From what I see women will usually push for marriage after a couple years of relationship. They want the financial security and leech off of your resources. If they get bored they get divorced and take your children away from you. If you do not want to get married a woman will often times not want to be in a relationship with you or leave you behind and look for another victim (man) to secure the bag. I have never seen a woman fall in love with a broke ass bum. You need to have some money to be interesting. Women usually do not date down. Its a huge exception. They want the upgrade. If they dont get it they might aswell stay childless. They dont put as much effort into life. They use their looks to basically get snatched up by a man and have the man do everything in exchange for her vagina. Men have lower life expectancy because they are the work horses. When women have money they protect it like a castle. But men are supposed to give it up willingly. Western culture evolves around men being used financially by women. Either you enter the marriage wheel and loose your assets or you keep it casual and become a lonely man at some point in life. I respect men who have figured out the secret code to happiness being ALONE. These are the most powerful men since they can get around the whole marriage wheel and still live a fullfilling life somehow.

What are your thoughts on that? Now, you could argue there are exceptions. But the risk still outweighs the benefits.
