This is a big reason relationships are failing and people aren’t getting married anymore

Women’s expectations are astronomical and they don’t settle for anything less. My ex dumped me out of nowhere to date some old rich guy. They’re never satisfied.

Why would a guy get married? I’ve been married, it was a disaster and I was taken to the cleaners and lost my house, access to my kids, accrued massive amounts of debt and suffered emotionally. I went from a beautiful home to an apartment and debt collectors calling me up. My credit took a massive hit, I was depressed. This was on top of dealing with an EX who wouldn’t just let me be, constant harassment and mental abuse. It took me a long time to set boundaries because I was just mentally done.

So what I mentioned is about a 50% outcome. Marriages fail half the time, you are putting too much at risk.

Of If I could do it again I wouldn’t have. And no, there isn’t a “you’ll find the right one”, there is a 1/2 chance you’ll end up divorced and broke . And of course the part no one talks about, you lose your friends. All your married friends dismiss you and you’re alone. A lot of married guys just try to keep the peace and go along with the wife and stay friends with your ex.

Anyways you’re taking a lot of risk getting married as a guy so there is literally no reward

People aren’t getting married because women get prizes for divorce. Imagine making a lifetime commitment to someone then they decide to end it out of the blue because they’re bored of the relationship. Now she’s somehow entitled to all of your money.

You cant expect men to make families when there’s absolutely zero non-religious incentives.

The big problem, in my opinion, is that women always want to date up.

Women have been succeeding in the workforce and don't actually need men to protect or provide for them. They can get a glock to protect themselves, and they make as much if not more money than men do.

However, they still want a man to be traditional when it comes to dating and relationships. They want a man to pay for everything and take a bullet for them should the need arise.

So, if a woman is making 100k a year, she wants her man to make 165k a year. That's roughly the numbers from studies, a desire for a man to make 65% more than they do on average.

And of course, in order to succeed in the work place these women have to have "boss bitch energy", which is highly unattractive to most men. And when it's not unattractive, soon becomes apparent that the woman wants more and more and more.

Women are never satisfied unless they think the man they have is the best they can get. And with social media, they always think they can get better.

Some men are trash, but in general, the problem is women as a whole in modern society.

Honestly, who cares. Invest in cat food and move on with your life.

Yep..always want more real-estate..stuff…Until they have to do something to keep it shiny and new looking…..They just need a vacation to Paris or the Spa….cause there so exhausted from the 4 hours a day on Social.

As a divorced father with daughters, it's tough to explain to them why men don't want to marry anymore.

Ambitious-Reach-1186 · 2024-08-27T12:49:20+00:00

They don't exactly do much to want to be married to them. Except leave and take your money but that's about it

Ericdergrosse · 2024-08-27T08:34:10+00:00

My question thats still unanswer is that why didnt we instandly demolisch all the existing privileges for women as soon as the pandering started like in many west countrys obligation as a man to serve is still active. If women are really not inferior physicaly why not serve?

The military would gladly take them in the always cry that there arent enought recruits

I see that alone from a mental angle most women arent build to serve but still the "perks" of the sex remains

anothermanwithaplan · 2024-08-27T14:27:05+00:00

This is fatherless behaviour, plain and simple. It will continue to rise, because the number of fatherless families is at its highest and growing.

Marriage isn’t worth it to men, because an increasing number of women are being taught values that are not compatible with what men want.

Then divorce is a reward for the same women, who are also the problem, as some sort of punishment for the man.

It’s long overdue for better.

The problem I see with many failed relationships is that they divorce without trying to fix their marriage. Infidelity can be a breaking point, as well as abuse. But a lot of times the excuse is that they are not in love anymore or irreconcilable differences. Marriage isn't about staying together because you are in love with your spouse, it's about staying together because you made a commitment to each other and God. Those vows have meaning. There will be times when you might fall out of love with each other and that is normal. You both need to work together to continue loving each other and staying compatible. That "spark" you feel at the beginning of a relationship is not meant to last decades.

It can be hard work and many people have grown lazy, selfish, hedonistic, and prefer the easy way in life. Unfortunately, that also trickles down to parenthood. Birthrate declines in liberal and more affluent areas because people view children in a negative way.

Well since most women support feminism you should put them there too. Why is this fixation in this sub to many times paints women as only being victims being brainwashed by feminism and not being capable of doing harm themselves? You are removing the accountability of women by yourself. Since 61% of women are feminists you can infer from that that they are misandrists otherwise they wouldn't support a movement that constantly villifies men since the beginning at that and that has given privileges to women and has kept men at a worse quality of life whilst holding them more accountable in front of the law.

The main reason i think is that women at least in the west are now free and not forced to marry men anymore and don't need men also to survive anymore, they also apperently see the vast majority of men as highly unattractive ... and many of them prefer to remain cat ladies for life rather than settle for an average man lol

DrinkingInSunshine · 2024-08-27T15:24:45+00:00

Wasn’t there a study that found that when women were offered a hypothetical partner who has 80% of all the things they could want in a partner, overwhelmingly the women said no? They wanted more than 80%. Meanwhile, the same situation being offered to men - overwhelmingly the men said yes, they’d take that any day. Women tend to be harder to please, and feminism reinforces that.

Things are busted. They are. I keep thinking the only egalitarian way forward is men and women maintain their own homes and finances and have committed relationships that last because they don't have to fight over money and domestic chores and home decor.

I'm just barking into the wind though. Women don't want you to have your "male space". They want to harness your labor and income through the legally binding contract of marriage, then assign you chores when you're not working and bringing in income. Girl boss of your private life. That's their end game.

why did the mods remove this post?

Birth rates in every country are negatively correlated with women’s average educational attainment and workplace participation. And birth rates of natives in western nations have been falling for decades. Laying this at the feet of “feminism” is both petty and mean spirited. If you are so interested in having children and traditional gender roles, then date stupid ugly chicks, pay for everything, and stop whining.

A dominant theme in this sub is what a load of shit it is that women blame everything on men. Seems pretty hypocritical to blame everything on women in response.

Sam__Toucan · 2024-08-27T06:55:17+00:00

Struggling to see the men's rights angle here... you're just hating on feminists and women in general (well 61% of them)
