Challenge accepted!

I suggested that Marriage could be compared to a coin toss, and the risk was greater than the reward.

I asked “Would you bet a $1 on a coin toss?”, the answer was yes by everyone.

I asked “Would you bet $1,000?”, only a few said yes.

“What about $100,000?”  Everybody shook their head “No”.

I said “That’s why men don’t want to get married, they are betting EVERYTHING on a 50/50 coin toss.  The risk to too high”.

The men are nodding in agreement, and the women are protesting “The divorce rate isn’t 50%!”

I said “Google it.”  End of discussion.  Pouting ensues.

I shall bear that one in mind just in case the subject might come up in a conversation I may be involved with. Good call, man.

Ned

I'd rather die a natual death with a clear MGTOW conscience somewhere off the grid than one within "modern" civilisation with a big stress mark on my forehead and a couple of dozen tubes plugged into my body. Back to the plantation..? Me..? Hey, literally: I won't ever fucking kid myself...YZERLMNTSIC

I really think MGTOW.com should be a medium for us to train each other on the best comebacks to any questions or situations women put us through.

We need easy, well defined arguments like this.

I was recently challenged on my anti marriage view – but the time I outlined the “pro’s & cons” – the stupid women had all started with the eye rolling and, well I “lost the crowd”…..

Women, have an extremely limited span of attention – so if you need to make a point they will understand, it needs to be simple, factual & something less complicated than a potato peeler.

Again,  well said XSDBS.

Rofl…this is true.  Its like a few weeks back at work, I had a delicious brownie smothered in hot fudge and whipped cream, and topped off with a cherry.  One of my coworkers tried to make me make some stupid bet for the brownie.  If I lost I had to give him the brownie.  If I won…well I got to keep the brownie, the exact same outcome as simply refusing the bet and not even having to worry about putting my precious brownie on the line.

A coin toss is a good analogy to keep it simple, but in reality betting double or nothing on a coin toss is actually a better bet than marriage considering marriage is more like break even or nothing.

Note, the other player will either go all-in with more chips, the same amount of chips, or less chips with the same number possible outcomes. You can only win as many chips as you put in and you can only lose as many chips as the other player has (if you have more).

In the game of Marriage, a man moves all of his chips into the middle of the the table with 3 possible outcomes. Bust(lose it all in divorce), split(stay where you and even lose some of your stack due to rake), or lose a  number of chips due to alimony and/or child support payments(I inserted this third option to represent wealthy men). The point is, you will never end the hand with more chips than you went all-in with no matter how many times you try.

A woman is a player who can see your cards and can foresee the flop, turn & river every time. No matter what happens, she will always win.

Now tell me fellas, do you want to go all-in?

Marriage is the disease, divorce is the cure. MGTOW is the vaccine.

If you “win”, then you get a lifetime of silent misery and cowed obedience to Mrs Mood Swing.

Society asks MGTOWs: Why are you not making more tax-slaves?
