Is there any point in getting married in 2021? Seriously marriages are a complete joke now most end in divorce and complete financial ruin.

Marriages that actually last are for BetaCuckProviders with the "Happy Wife = Happy Life" Motto.

there is 0 point for a man in the West. unless you like gambling half you sh*t with 80% chance of misery/losing

you need to get all the romantic ideals about marriage out of your head. even women dont marry for fairytale love, they marry to use you/have control over you for the most part.


dont sign a contract the other party is incentivized to break like a retard.

if you are white or non muslim/non indian or other traditional culture, you have overwhelming probably 70-80% odds of losing.

Instead of "happy wife, happy life", it's better to think "happy me, happy we" srs.

I agree with Silencespeaks here on these things.

One thing to add though is that if you're planning to live with your LTR, and you're in a common law area, you can be considered married and have similar penalties as in divorce should things go South, srs. Technically worse than a marriage because there's no prenup in a common law marriage haha. So if you live with your LTR, might want to marry anyways in a common law area.

Also you get tax benefits for being married, lower income brackets usually.

Other than those specific things, marriage doesn't really have much benefit srs. It's expensive (wedding, rings, honeymoon, anniversaries, counseling/therapy, divorce). And it leaves you vulnerable to things that your spouse can do. Example being, I know a guy who divorced an angry ex-wife, and to get revenge she maxed out his corporate credit card on toys and vacations, and he got exiled from his entire industry srs, still hasn't financially recovered after many years and probably never will.

Marriage is worth it if you can keep your woman in line. If you're a cuck who would physically allow her to walk out of the house on you, let alone take the kids with her, you will not have a good time.

yeah but you have no ACTUAL power over her to 'keep her in line' once you've signed that contract.

you can say "just hold frame bro" all you want, but what you don't understand is women are not logical creatures, they will wreck their own homes and file for divorce even if their life would be better cooperating/staying with you (see: modern state of single mamas/divorce rate etc.). and their emotions/behavior can change especially after marriage.

If you want to have children and raise them properly find a good wife (look beyond the hot girls, too..) and get married. The differences between kids raised by broken homes and kids raised by stable homes with both parents is night and day.

Repent and follow Christ. Find a woman who has done the same. This simple plan works surprisingly (but not infallibly) well, and though the chief end is to glorify God, you'll also find that your own life is filled with joy.

I would rather be sentenced to death than marry a westerner or raise children in the West with these half dead and half retarded politicians enslaving people so their kids can be drug addicts and tell people how they can live

As a male, if you’re gonna marry you gotta “marry down.” Both in looks and income. And even then there are no guarantees.

It’s such a shame because I believe with all my heart that I would be an amazing father. I really do. But the stats are the stats and can’t be ignored. Not to mention rising costs with stagnant wages, a sh!t woke culture, school indoctrination, etc. If this were 1955 I’d be all for it. In 2021, all analysis says it’s high risk, low reward.

She’s gonna get sick of you typically after only the first year after marriage.

Lol I passed 7 years of Spanish classes in high school and college and still can barely speak or understand it. My brain isn’t built to learn another language. And all the English speaking countries are probably just as expensive, if not more than America. My ass is staying in one of these 50 states.

Only time marrying for a man makes sense is if the woman is significantly more wealthy than you.

It used to be. In the past marriage meant a union between man and woman, both parties stuck through thick and thin (as you see with most of your parents/grandparents), society would shame single people or people that cheated etc. Back then also people only knew about basic missionary sex.

In today's day and age where a woman reads 50 Shades of Grey and all kinds of chit and wants to get bulled by a BBC, lmfao at getting married.

If you're a woman marriage is literally the best financial investment you can make, if you are a man it is the dumbest decision you can make unless she earns substantially more and you're fine with being polygamous (her fuking other dudes to be more specific).

Agreed, love is fleeting, marriage these days is literally just a financial contract and nothing else. And if you're a man you are at a significant disadvantage and at risk of paying for someone you may eventually despise for years/life while they can do whatever the fuk they want even if its morally wrong. Fuk that chit.

If I had a son and he received alimony from a rich woman he divorced, I’d disown him.

I know a lot of guys are laughing their asses off at women who have to pay their ex-husbands alimony or excessive child support and I get that. But it’s the wrong approach. Britney Spears’ ex husband who got a ton of her money and got fat as fuk is a disgrace. He never made an album in his life but because he made less than her, he gets to use the “Well I’m used to a certain lifestyle” excuse so the judge says “seems legit” and he gets to keep a huge portion of the money? It’s bullsh!t either way you slice it.

Divorce laws where the guy has to pay the woman are inherently sexist because it’s basically saying that the woman can’t provide for herself. I see no feminists protesting how unfair that sh!t is.

The real answer here is that you along with many others have been thoroughly demoralized by a determined conspiracy against you and cannot see the forest for the trees.

Welcome to the Great Reset. You don't need to believe in anything anymore. You don't need to worry about things like family values or patriotism any longer. We will tell you what you need to believe in from now on.

IDGAF about marriage or dating or any involvement with most women. Fking lol @ believing in the fairly tale fantasy that you can have some perfect marriage wife/kids in 2021. Society has gone down the chitter with COVID, overpopulation, extreme competitiveness of secure jobs/employment, overuse of social media and technology, brainwashing of both liberal and conservative media, the dumbing down of the education system in the USA, extreme religious control worldwide, global warming, etc, etc.

There's a million reasons to not get married and have kids, and what I mention is just scratching the surface. Especially in the USA you'll get destroyed if your female partner decides she wants to divorce you. If you have kids you'll be in an even worse spot, paying child support and all kinds of other legally binding BS. Marriage is an outdated, irrelevant cultural phenomenon and men shouldn't sign their lives away because they "love" a woman. Truth is, marriage is all about MONEY and STATUS. Take that away from a man, and he's worthless in the eyes of most women. Life isn't fair, protect yourself from the system.

Marry only if you want to have kids.

There are actually some great tax benefits.

Only marry or have kids with a woman who was a virgin when you met her. ded fkn srs. Go overseas and find one if you have to.

Nothing wrong with an LTR with someone who isn't, but marriage? Women who want to be married should save themselves for marriage. Otherwise, they should accept that they will only be in LTRs. srs.
