Men aren't avoiding marriage, they're avoiding divorce.
Dead right.
The government did it to us
OHHHHHHH...! Bravo, Sir!
100% men don't have a problem with the concept of marriage or how it works
we have a problem with literally getting bent over a barrel in divorce court and losing everything regardless why the divorce happened
think about it as a man you could have a House a wife 3 kids a good paying job but one day your wife decides she's not happy nothing you can do about it she divorces you kicks you out of your house you can no longer see your kids every day you lose half your money and stuff and have to pay her every week
and the worst part ? eventually she will get a new boyfriend move him into your house and now your paying for the privilege of the woman whos supposed to be your wife fucking some other dude in your house
@@kurtpunchesthings2411 (Not _literally,_ but I take your point.)
No problems with creating a family, just don’t want to lose one
Just dont be the typical dumbass looking to wed a girl from the bar and you’ll be fine.
I don't think everyone is built to be family people. Not everyone can nor should be a parent.
Also, some people are just slower than others. It's a big decision that many young people make then end up regretting 5 years later.
Prenup prenup prenup
Then don’t cheat on your wife. The top reason for divorce in America now is infidelity. It’s a STATISTICAL FACT.
@@nunyabizay9253Women cheat at the same rate or higher depending on the study. 😂

How’s it feel being wrong?
Being single is peaceful as hell
That peacefulness is gonna go over to loneliness unless you have a bunch if single male friends you hang out with everyday
You still are not comfortable with your self?
Yes
Damn right… I just passed the 200 hour mark of playing Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. I could never have done that if I had a girlfriend right now because she would be demanding my attention and affection to be on her and not gaming, lol. I’m focusing on Exercising, Education & Entertainment right now not romance.
Exactly! Marriage and kids is a ponze scheme.
I was unaware that single men can't write a book, make music, or make movies.
Word!!! After having gone through some shit, I just found out I'm much better off doing it alone. Now there's nothing I can't handle. Doesn't mean I won't have fulfilling non-romantic relationships. That's the reason I will.
I forgot to add who needs a RR? Can't you just take the train or the bus? Obviously public transport is something the US really lacks. And if you are a family/country man, can't you just chill with a Honda or a pickup? And if not, there are even many Benzes much cheaper than RR anyway 🙂
@@clarkbruce_swe91 Nope, there are no trains or buses out my way. If you don't have a car, things like Uber and Lyft are the only options.
@@laurendoe168 that's what I said. Being from Sweden, I find that disasterous. We have buses and bike lanes even in small towns.
@@clarkbruce_swe91 Here in the USA, buses are not "viable" - they're primarily paid for by municipal or county taxes; there's just not enough money to pay for it. People who ride buses are regarded as lower than "Women of Walmart" or "Florida Man." Nothing is close enough to get to by bicycle. Bike riders are regarded only slightly better than bus riders. I'm not saying this is "right", but it is a fact.
People don’t fear marriage or having kids; they fear having everything they’ve built and invested time and love into being destroyed right before their eyes.
Or taken away from them
Yes sir 💯
Divorce Rape.
EXACTLY!!
They are weak men! Not good for being part of power couple or have family with them.
Never enter into a contract with someone who is rewarded for breaking it.
Most underrated comment
Statistics show that women actually end up worse off after divorce. But I understand that if you only look at high profile celebrities and sports stars that are getting divorced and handing over tens of thousands of dollars a month in child support or millions in a divorce settlement, that would definitely skew your perception of who really ends up worse after a divorce, but for the average Americans, women generally suffer more financially by getting divorced.
@@wallihaley5194they suffer because they end not making as much as men after divorce.

I love being single. Zero drama.
Until you get old and alone.. Nothing sadder than a single old person with no kids or grands and everyone else is surrounded by love. I don't have drama in my life and have been married for 19 years so you get what you attract. People always assume it's the other person that's the problem. If you are always having drama, maybe it's you who is the problem in the relationship.

@@maskedninja876he means have kids. But again. I ain’t gettin married fuck that shit.

