Just for the record, I'm not in any rush to marry one of you guys either

So you are pretty much asserting what MR often states, that marriage is an outdated concept that benefits very few. Also that you can be totally happy without a binding legal agreement that ties you to another person. I don't see why you were down voted.

The rotten eggs spoil the bunch my dear.

Obvious troll, but it is not that you want to or not, but that you can if you so choose. Even if I had complete faith, it would be moronic to expose myself to such a degree based on my parter's whims. You might not want to, but I bet it is good to know you can if you ever change your mind. I wouldn't join the Army even if I thought they currently wouldn't want to send me to war and I would be stupid to give up the rights to my person and property to someone else even if I don't think they are evil enough to be secretly scheming to screw me.

"... but I don't need to take your money nor do I need a marriage to affirm a wonderful relationship."

Good for you peanut. For the record, I don't think women are evil. Not at all. What I do believe is that a female-friendly bias in family court is allowing women to take advantage of men. I can't speak for everybody here, but let me tell you if men had the advantages in family court then WE would be the ones taking advantage of the system and women. IMO the problem with marriage/divorce and child custody/support is the law, not women.

Don't let the circlejerk pull ya down. It's nice to hear that not all women wanna clamp on the ball and chain. That is unless that's your game ;-)

Of course all the women who are still say exactly that.

Fine by us, sister. you live your life, we live ours. Shaming language doesnt work on us anymore anyway.

Nobody cares.

After you've had three babies, one each to a different bad-boy fling of the moment, like some women do, and forty is looming over the horizon, that meal ticket maybe starts looking pretty good?

But if you value yourself so highly that you'd prefer to grow old alone rather than "step down" for any man, that's your choice.

Good for you, now go read the shit posted on 2XC.

Fucking hypocrite.

No, but as soon as you miss your period, that equation changes. Granted, it should change--women that just have random kids, don't prepare for the future, let their shit hang out... they're nasty. But in all relationships the accidental pregnancy is the #1 thing on a guy's mind--or at least, it should be, you idiots. Wrap it up, or you'll lose yo shit!

thetrollking · 2010-09-23T22:21:38+00:00

But I bet you still want to control some aspect of your male partner. Whether it's his boys night out or controlling his dick and forcing monogamy on him.....the point is this: MATRIMONY is not some patriarchal oppression or conspiracy, instead it was created by women as a way to control men, then the church adopted it and then the state did too, all as a way to control men.

And you really think you don't need men for anything? Bwahahaha, right back at you. Remember that next time the power, plumbing, or anything else breaks. Remember that when something bad happens and you need a strong firefighter to carrry you out of your burning house.
