Don't marry. Worthwhile essay.

Good essay. I loved this gem of a paragraph.

“Marriage can mean career slavery”

Anyone who says, “Slavery is dead” clearly has not contemplated the predicament of the average Western Husband, where a good paycheck can mean career slavery. Merriam-Webster’s English Dictionary defines slavery as “…(T)he state of a person who is a chattel (an item of tangible movable or immovable property) of another person.” If the husband earns enough to support both of them, he would be hard pressed to make an argument to preserve equality and have her continue working as he does. If the wife decides to stop working, the man who has been left holding the financial bag finds his options very limited. He may find himself working in a career that he hates, for abusive and exploitative management, excessively long hours, in a position that is physically dangerous or demanding, in an organisation that has no growth potential, far away from home. At this point, considering the corner he’s been painted into, he is often powerless to affect any positive, meaningful change in his own life. He may have been harbouring delusions that once his wife was able to return to work, he would be able to gain some flexibility to rectify some of the shortcomings in his own career. Perhaps changing careers or accepting a lower salary at a different firm in exchange for better hours, a shorter commute, or more fulfilling work. Nevertheless, the distinct reality is that he will continue to shoulder the financial responsibilities of his family alone. His reward for working hard and getting ahead is to become trapped into his career, and become a specialised beast of burden to an emotionally and financially dependent family. Does it really pay to work hard anymore and apply oneself to his full potential?

That’s a good read, add in if the Man makes some decent money the wife can just up and leave with a Lotto win, move on to the next sucker.

As I see it women are incentivised to move on.

Spot on Buller. There is no downside for the woman – she gets the kids, the car, the house, and the alimony, and is free to screw around. The guy gets the shaft.

Why anyone marries anymore is beyond me.

Love is just alimony waiting to happen. Visit mgtow.com.

This article does a great job of explaining to the established man why he shouldn’t marry. I’ve found precious few that relate to high school lovers that marry and many years later one or the other just quits.

I gave a star for the posting, it wasn’t anything I haven’t soused out on my own, but it bears repeating a thousand times if necessary.

I especially liked the last portion on what little a marriage contract with the state does to help a man in a long term relationship.

I failed to realize in my youth that I was the prize. I was going to work. I was going to earn. Little did I realize that due to feminism, that no longer meant I had to share. Road soon, Desert after.

Work hard for your self.Do not share with a female. They do not share in return.Any moron who gets married these days deserves what he gets.

Excellent post.

Feminism isn't about equality with men, it's about leverage over men.