That’s what I’m doing. My girl right now one of the first things she said was as long as I’m taken care of I’ll ignore whatever you want me to. And the irony is that when you do find a girl like this you’re gonna love her so much you’ll fuck her brains out and barely ever wanna smash other girls anyway 😂 but marriage? Yeah hell nah we can have kids n shit but marriage ain’t happening just for a party one night on a wedding day LOL we throw down every weekend wtf you need a wedding for.

Yeah, I like to write but I'm not Bent outta shape with the thought of no one finding my stories after death. Usually a few hundred ppl or less come around to interact with me with each project.

**Marriage is a contract. Never sign a contract with someone who is incentivized to break it.**
Marriage is not a contract but a covenant. Secular society defined it as a contract. Contracts can be broken but covenants are perpetual.
@@r99995 the hard part now is finding a women who shares that belief
@@r99995 It's only a covenant if both sides believes it is. marriage in the west is a one sided legal contract. sign it if you want but you've been warned.
@@r99995 If you don't think marriage is a contract, try convincing a judge that you don't have to pay your alimony or child support.
@@Maurice181The judge did not create marriage. Marriage is between three persons God, a man and woman. A holy communion. Marriage is not just a physical union but also a spiritual one. Hence the reason, we have wedding ceremonies and say vows. Alimony/child support is a man-made process that were created to distort the true meaning of marriage.
Singleness is a gift from God. The freedom and availability to serve His kingdom will FAR outlast any worldly impact we can ever make.
Being single isn’t a gift from God. It’s just a choice. Now finding the right person who will be loyal and love you until you’re elderly, THAT is a gift from God.
@@Analymous nah, look at 1 Corinthians 7. Paul explicitly talks about singleness as a gift and while there’s nothing wrong or sinful about marriage, he says when you’re married you don’t have the freedoms to serve and witness for the kingdom that you do when you’re single. Again not to take away from marriage because raising a family and being head of the household is totally biblical and good, but the opportunities to serve and witness are infinitely less after marriage.

Absolutely true when you find the right person who isn't sticking around for your money
Or leaving for half of it.

@@Chad_Fairview You left out an important detail - women NEEDED men back in the day so they tolerated men that bored them. Today, women have replaced the husband with Big Government, and why wouldn't they? Why tolerate being submissive to a nice guy (those guys disgust women) when you can have the government handle everything from welfare and WIC to personal safety? Back in the times of your ancestors these social safety nets didn't exist and women were far more reliant on their man and thus had to tolerate him while she dreamt of better and more dominant men. There were also serious consequences for cheating as well, nowadays cheating is celebrated when women do it. Now that women can rely on the government for LAW ENFORCEMENT (which enforces "equality") and provisions (such as WIC and welfare or getting her own job) she has no need for a husband anymore and now she can pursue the men her ancestors dreamt of.
Don't believe me? Ask why AI girlfriends are becoming a thing. Most women apparently don't want most men and men are moving on to computers that simulate women that are pleasant to be around while women pursue the men of their dreams until they get old and become bitter cat women.
@@Chad_Fairview where do human souls come from?
@@Chad_Fairviewfunny, because I look at the hundreds of relatives and coworkers I've been around, the most dissatisfaction has come from marriage and kids in all but a handful.

I 100% disagree. Just because someone wants to stay single their whole life doesn't mean it's a bad thing. As long as you are happy who cares if you are married or not. Don't degrade people for what they want to do.

If you stay single, don't date, and just contribute to humanity there's nothing wrong with that. Not all of us should or will be married.
I swear, some of these pro-marriage arguments lately are just pure propaganda. They're almost THREATENED by the idea of men not needing a wife or kids to define their existence. Think of all those poor divorce lawyers and child custody courts losing money! The horror!

