This is another, in what I expect to be a long list, of articles supporting marriage.
Note that its author is female. As if any married man would bother.
“You know that old ball and chain joke from men about marriage? More than ever, today’s young men question the value of marriage to increase their happiness and well-being.
The U.S. marriage rate has dropped dramatically (from 70 percent in to 50 percent in four decades) and marriage is getting replaced with new habits of long-term dating, late marriage and long-term cohabitation.
I’ve watched my husband of 36 years, my son (married at age 28), and my son-in-law (married at age 25) easily embrace the contradiction to that joke — that in fact marriage deeply enhances their lives and they would rather be married than single.
Young women have their own reactions toward marriage, but a new study on “Men & Marriage” sheds fresh insight on the attitudes of men towards marriage. “Science could not be clearer: on average, men enjoy more money, better sex, and better health when they are married,” cite Institute for Family Studies researchers Brad Wilcox and Nicholas Wolfinger.
The report, “Men and Marriage: Debunking the Ball & Chain Myth” found that:
· Married men earn between 10 and 40 percent more than otherwise comparable single men.
· That the quality of married sex trumps the quality of unmarried sex.
· Men who get and stay married live almost 10 years longer and are more likely to experience better physical and emotional health.
Better Health: “Simply put,” the report says, “the companionship, the support, and even the nagging that men get from their wives in marriage translate into better physical health.” It is partly from better eating and encouragement to get medical care, but social and emotional support also translates in better mental health—married men have less depression and more happiness. Our immune systems function better when we have support from loved ones.
More Money: Married men earn more, save more, and generally have access to a second income. The typical fifty-something married man has three times the assets of his unmarried peer, about $167,000 compared to $36,000 for never-married and $48,500 for divorced.
Better Sex: The National Health and Social Life Survey reports that “51 percent of married men reported they were extremely satisfied with their sex lives, compared to 39 percent of cohabiting and 36 percent of single men.”
What brings success? The report notes that a majority of first divorces are initiated by women and so it offers some advice for men.
“Men who do their best to hold down a stable job, who don’t abuse drugs or alcohol, who are sexually faithful, who attend religious services regularly with their wives, and who make a regular effort to be emotionally engaged in their marriage are less likely to divorce.”
Since success and joy feel so much better than failure, begin with the end in mind. Recognize that having a successful marriage takes work, but that effort is worth it.
As we begin National Marriage Week USA (Feb. 7 to 14th), men should know that there is a path to greater happiness, wealth and well-being.”
Guys, take heart – you may think marriage is just the “ball and chain,” but it can make your life better!

Sounds like someone is trying very hard to sell something….and we aren’t buying.

Anonymous13We did marry and then got destroyed by some bitch who took vows to love and honour us in sickness and in health. They lied in their vows to love us just like they lie in court to destroy us.
F~~~ing snakes.
We’ve left the plantation and we’re never coming back.
Ahh, I read this and spit out my coffee all over my screen. Thanks for the laugh!

It’s not worth it, nor was it ever worth it to begin with.
All that money will be going to my wife, who will spend it on s~~~ we don’t need, putting me in more debt, and forcing me to work longer.
Better to save that money for myself and give it to someone who needs it.

Meh
Who cares if they are afraid of the bogiewoman.
The only reason I can come up with in a dispassionate tone for the failing of marriage/relationships/women in general is that they are not worth the effort or suffering. Why bother?There was a time in my life when I gave a fuck. Now you have to pay ME for it
In 100 years society went from 1 divorce in 50 marriages to 1 divorce in 2 marriages.
Knowing that man is the one that is looking down the barrel of a gun during and after divorce, … it seems sane to just walk away. Feel bad for men that didnt have mgtow and other resources to avoid marriage disaster though.

THE END.
^ That is all she deserves as a response. The rest below is for other men and we will deconstruct her feces article for them now.
“More than ever, today’s young men question the value of marriage”
There is no “value” for a man to sign a marriage contract, and you know it.
“….to increase their happiness and well-being”.
Come again? Didn’t quite hear you. Can you say it louder for everyone?
“.The U.S. marriage rate has dropped dramatically (from 70 percent in to 50 percent in four decades) “.
Yes and is currently at a 93-year low and everyone – including you – knows why.
I’ve watched my husband of 36 years, my son (married at age 28), and my son-in-law (married at age 25) easily embrace the contradiction to that joke — that in fact marriage deeply enhances their lives and they would rather be married than single.
Yes some cats prefer to live indoors too! They are basically furb~~~~ with a broken spirit that look out at a world they will never enjoy, but technically, they would “prefer” it. Newly released criminals sometimes prefer prison too.
Married men earn between 10 and 40 percent more than otherwise comparable single men.
False.
A study by the University of Florida reports that men who have “sexist” attitudes make $8,500 more per year than their pussy-whipped counterparts. That’s enough money to buy 42 decent prostitutes! 60 if you live near UCSD! In terms that even a woman could understand: that’s enough money to have sex almost every week – which your husband is DEFINITELY not getting.
We know this because 50% of UK mothers lie about the paternity.
Take that all of you obnoxious, uptight school marms out there with sticks up yer butts and imaginary psychology degrees in your hands. The University of Florida just proved that chauvinists have no trouble getting our gear greased.
Since success and joy feel so much better than failure, begin with the end in mind.
Now that was funny!
Happy endings are just stories that haven’t finished yet.
Recognize that having a successful marriage takes work, but that effort is worth it.
Is that a proposal? Where’s the ring?
Since we don’t even know you, it had better be NICE. Minimum 5 carats and up!! Get busy. Go to work for at least one year. Save $25,000 after taxes and go blow it on a diamond mined by a child and mounted on a platinum band… and then KNEEL DOWN when you bring it to me and make the experience theatrical, creative and unforgettable and don’t forget to ask me nicely….. and then maybe after you get a load across your face, I will BEGIN to think about it.
Not a day sooner. No matter what bulls~~~ you type.
If you keep doing what you've always done... you're gonna keep getting what you always got.Oh she was serious . I just read it as a joke .

