I even look at famous men who are paying millions of dollars in alimony, get married AGAIN and divorced AGAIN, paying more alimony. One would think if marriage was so bad for men, these guys wouldn't dare let another women talk them into it.
I think it's because men don't make good, intimate friends with each other. Close connection is needed by people and I suspect that most men get that from their wives and not their buddies. It's not the same with women where friendships can be quite emotionally intimate.

They are PRESSURED into marriage, and manipulated since day 1 of marriage. Reality trumps BS.

And that is exactly why the DC area economy and public schools are strong and why Florida is.........Florida.

If it makes you feel better to believe that the only men that get married have been pressured and manipulated into doing so - that's totally fine. But that's not reality.
I thought women only earn 70 cents for every dollar a man makes, doing the same job. Which is it, you get to pick only one. Here is a fun fact: 96% of alimony is paid by men to women. How is that not redistribution of wealth from a producer to a consumer?
Oh who cares. Most divorced women get dick squat from their useless ex husbands. You are talking about a minority and they are mainly rich. Talk to the average person on the street and they will have a different story from the one you are crowing about.

If that's the case then they are STUPID FOOLS.
Is that how men are? Is that what you are telling us?
Are you projecting?