Divorce means he loses most of his shit. That's the risk. It's a very obvious risk.
The fact that he considers marital assets to be “his shit” shows how little value he places on a woman. That’s fine. He just shouldn’t marry.
@@cyclonejane It's easier for women to abuse the system. I know someone that was married a few years and after the divorce, his wife took half of the property and assets he had before meeting her.
@@kebas239 Anecdotes are not evidence, but that point aside, I would argue that the opposite is true in most cases.
It is usually the woman’s life that is compromised by marriage: her options for independence and self-reliance are cut off, particularly if she gives birth and particularly if she marries early in life.
Most divorces in the US are not settled in the way your friend’s case was. Generally, the assets of both parties are deemed marital assets and split down the middle. If wealthy men marry, they should have pre-nuptial agreements.
If the woman had the capacity to earn a living, pay her own bills, make decisions about her own life prior to marriage, she is at least better prepared to take care of herself as a divorcee. Unfortunately, most men like women younger than they are, so a female who has never taken care of herself is at a particular disadvantage. Sometimes that is reflected in the divorce settlement.
I will say this is partially untrue in the cases i've seen where it's the woman paying the alimony and the gentleman taking more than 1/2 of a 401k he did not contribute to. So divorce hit's both parties financially like a ton of bricks depending on the state you're living in. state by state. So the risk is there for both men and women.
@cyclonejane that's not anecdotal, that's the reality that married men face. It happens all the time. "It's cheaper to keep her" is a factual sentiment. The system is easily abused by women, and men know it. Plus there's the emotional risk of being cheated on, etc.