Excellent post Solomon !
But regarding people saying that marriage is bad, I would say that it’s not completely bad.
To men, well, it’s hell !But let’ see it trough the society and government eyes:
– Those single moms, WHO IS GONNA PAY FOR THAT ? Tax payers ? NO ! We need more brainwash to make some fool pay the bills.
– Those post wall cat ladies ? They are a bankruptcy machine, sooner os later they will bankrupt, we need someone responsible that will pay the bills, so the banks won’t suffer.
For society, must be a balance, someone will pay the bill, and the government don’t want this bill. So it will put right in the middle of the ass of any bluepill the accept to take care of the problem !
This post show how desperately people are about marriage, and how intense is the brainwash that they are trying to make. It’s bizarre, how they try to sell the image of perfect marriage, everyone is happy and everything else, when the numbers and just the “observe the environment” thing gives us the opposite idea.
Marriage is about government giving the problem to you to solve, and expecting you to pay the problem’s bills ! MGTOW is about you saying that you won’t be that fool !
I like how she left out who carries all the risk in a marriage and blamed it on “ball and chain” logic.
Ahh, I read this and spit out my coffee all over my screen.
Do I owe you a keyboard??

Because an unhappy married man is so eager to tell his wife, mother, or mother-in-law just on happy he is.
Yes, that’s sarcasm.
Married men earn between 10 and 40 percent more than otherwise comparable single men.
Comparable in what way? And how many of those unmarried were never targeted for marriage BECAUSE they make less. You can spin that whatever way you want. To me it proves hypergamy.
That the quality of married sex trumps the quality of unmarried sex.
Because a married man is going to tell someone the sex sucks. He also has a ton of experience to grade upon, right?
Men who get and stay married live almost 10 years longer and are more likely to experience better physical and emotional health.
Again, why is the because of marriage? Is it possible that women select healthier men for marriage? Is it possible that divorce negatively effects a man’s health? You can just as easily conclude evidence of hypergamy then you can any positive effects of marriage. There is nothing to suggest the positives were not already there in the man…and the women picked him because she knows it!
“Men who do their best to hold down a stable job, who don’t abuse drugs or alcohol, who are sexually faithful, who attend religious services regularly with their wives, and who make a regular effort to be emotionally engaged in their marriage are less likely to divorce.”
Well, no s~~~. What can a man do to 100% guarantee he doesn’t get a divorce? Never marry.
Ok. Then do it.

Dude. I used to work at Scripps Clinic on Torrey Pines just up the road from UCSD. I know exactly what you’re talking about. SW.

Marriage?
Only sellers not buyers. Ouch.

We all understood that, don’t worry Solomon !
But about the articleMarried men earn between 10 and 40 percent more than otherwise comparable single men.
I’ve seen a lot of material regarding to that, I’ve talked with a lot of friends about this very same issue. Well, as a single man, I can say, all my pay check is mine, completely mine, and I do what ever I want with that. I’m not forced into buying extremely big houses, buying useless stuff or anything like that. Besides women are used to spend far more money than they earn, they also don’t have a plan, they grow up but keep the “daddy’s girl”, expecting others to think for her in a long term, retirement, insurance, savings, etc…
Let’s talk about the psychological aspect of that, single men have nothing to lose, seriously, if you have a small saving account and you got fired, you can just relax for a while. If you are a married man, have wife, kids, and you are the bread winner of the house, imagine the pressure, imagine how you will feel ? Get more money because you want to, isn’t the same that get more money because you have to !
This point is very interesting to elaborate and discuss because it’s one of the key points of MGTOW to me. Because life is time, just that, more time I spend working, besides I loving my job, is less time living, and have a c~~~ who will make me lose my life working, so I won’t be able to enjoy it, is something that I can’t accept.
