Oh come on pn6.

The Mens Rights movement is solidly against marriage. Sites you've repeatedly linked to yourself make the case for why marriage is clearly not in men's best interests. Eg. Don't Get Married "If you're thinking of getting married, I have one piece of advice: Forget it. Run."

The Daily Mail is a trashy tabloid rag that takes a hard right viewpoint. It's the Fox News of British papers.

This is social-conservative ideology, that couples need to be married in order for kids to have a good upbringing. Newsflash: the accessibility of divorce means people separate if they want to anyway, but it's just a lot more costly, and the man loses a lot more out of it.

Claiming that the ills of an area of a city are due entirely to a lack of parents getting married is as dogmatic as they accuse this MP of being.