@@sweetxjc Firstly, your idea of a prenup is very wrong. It’s the equivalent of having a fire extinguisher. You don’t plan on there being a fire, but you’ll be glad you prepared for it if it happens. As well as the fact that 80% of divorces are initiated by women and every man who was ruined by it is shown no mercy in courts.
Second, Prenups aren’t worth the paper their written on and are often overturned by a judge for any number of reasons.
@@sweetxjcprenups are no good, and are an inside joke in divorce courts, and are constantly thrown out. The guys fear of divorce is totally correct, as American women are rewarded for divorcing and destroying their families.
@@sweetxjcprenup don't heal the pain, depression, disappointment, sadness, setback that comes with divorce.
@@sweetxjcmarriage is a legal construct. The dissolution is defined by the state and leans in the woman's favor by default.
Never sign a contract with someone who is incentivized to break it.
This is why I think prenups should be a part of marriage. It should be baked into the contract BEFORE you sign it.
@@kwithYES! I've said this for years!
Absolutely😊
Especially now that women have every opportunity to make their own lives. Divorce settlements used to be a parachute for women but now they’re retirement packages and secondary revenue streams.
Prenup? No, those can be thrown out by an activist/feminist judge.
What you need is an ESTATE. You put all your assets and cashflow into the Estate to legally protect it and keep it. Declare yourself as Trustee of the Estate, which means you legally control all financial dispersments as declared by the Estate.
No one can marry you, and legally take half an
Estate if its not already established as a clause within the Estate.
This is how the uber rich retain not just their cashflow, bu talso ALL of their assets, generation after generation.
Being single causes me to not have as much stress or worrying or having to think abt how I look 24/7
Getting with the wrong women will ruin your life 🤣
This guy has no clue how toxic the average woman is.
The world has no clue what ur talking about. Stay out of dating sites and club maybe ull find a normal instead of average people
Every woman lve ever gotten involved with has shit me
For Real !
Take some accountability for you
"western woman". Y'all need to move abroad. The pickins are much better - family values, not woke, value beauty over career.
A lot of men ask me why I’m not married, not one woman has asked me that in my entire life.
Same here but not one single woman asked me. Married women asked me.
Underrated comment. Probably just went over a lot of heads
Woman here, asking: why you are not married? 😂
I mean I thought this was all pretty obvious stuff here
Everyone and their grandmother asks me why I’m not married. I usually respond “just lucky, I guess” - but it’s an uncomfortable question for a lot of people. I’ll always remember a guy in Germany who asked me, I was only in my 20s at the time, and I said “maybe I haven’t met the right person” He shot back “Maybe no one wants you”
I turned 40 yesterday and am a virgin single male Christian man, 6"2, bald but ok looking (I think), well travelled, level headed, sociable. It's been 8 years since I was properly with someone and that only lasted a few months and the time before that I was in an abusive relationship for a year going back 10 years ago now.
I can't believe it's been this long since I was with someone and I'm rapidly thinking it is over for me. What's more is your confidence takes a huge knock and you convince yourself that something must be wrong with you. In my case, it could be the brown skin or the baldness or perhaps I just don't have enough going for me. Women's expectations are so high now that you can't just be an average man.
I used to regularly date but even that isn't happening much anymore. I do think I'm not meeting enough women on a regular basis, so the only way I "meet" women are through dating apps. I still seem to get matches but it goes nowhere. They usually just disappear. I rarely even meet someone I want to pursue. The few I do aren't into me and the ones that are, I'm not into.
I keep praying and seeking God over this but there still appears to be no progress or hope and as a result, it's no surprise I've ended up in a rut of bitterness. Worse still I don't want to descend into hating women.
It may not be too late to meet someone but with age my options are limited and time is running out. I am worried about being left on the shelf and being alone for the rest of my life and dying alone and just ending my life as a bitter old man. My parents are getting older and eventually I will have no one around me.
Make sure your kids are good and not a holes. They represent you and your fam.
Well Ben Shapiro is a major a hole so his kids are going to need tons of therapy when they are adults. Bad father.
If marriage was more of a commitment than a contract I would consider it.
Indeed.
You went deep😂
I think a contract is a commitment that has been clearly defined and made official, so that the parties can actually be held accountable.
@@life_lab_chroniclesstrange form of accountability that punishes one side and overwhelmingly rewards the other when the contract is violated.
But maybe you meant "accountability" as in the state has the ability to access your accounts and allocate your funds as they see fit... which is more accurate.
Let's call a spade a spade. That contract has 0 to do with accountability/commitment and everything to do with money and resources. If there was no financial aspect, the government wouldn't have an interest in being involved in it.
@@austinjrbit "punishes" the one who makes more money. Let her make more money if you are so concerned
Even King David and the apostle Paul recommended the single life because the best life you can live is one where God is number one 🙏🕊️
Amen. However, in todays debauched world of sexual immorality I’d say it’s pretty much par for the course to get married at this point to avoid temptation.
Amen 🙏🏽 Agreed, as being single, you tend to always put God first in everything and not concern yourself with pleasing your wife/husband. Marriage though is a gift from God and may not be meant for everyone but as long as you living a moral single life🙏🏽
Yes true, but you know tge apostkes were unlearned men and unwanted low lifes, it made it easier for them,playing the devils advocate. Youre right i know that scripture, it's just that today people have of always wondered and criticized and even said that I'm gay or suspected im gay, that can be and has been problematic, i even quit a job because people thought that, adter all im a good lookibg guy and " yiure nit married, hmm he must be gay" more times thsn you can count on your hands
Imagine relying on another person to be happy. Sounds emotionally draining. I really feel sorry for people who can't enjoy their own company.
being happy and successful is absolutley more sensible than risking your life being destroyed.
Marriage isn’t always a bed of roses. A lot of people are better single than enter a toxic relationship
I mean, I completely agree, but counter point. If every woman you meet is toxic and not worthy of marriage, maybe the problem is you.
I have two people in my life whom I love dearly, both of whom are going through a divorce. The first one got tired of having sex with the same woman, and filed for divorce. He spent the past 4 years complaining about his wife, how evil she is, etc. I finally had a long and serious heart to heart with him about his decisions, and at the end of it he admitted that everything in their marriage was actually a result of him refusing to work on their marriage and really only being interested in banging new women. He still blames her for everything, but when it’s only me and him with no one else around, he admits to me it was all him and had nothing to do with her.
The other guy simply refused to deal with any issues in his marriage for fifteen years. He also cheated, but he thinks no one knows. So he goes around talking about how his bitch ex cheated and left him. To this day he has no idea that everyone knows he’s actually the one who cheated, because he didn’t realize the way he did it made it incredibly easy to be caught.
We don’t live in a society of men. We live in a society of petulant children, boys and girls both. But if you walk around smelling poop all day, check your own shoe. My wife is incredible.
@@mr.doctorcaptain1124well, that’s good you recognize we’re a society of petulant children, boys and girls alike. It’s easy to walk everywhere and NOT have poop on your shoe while smelling it.
I found someone who is amazing but we’re still not getting married. I don’t want her getting stuck with bankruptcy or my medical bills if I die from cancer and a whole host of other reasons. Spousal privilege and the tax benefits aren’t worth it yet and may never be.
He says it's all true what this guy is saying? I thought He believed in God / Jesus Christ? What he says is a false approach to life as if God does not exist.
_And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him _*_deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. For whosoever will save his life shall lose it;_*_ but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it. For _*_what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?_*

