    Why aren’t more Millennials getting married? Well…maybe it’s because weddings are expensive, and they have student loan payments to worry about. Or maybe it’s because women aren’t attracted to nice men who were raised in a feminist society. Or maybe it’s because men realize that they don’t need to “buy the cow” when they can get the “milk” for free.

    Take a good look at modern American women: they have heavy makeup, multi-coloured hair, nasty attitudes, slutty attire, tattoos everywhere, and feminist/misandrist indoctrinated minds. They play the “victim card” whenever they get caught up in a bad situation, they eat super-sized fast food meals, and they cuss like sailors. Raise your hand if you’re excited about getting married to an empowered, demanding, verbally abusive, entitled woman.

    This is the ideal marriage for a woman: she sits on the couch, watches lame TV shows, and updates her Facebook profile. Then she spends $100 at the mall. On the weekends, she goes to the dance club (with her hive and without her husband), gets intoxicated, shakes her booty on the dance floor, and flirts with single men. Although she hasn’t cooked or cleaned all day, she’s too tired to have sex with her husband—who spends 10 to 15 hours a day working so she can live in a nice house and have an easy lifestyle. Eventually, she’ll get bored and blame her unhappiness on her husband. She may even open up a dating profile so she can get “likes” from Chad and Tyrone.

    The deal is: you do it all for her, and she does nothing for you. That is what modern marriage is all about. The more empowered a woman is, the less attractive she becomes to eligible bachelors who have a healthy self-esteem. A woman who can’t be told what to do is not an ideal bachelorette for a man who wants to be the king of his castle. This is what the wedding industry investors fail to understand.

    By the way, I checked out the David’s Bridal website and some of their wedding dresses cost as much as $1500. That’s a lot of money for an outfit that’s only going to be worn once. A lot of grooms rent a tux for 100 bucks and that’s it. That makes more sense to me.

    This video inspired me to write about this topic:

    "I saw that there comes a point, in the defeat of any man of virtue, when his own consent is needed for evil to win-and that no manner of injury done to him by others can succeed if he chooses to withhold his consent. I saw that I could put an end to your outrages by pronouncing a single word in my mind. I pronounced it. The word was ‘No.’" (Atlas Shrugged)

    $1500 per dress is cheap. I see where some go for thousands, rings for tens of thousands, event goes for much more. All for one day.

    In 2007, my wedding was about $15k for the event alone, and the dress was the cheapest part as it was used and only a few hundred

    No longer can we walk away, we must run. Remove the motive power.

    Also, maybe because at one point it was the responsibility of the bride and her family to finance the wedding, including the bridal gown, not the groom’s responsibility.

    lso, maybe because at one point it was the responsibility of the bride and her family to finance the wedding, including the bridal gown, not the groom’s responsibility.

    Also, I think the divorce rate is common knowledge, men are more aware of the damages of divorce since they watched their father’s and friends go through it. And then there is the fact that a huge portion of the single women have kids in tow. This not only makes them less desirable, but it makes to have a ‘white wedding’ when the bride is clearly not a virgin and less budget for an expensive wedding.

    Ok. Then do it.

    Thats the whole point. Relationships are not about having to ‘handle’ people.

    Tells you a lot though what women think relationships are all about. Men having to deal with their s~~~ and like it. For the scarce few good times you get.

    Nopers.

    Women want everything, but want responsibility and accountability for nothing.

    I do think a good relationship would require some handling of the downside, since no one is perfect. However, the attitude should be an understanding that it’s a fault and appreciate and apologize to the person for having to deal with it. It shouldn’t be viewed as a deficiency in the person who’s having to deal with your crap.

    And as well, women don’t look at this equally. No woman ever said “If I can’t handle your worst, I don’t deserve your best”. No, an episode dealing with your worst initiates operation monkey branch.

    Ok. Then do it.

    When I visit my mom, she sometimes has “Say yes to the dress” on. It’s a show about mostly bridezilla getting a wedding dress. They go way over budget and the grooms/victims-to-be are complete pussies. Increasingly, however, guys aren’t avoiding marriage because of the milk/cow truth (thanks, feminism for that small favor), but also because they see what a clusterf~~~ game marriage has become for the guy, which is perhaps a negative avoidance or juice/squeeze proposition.

