Marriage is low benefit but high cost, high risk but low reward.

I think guys have figured out that women, like California real estate are priced way too high

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

Damn, the rabbit hole goes deep.

We will survive.

It goes to show that not all hope is lost and that men are not stupid.

A MGTOW is a man who is not a woman's bitch!

You have to ask yourself, why did people get married before? Through out history. Most people were religious, and thought if you didn’t do it, you’d burn in hell. Even religious people these days, don’t think you will go to hell if you have premarital sex. Before that, marriage was something that the aristocracy did, as more of a business arrangement. We all know about arranged marriages to secure alliances, land, money, resources, ect between monarchs.

Recently there’s been this whole thing about marriage is true love, yada yada. Relatively recently, the last hundred years or so. Hell, people just assume that it’s always been this way. Did you know wedding rings weren’t even a thing a hundred years ago?

So, with the world changing, why is marriage still relevant? It’s like saying your favorite color isn’t your favorite color unless you sign this piece of paper saying so. It’s adding beaurocracy to biology, and marriage is a load of bulls~~~. It’s an old archaic institution, and I’m glad to see it go, of course women are not.

Feminism is a movement where opinions are presented as facts and emotions are presented as evidence.

You know what I’d like to see:
Him – will you marry me? I got you that ring you like!
Her – Yes of course. How sweet! I saved up and got you the ATV you wanted.

No, it only goes one way. And it doesn’t get better. You’d be lucky to get her to spend $50 on gifts for you and it’s s~~~ she put no thought into because really, she has no idea what makes you tick.

The religious aspect is largely just window dressing. The basic reason why people used to get married is because marriage used to be a mutually beneficial exchange of reproductive capacity for labor capacity. Both the man and the woman had responsibilities in the marriage and both reaped rewards.

Not any more. In modern Marriage v2.0 the man still has all his traditional responsibilities but receives none of his traditional rewards, while the woman still receives all her traditional rewards but has no responsibilities whatsoever.

So the real mystery is not why aren’t men getting married any more.

The real mystery is why some few men are still falling for it.

You know guys, when I was married mid-life crisis hit me at an early age. F~~~ I was drowning. It didn’t matter what the hell I did I could not get traction in my life. No savings, no hope of ever getting financially safe. The now ex-wife, a SAHM and slob, spent every cent I earned, demanded more kids than I wanted, didn’t know how to discipline them, complained bitterly when I was doing at least half the housework as well as all the yard work, repairs and maintenance.

I turned inward and took a inventory of my life. What I saw was me being in the same f~~~ing place 10, 20 and 30 years from now. No savings, nothing. It was then that my mid-life crisis hit. Within one day I pulled the plug. I just up and packed a few things and told the ex-wife I’m done, and left.

don’t underestimate infowars guys
this is how I found MGTOW – through their series on war on men, women and families and social engineering.
they opened my eyes on emasculation and demonization of men
I took it from there and ended up here.

Your post reminds me of my most recent ex, tied for being the most s~~~ty ex award. She made a statement that I better not get her a gift certificate for her birthday and alluded to the idea that I would be a piece of s~~~ if I did. The bitch had no hobbies, no plans to improve herself, no plans for the future, etc. I didn’t know what the f~~~ she would want so I asked her and she basically didn’t tell me anything but gave the impression that it better be something good. lol

But for my birthday I hinted that I would like ammo, a hand gun, tools for my new roll away, etc.Just something that I want or need. She told me that she wouldn’t get me any of those things. Her and I broke up so I never got my birthday present from her but I found out that it was going to be something f~~~ing lame where she wanted to waste money on taking me to dinner with just her and me in a limo to somewhere in the bay area (CA). I had already told her that I get a group of friends together on my birthday each year and we go to dinner somewhere local, hit a bar, and then come back for a late BBQ session and more drinks at my house. So, not that it mattered but she was going to try to strip me of what I wanted to do on MY birthday and waste her money on something we could do cheaper and better locally. So basically she was doing what SHE wanted to do for MY birthday and get ME what SHE wanted.

So to tie this back in to the topic of marriage, you can pretty much see how the entire marriage would have worked. I would have gotten the shaft, and she would have tried to walk all over me.

Of course the reason why we are broken up now is because I always stood my ground. If things weren’t even I wouldn’t stand for it.

Robert Hallam….

That took guts to see what was coming and do what you had to do. Sometimes all the warning signs are there early on and you have accept it. Hope you got to see your kids after the divorce. That is the worst part of it in my opinion….worrying about kids and what is going to happen.