Ask someone who isn't worth 400 million making 15 an hour why they have no kids.
A good woman can raise her husband up and help him to mold himself into somebody who CAN support her and several children. She can be his coach and his queen and make him into the hero for his family. If she makes it so the only thing he needs to do is make money, cash won’t be the problem. It’ll be time instead.
Women have been told that we are simple creatures that only want sex and food. What we really want is to be the hero of our story. All day, every day we get rejected by everyone and everything. We are told we are monsters and at the same time that we are weak. But I’ve never seen a woman 900 feet deep inside a mine collecting the resources needed to make all the things that make our lives possible.
@@john-paulsilke893 Cool story bro. This isn’t Princess Bride or some movie though. Real life has divorce rates at above 50%. Lol

Thank you! I cant stand these millionaires giving "life" advise or marriage advice. Dude, the only reason your wife is "loyal"(no such thing) is because you give her something that she NEEDS, not because youre a "great guy". Women dump great guys all the time.

The biggest problem being a single man is losing friends who get married and disappear.
Thats not a true friend , Im married with married friends , we find time , once in a while.

The biggest problem with getting married is losing time to spend with single friends who are doing things you can't.
yea but on the bright side over 70% of them will be back
I watched my friends get married, divorced, and bankrupt before disappearing.
Being single is peacefull no one to lie to you cheat on you and hurt you.
I’m 58 year old, never married, no kids and for the life of me I can’t see why today this is so looked down upon. When I was a kid growing up it was common for there to be older people and even elderly people in the neighborhood who never married or had kids and it was never questioned or looked down upon they were just people who never married or had kids. Both my parents had cousins in their families who never married or had kids. In my own case I was able to be full time caregiver to my Dad in his last days and I can’t see how I could’ve done that married with a family to support. Of course I believe in marriage and family but we have to get out of the mindset that a lifelong single adult has nothing to contribute to society.
You can still make things that outlives you while being single, it's your choice how you want to live
Who cares anyway, ill be dead so I wont know much difference of what outlives me
Good point,the reality is though that in one generation no one cares anyway
Agree and I think it's pretty egotistical to even want to live forever or be remembered long inti the future.
We were not put on this earth to leave a legacy, we are all here to learn and evolve as people.
@@Riosgirl98so what where we put on this earth for, its simple really worship one god and be good live a good life where you don’t forget Allah and then die and if you where good you will be rewarded

Nah, one day you will disagree with this and realize you were a coward.
It is about culture. Find your great wife that has proper culture.

Positive arguments for staying single?
No divorce.
No alimony.
No life breaking child support.
No loss of kids.
No responsibility for kids...
No constant emotional, mental, physical turmoil.
No loss of everything you built, invested your entire life in.
No domestic abuses.
No suicide.
Can have wondeful experiences.
Can have wonderful experiences with multiple woman, not just one thatll eventually turn into a flesh prune on make-up.
And most of all, no loss of the dog.
Shit, just off the top of my head theres like 10+.
You can do all that even if you're single
Absolutely !
There's one very, very good argument for being single and it's called "Dating in 2023".
Men ruined it

It’s not even the money aspect that’s holding a lot of men back. It’s the fact that if we get married, we surrender everything to that woman and if we pick the wrong one, which statistically we probably will, then we’re screwed when THEY are no longer happy, they divorce us, take half our crap, and then make us fight tooth an nail just to see our kids 2 weekends a month
Everybody brings up the divorce statistics. How about instead you bring up the divorce statistics of deeply religious couples who didn't engage in fornication and have 3+ children? People with a wrong view on life ruin the hope for young people. Listen to those who succeed and learn from them, not from those who failed.

Its one thing to choose to be single as Paul recommended, but to say its too risky is ridiculous.
I never really cared about building anything that outlives me. I just want to enjoy my life. That's why I'm 35 and single and really happy with the peace and quiet and freedom I have.