    We just don't realize life's most significant events while they're happening. Back then, I thought, "Well, there'll be other days". I didn't realize that that was the only day. - "Moonlight" Graham

    And to which the MGTOW responds “I don’t want your worst when your best was over 10-20 years ago, see ya!”

    Millenial men are being left behind in society.

    Women now are 2/3 of university graduates… with higher degrees and affirmative action they have easy street into higher-paying jobs, and rapid promotions.

    We know that women are hypergamous and loathe to “marry down”. So millenial women have f~~~ed their chads, and began to hit the wall en masse about 5 years ago. And yet it will be a cold day in hell before they marry down… Colder than their frozen eggs.

    Meanwhile, millennial dudes have seen their grandfathers, fathers and older brothers divorce raped (that’s if they had more family than their single mom). And say — f~~~ that

    No wonder marriage is dying out– it should already be extinct.

    I'm going my own way. Maybe I'll see you there.

    Are they really? Women hold a majority of student debt, and the average millennial male still out earns the average millennial female, just by a smaller margin than prior generations. Most of the women with degrees I know go into low paying fields or just end up with complete bulls~~~ degrees and are pretty much f~~~ed in life unless they find some beta bux to pay their tab for them. Meanwhile I know quite a few more guys who went into fields like plumbing, electrical, auto body repair, HVAC, etc who don’t have degrees but make above average wages and don’t have any student debt either.

    I have to believe the real divorce rate is at least 80 percent. Maybe even 90.

    Anyway… starting from one penny… wedding dresses on ebay

    Filing for bankruptcy means they plan on staying in business. They just want to wipe their credit clean and not pay their creditors. So when it’s all over, all of the food in the grocery store will go up by 5 cents for you and me.

    When you factor in the ones divorced and remarried, I’d say at least 70%, easy.

    The odds of getting divorced increase based on the number of her sexual partners, how strong a faith/belief in afterlife justice and sanctity of marriage, if mom and dad stayed married, and how she was raised, if she was disciplined by parents and it took, etc.

    It is true that there is an anti-male bias in education, and that affirmative action hiring excludes men.

    But it’s also true that most millennial males don’t want to go into stem fields anyway. All I hear is ‘I wanna be in a band’, or that they are a ‘full time eco activist’ (ie welfare sponger).

    What we are seeing now is the rotten fruit of the rotten, single-mother tree.

    All you have to do to show any man why marriage is bulls~~~?

    1. Show a man the rate of women screwing around on their Husbands. It’s almost 99%

    DONE.

    You are all alone. If you have been falsely accused of RAPE, DV, PLEASE let all men know about the people who did this. http://register-her.net/web/guest/home

    Hi Beer, good points. I’m no expert, but I have seen several reports like this that indicate that young women are now out-earning young men:
    Women in their 20s earn more than men of same age, study finds

    But I also see many others that say this is not yet the case — just the gap is closing. So I guess it’s more correct to say that the trend appears to be going in that direction.
    From my own observations, I think from early childhood onward, millennial women were more advantageously positioned for opportunity than millennial men. Most of the women I know are in laws, finance, STEM, government, military where they are preferential hires, pushed ahead of more deserving male peers, and more women are continuously being begged to join. Even in branches which are already majority female. Millennial men may indeed still make more in aggregate, but there are no preferential hiring policies for men, and men are working harder (longer hours) for those earnings.

    Coming back to David’s Bridal bankruptcy … marriage is a bad deal for millennial men… a bad deal for men of any age!

    I'm going my own way. Maybe I'll see you there.

    Good, I’m glad bridal companies are going under. Men don’t need women; it’s women who need us, even though they have a hard time admitting it. A man can do just fine without a wife and my dad (divorced in 1993 and never remarried) is a perfect example. This is how I want to live; single, making whatever money I can and putting it towards living my own way, which isn’t very much. And I don’t care if women out earn me. I make money for own benefit, not for anyone else’s.

    Women only out earn men because they work in the government, which always pays ridiculously high for for doing useless work.
