Yes, both genders can be "guilty"...of many things. I don't think anyone is denying or arguing that point, really. However this thread was started by a woman and it was mostly women responding, at first, so yes the main topic is men. Only one, that I can recall, said anything near really insulting...if it was. That gets taken as 'us' talking about ALL men being _________________ (fill in the blank) when nobody has said so. So, yeah, we can all agree that both genders can be rotten at times but I'm still willing to bet that the vast majority are not. The rotten ones just reinforce those unfortunate stereotypes that will never go away. And it needs to not be taken personally. Sometimes I get my panties in a twist when I see what guys say about women and have a knee jerk reaction. I might even take it personally, for about 10 seconds, but then blow it off. It isn't about 'me'...and this thread is not about ALL men or even most men, I don't believe.
So, out of 162 posts, am I really the only one who wants to marry again someday?
This is not looking good for me.
I wouldn't worry about it. I think it IS true that those of us who are older do not have marriage as the same priority, and are less willing to settle for a relationship that does not ADD significantly to our lives. Most people who hit their 40s seem to know themselves better, what they like, what they don't like, and will get rid of things we do not like with military precision.
But people get married all the time, and at all ages.

You're very young and your marriage failed too early. Hopefully you'll get another chance to fulfill that part of your dream.
When you're well into middle age (and happily married) ask yourself if you'd want to start over with a new partner after the one you have is gone.
Odds are you'll see what we're talking about.
I'm not that young, lol, but thank you. I was married for 15 years. I think you're right though that the next time I definitely won't want it to end, partly due to being older.
Yep I would, and I will. I got engaged earlier today! =)
Now I know I'll never marry again.
