Having been through the divorce meatgrinder once already, there is NOTHING that a woman offers that is worth the risk of going through it again.

As I said in another post, in my experience (and what I've observed with friends and family), women are not good companions at all. If I want companionship, I will get a dog. Or a cat. Or a foul-tempered rabbit (yes, it must be foul-tempered. Like Bun Bun from Sluggy Freelance). Or a snake.

I'm assuming you meant someone to put hemhorroid cream on you when you're pregnant. Since men can't get pregnant, I don't think this applies. And I'm not keen on putting hemhorroid cream on anyone else.
You mean pointing a nuclear weapon at me that she can set off at any time, with the State's blessing, and remove from my life on a whim, WHILE simultaneously forcing me to pay a third of my gross earnings, with State force standing by to be used against me if I lose my job or something?
Thank you....no.

While I'm tempted to give you this one, due to my last girlfriend (I still think about some things and smile, and she left 2 years ago), I think back to the ex wife, or the girl that got pregnant by another guy and tried to say it was mine and hit me up for Mommy's Party Fund Support, til the DNA test said no....Keep in mind, she's been lying to her daughter for 14 years, telling her that I was her father. Poor kid had searched Teh Interwebz trying to find me, which I found out after the po-leece dropped paperwork off for the Mommy's Party Fund Support case. Then there's the girl from high school that got mad because I dumped HER before she could dump ME, and decided that the appropriate response was to make a false accusation that could have landed me in prison at the tender young age of 18. I was a couple months from graduating high school, 7 months from shipping out to basic training, and facing a false accusation. The type that "women would NEVER lie about". Uh, yeah, they would, I'm living proof.
That's a great memory, right there. As is being lied to for YEARS about where the money in the checking account is going. It's great to know that while you were struggling to pay the electric bill and put food on the table, you were also bankrolling someone else's mother's Home Shopping Network addiction, AND paying for a dog for their grandmother to abuse ad neglect. Even better was having the po-leece at my house because her kid was dealing heroin IN MY HOUSE while I was at work, and allowing all his druggie friends to eat everything in the house. I loved spending a thousand dollars a month on groceries and never having food in the house. The thought of the cops breaking down the door and executing a warrant on my home, searching for his drugs, was even better, especially since I like to shoot and hunt and have a nice collection of firearms. Nothing I'd like better than to watch the things I worked hard for get "lost" in po-leece evidence.

I prefer the Heckler & Koch retirement plan. Or sitting on a beach in Peru and just dying.
Not a benefit, IMO. Firstly because I think it's just a matter of time until .gov seizes everyone's 401(k)'s to pay for .gov's outrageous spending, as has already been done in at least a few other countries (European countries, not Banana Republics). Secondly, I *HAD* a 401(k) at one point. Five years I contributed to it. Had just gotten vested in the company's pension program, too.
Now I have neither. She got more than half my 401(k), and the rest was withdrawn over a period of months to keep my car from getting repo'ed and my house from getting foreclosed while I tried to find a job in my new/old home state.
Now I'm rebuilding my retirement from scratch, and am part of a pretty good retirement system....as long as CONgress doesn't decide they really, REALLY want that money, like they did with SS decades ago.
Only a benefit for women, since men typically die sooner. Also, as someone else mentioned, SS won't be around by the time I'm old enough to collect. Luckily, I don't pay into it, because my work has a different system. Unluckily, CONgress could rob that just as easily as they robbed SS.
This one I WILL give you.

Ha, there are all kinds of reasons that people could say. Personally, I think they wanted the tax break, insurance, and the ability for their partner to make medical decisions for them and inherit their stuff. None of which I disagree with. But IMO, you should be able to leave your stuff to whoever you want, name someone to make medical decisions for you if you are unable to do so, and put your dog on your health insurance if that's the only creature that lives with you. Unmarried couples living together should get all that, too. NOT allowing unmarried couples all of that is (again, in my opinion) a violation of the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment.
