Marriage is a Bad Deal for Most Men

In spite of the current state of affairs the unpleasant stench of romance, courtship, chivalry, and marriage, which only requires obligations of men to women, are shoved down our throats on a daily basis. Well, if we’re going to hear about marriage it’s only fair that we hear about the possibility of divorce and all of the implications surrounding it.

It’s no secret that women often marry men with more money or at least money is a huge priority in many relationships. With all of the providing of gifts, shelter, food, and even programs men pay for it can be argued that money is a huge priority amongst women regardless of being in an actual relationship, which is why an ex wife will gladly be single with your alimony payments.

It is rare, however, that women marry those men less capable of providing for them but when it does occur (often during a marriage – e.g. recession) negative consequences are involved for the man. Now before some of these high and mighty princess malibus get on their soap box and tell me how sexist I am, I will point out that women also claim that men marry for beauty. For constructive purposes, let us make a comparison between a beautiful woman and a financially stable man.


Inspired by poster on a forum but I have to refind the post:
From an economic standpoint a beautiful woman is a depreciating asset and a financially stable man is an improving asset. It is very likely that a rich man will accumulate more wealth but a beautiful woman will not become more beautiful and if anything she will become less beautiful. She’d be lucky to be remotely attractive when she’s 35 but when he’s 35 he’d likely be wealthier.

To those that take offense and jump on the female humping bandwagon keep in mind that if his money were to leave so would she. Therefore, a man needs a way out when her beauty leaves her. It is only fair, right? Plus, in the event of a divorce, she not only gets a way out but a nice compensation plan to go along with it but there is no way for him to hold onto whatever “assets” she brings to the table.

Although there are some happily married men and women the chances of being unhappy are much more common. The answer for most men isn’t marriage. If you plan on getting married I wish you well. Any man that has a good wife is fortunate and has a good thing. Before any women reading this get on their “he’s lucky to have me mode” any woman with a good husband is fortunate and has a good thing as well. Truth be told, I’d be glad if I could find “the right woman” but I am being realistic about the situation. Marriage is simply a losing proposition for most men.

    My parents got divorced when i was 3, i can remember my family as it was. vaguely. Thinking back to then makes me all teary eyed. It's the main reason i still want to get married some day.
    However I refuse to do so in this country. I'll go to japan or something. I want a wife and kids. most likely a pipe dream though.

    Hi,

    In France, there is a marriage settlement called "marriage under separation of goods". Do you know it in UK/USA (or others countries)?
    I can develop this point, if you want.

    So. I've a question: is it possible to get married with a church wedding without civil wedding?
