Let me explain this again for the inattentive: As soon as you are married, SHE OWNS HALF OF EVERYTHING LEFT AFTER TAXES ARE PAID ON THE MONEY YOU EARN, AS SOON AS YOU EARN IT!

I don’t think that fully explains the situation. When you get married, you are now essentially a single financial entity. You both effectively own 100% of the financial entity. 50% only comes into play when the divorce happens. While married, she has the legal right to spend 100% of the income in whatever means she sees fit. She certainly is not required to stop at 50%. She can spend money on services and material that cannot be divided away from her upon divorce. Worse yet, she can leverage and manipulate her financial standing within the marriage entity to control his financial decisions.

Just to give a personal example.. before I got married, I had a paid off car, a townhome without about $40k in equity, a solid 401k, and no credit card debits. I was persuaded to move to a larger home upon marriage, and buy a ton of new furniture. I needed to sell my car for a more family friendly one very soon after. CC debt started steadily start growing. My 401k was now split in half and I was contributed to it much less. The damage to myself as a financial assets was much greater than a 50% loss.

Regarding the article in general, it’s a social science article. And social science isn’t a science at all, as it only takes states and makes the poor assumption that correlation is causation, and further assumes the motivation behind the causation. I find it rather telling that the downside of being LBTQ is always portrayed as caused by societies treatment of LBTQ. If society only treated LBTQ better, those downsides would disappear…according to them. However, when it comes to being a bachelor, all the downsides are considered to be caused by the bachelor himself, not because of how society treats the bachelor.

Ok. Then do it.

Yahoo? Tell the Gritty TRUTH? And where does most of their MONEY come from? Who Uses YAHOO?
Makes me wonder why the HELL we keep thinking about these places as News? Think about it. Why is it that a Talking Monkey and his pals happen to tell more real news then ANY news outlet online?
Think about it. If you wanted to get half truths and Biased opinions so far out of the truth, ANY LARGE ONLINE SOURCE WILL DO.
There is a reason why there have always been small independent news papers. And why so many of them were bought out that had any major following.
I still don’t understand why a site like ours even takes other sites seriously. They have about as much credibility as Fat Free Lard.

Per media bias you mention, that’s why I refer to them as the gynocentric media. This is who they write for, their target paying and inculcated audience. you don’t write stuff to p~~~ off the people you need to keep happy and their rationalization hamsters, rationalizing. Their pieces give validation and evidence for their rationalization. And further the overall meme/theme of women good, men bad.

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

Reminded me of an excellent video by Barbarossa where he goes in depth about this. . . .

“Not being the alpha male breadwinner just ain’t sexy”.
There’s something really fantastic about knowing how you (men) are viewed in the world.Your “sexiness” is based on what bills of hers you can pay.

He’s screwed, this is a common marriage, it was the life of the dad of my ex-girlfriend who wanted me to be like her father. He was a doctor, with wife and 3 daughters and always in debt.

Men are bread WINNERS.Women are bread EATERS.
The video above (11:25) breaks down the unmarried man has 36,000 hours more free time to himself.

Per reference to time, 36000 hours is roughly 17 years of 8 hour days. Or almost 6 years of 24 hour days.

Sexy == husbank/atm

Biblically, sexy == provider

And it also illustrates a fundamental position all women operate from, or would like to: you, man, take care of me.

And they wonder why we don’t see them as equals and just bigger children.

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

Plus the debt they often have is more expensive than face value and comes with an opportunity cost of losing out on gains of money you could have otherwise invested.

Let’s just say one has 100k worth of debt at an average rate of 6% you pay back over 10 years…you end up paying out about 1,110 per month for a grand total of 133k. Now instead let’s assume you just stay single, invest that 1,110 per month, and average a 6% per year return over that 10 year period. You’d have just shy of 210k saved. I’d much rather be looking back 10 years from now saying hells yeah…I banked 200k than looking back 10 years from now saying alright…I finally dug out of the hole I married into.

So realistically with all those strong, independent, educated women out there carrying loads of debt around…if you are stupid enough to marry them you pay for their s~~~ty choices prior to even meeting you as the financial merger of marriage makes you responsible for their debt payments. During the marriage you are forced to pay for whatever lifestyle they want to live as they have full access to your cash and credit. After the marriage you’ll lose 50%+ in divorce plus potential future earnings through alimony/child support.

Marriage today f~~~s a man out of enjoying the fruits of his hard work he’s already earned in his past, is earning in the present, and a lot of the times even what he will earn in the future. Unless the world gets tipped so upside down that men are someday treated like a 1950s housewife and we are given the option to divorce rape and walk out with the kids anytime we want…there is absolutely no downside to the bachelor life compared to modern marriage.

If make $40k I could have well over $1k to spend on myself, after bills.

If a married man makes $56k (40% more) he might get to spend $200 a month purely on himself – if he’s lucky, after bills.

It’s f~~~ing ridiculous just quoting stats without any further analysis.

I’ve made over a million in my lifetime. The month I walk away will be my first cash positive time ever. Sure I’ve got accounts she knows nothing about, today. Discovery will give her half of those too.

I don’t question the lifetime bachelors, and I love my kids/grandkid, but I know I’m tangled right now in something I want nothing to do with.

I would have been a lifelong bachelor if I hadn’t met my virgin pumpkin almost three decades ago. Regret can be expensive. Live your best life. That means unattached, single, and free.

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.
