"It's not just men that get divorced every day. Clearly. Don't tar everyone with the same brush OP, it's not fair. I got divorced because I didn't love my husband and when he cheated on me I realised I was more pissed off that he'd lied to me than hurt he had cheated.

Where's your debate OP? Instead of just accusing all women of being the same. You're making very generalised statements, some of which don't even apply in this day and age. | |||

"Marriage is an archaic practice, initially created to demonstrate one human beings ownership of another’s. Has it evolved? Well yes, one would hope. It now demonstrates a person’s commitment to another with the goal of shared happiness and prosperity. So.... do we really need a ceremony for that? Do we need a signed contract for that? Love is both beautiful and flippant, what you may love today, you may not tomorrow, marriage complicates love, it certainly doesn’t reinforce it. It puts unnecessary pressure on a natural, pure emotion, it cages the bird and clips it’s wings.

"Marriage is an archaic practice, initially created to demonstrate one human beings ownership of another’s. Has it evolved? Well yes, one would hope. It now demonstrates a person’s commitment to another with the goal of shared happiness and prosperity. So.... do we really need a ceremony for that? Do we need a signed contract for that?

"It's not in a man's favour in the Western world. Eh? Sorry, not being ignorant but genuinely don't understand what you are trying to say. 1, Financial it's not in a man's favour " In my own case it was most certainly not in this woman's favour. I came away from the divorce with nothing other than the entire marriage debt which he racked up in my name. I am 8 years into a 10 year repayment plan. He refused to disclose his assets and finances and I couldn't afford to challenge him. After selling the family home he bought a new house and was able to get a mortgage but I was not able to without paying double the deposit than he did due to the debt. I moved myself and our 2 children into rented accommodation and until I clear the debt that is where we will remain. I am not resentful towards him, rather I am super proud of myself for working on clearing the debt and showing my children how to manage finances properly by budgeting and saving. OP I don't waste my time expecting good fortune or that I am owed something from the legal system or society, I have come through a divorce, the loss of my mum as a child and a step father who spent my inheritance. I don't care about money or material things, I just want to live a happy life with my own little family. Her x | |||

Do you know how much a child cost's per year ?"To be fair OP. I’m not sure what your point is anymore, no offence, do men get a rough ride in divorce settlements? My experience no, they get to pay for the benefits that they had from the marriage, usually someone sacrificing their career to bring up the children, or keep house for them. When I got divorced I walked away from the house and started again, as I had given my wife the option to work or not to and she decided not to. She kept the house going and made herself difficult to employ after the fact, I wasn’t going to see her homeless. If we had had children, I would have made sure that the money (and hopefully my presence in some form) was there as they grew up. I guess we all think in our own way | |||

"It's not in a man's favour in the Western world. Eh? Sorry, not being ignorant but genuinely don't understand what you are trying to say. 1, Financial it's not in a man's favour Erm... okay. My ex husband left our marriage with everything he started with. I certainly didn't marry him for his money and I made that clear from the start. Well done you for sticking with your honour Many don't
Not all do no but maybe don't tar everyone with the same brush. After 12 years, marriage turned out to not work in my favour but finances had nothing to do with it, more the person I was married to. Each situation is unique.
I won't ever put myself in that situation again purely because I don't see the point but some try again and it works for them.
That brush your talking about has ruined many men's life's and has taken them year's some forever to recover!
Don't talk to me about taring, As i read about men being divorce everyday!
It's not just men that get divorced every day. Clearly. Don't tar everyone with the same brush OP, it's not fair. I got divorced because I didn't love my husband and when he cheated on me I realised I was more pissed off that he'd lied to me than hurt he had cheated. He came out of that marriage a lot better off financially than he went in and I was a lot worse off.
From history the male is the bread winner the female stays at home. That's how it goes, more women are more weathty these days this is true. But it's still a small percentage in this world
I certainly wasn't more wealthy than him. I just wanted him out of my life and basically paying him off was he quickest an easiest way.
You've obviously got a personal issue either with women or divorce, and I'm sorry to read that. But it's not fair to car us all with the same brush as I said.
No personal issues at all or with women, that's not fare is it ? Maybe read a girls magazine from the shelf and see what's going on in the younger generation? About fame and fortune and have a word with the editor "That's got nothing to do with whatever point you're trying to make. | |||

"Don't quite understand why not OP. When you are married to the right person, you can't beat it. Love, trust, support, being with your best friend and soulmate, sharing a life together, what's not to love about it. There's no such thing as a soulmate. But married to the right person for the right reason is correct The trouble is we don't communicate enough to find the right person Yes there is such a thing as soulmate. That one person who means the world to you and you are totally compatible and happy with. There's no such thing as a soul or any evidence of one ever." We shall agree to disagree | |||

My ex husband left our marriage with everything he started with. I certainly didn't marry him for his money and I made that clear from the start. Well done you for sticking with your honour Many don't
Not all do no but maybe don't tar everyone with the same brush. After 12 years, marriage turned out to not work in my favour but finances had nothing to do with it, more the person I was married to. Each situation is unique.
I won't ever put myself in that situation again purely because I don't see the point but some try again and it works for them.
That brush your talking about has ruined many men's life's and has taken them year's some forever to recover!
Don't talk to me about taring, As i read about men being divorce everyday!
It's not just men that get divorced every day. Clearly. Don't tar everyone with the same brush OP, it's not fair. I got divorced because I didn't love my husband and when he cheated on me I realised I was more pissed off that he'd lied to me than hurt he had cheated. He came out of that marriage a lot better off financially than he went in and I was a lot worse off.
From history the male is the bread winner the female stays at home. That's how it goes, more women are more weathty these days this is true. But it's still a small percentage in this world
Oh for goodness sake. Firstly we’re not “in history” anymore. Secondly you said the western world in your op, not the world and thirdly I don’t know one female friend/family member who stays at home whilst the man works and fourthly if they do stay at home it’s usually because they’ve given up/put on hold their career to bring up HIS children!

"Marriage works for us. We have been a couple over 20 years and married for 15. A good marriage is a partnership and apparently happily married men live longer too. Happy married men live long lol Actually, on checking... evidence suggests that married people live longer in general...
Where's General in USA ?
Western world. Where we have more equality and women rarely die in childbirth.
Did i ever say, you did not have those rights and freedoms ?
No, but it's women's rights and freedoms that make a modern marriage equally beneficial for both parties.
Women are no longer expected to simply be baby making machines, tied to the house.
Historically, men very much had the upper hand in any marriage. the cost of living is high, both parties have to work
What has that to do with anything?
Other than a excuse to keep the woman at home.
For many years I was the main wage earner.
Im saying..couples both have to go out to work because the cost of living is high. Both bread winning
If that's what they choose to do and many don't.
