grants it. Any resistance then it goes to the woman

We as men are baited into slavery.

She knew she looked hot with her nipples showing - that's why she posted. The whole feminism thing was just a slant that deflected criticism from some people.

I'm all for freeing the nipple, as long as I'm allowed to look.
 
Yea, I took it upon myself to get the old snippy snippy, so no kids for me. My doctor said for a 27-year-old to do this is crazy and irreversible. Then I said to him well if you look at research done in the States, men that do the snippy and want kids all they need to do is go back and let them reattach the cords and there's a chance that your body will resume it's normal function. 9/10 subjects managed to have active sperm even after 4 years of snippy.

And to tell you the truth I am happier cause now I can prove each person I date that comes up with the pregnant crap I just look at them and say."well I can't have kids cause I've done the old snippy'
 
I've never been quite brave enough for that. Maybe at some point I do want kids, I don't know.

But I think there are significant problems with relations between the sexes. I believe feminism has gone too far, and has actually got out of touch with reality. Men feel increasingly alienated, and that their problems are not being listened. Nobody cares about men's problems - feminists say, men had it so good for thousands of years, a little payback is in order.

Which is a strange notion to have - that men "deserve" a little sexism against them. But more than one feminist has said this. So, its no surprise that this alienates men. Why would a man support a feminist if they feminist is actively working against his own interests? If feminists were purely working for equality, then I can see why a man would support them, but they aren't. They don't want 50%, they want 100%.

Not that men are angels and without blame - we certainly aren't. But it feels like both sides are talking past each other, and not really understanding each other.

I predict fewer and fewer people will get married, and fewer and fewer babies will be born. The Western birth rate will drop dramatically, and in about 10 years it might be seen as the biggest threat to our survival. You might start to see adverts encouraging people to hook up. There will be many more single mothers than there are now.

I personally believe that women are more affected by loneliness than men are, but we will see if that is true in a few years. Already just about every dating site, or dating event you go to has a lot more women than men. If you are a guy that is good at picking up women (I unfortunately am not), you will clean up. It will get super easy. Get a snip and you don't have to worry about babies.

You know, the tubes sometimes manage to spontaneously re-attach post-op. If you've actually been accused of being the daddy of someone's baby, it's conceivably possible you're a daddy and just don't know it. :p
 
If she loves you and wants to get married she will sign a Prenuptial agreement stating that thing will be split fairly and you wont pay her to "keep up her lifestyle" if she doesnt want to sign it, she doesnt love you, move on.
