[quote=TwistdMike][quote=Anonymous]Many women are no longer financially dependent on men.  Men, however, are still dependent on women for a lot of things around the house. This seems to be the impetus for many divorces in the first place. Also, if it's true that women can find sexual partners more easily, there's less need for them to seek sexual security in marriage.

Basically, men gain more from marriage than women do. Thus they are probably more driven to remarry.[/quote]

Dependent on women for a lot of things around the house?

During my bachelor days after the divorce, I had absolutely no issues with managing things around the house. From paying bills, cleaning top to bottom, cooking, ironing, etc. actually, I find it easier to maintain a clean house when I am alone, no digging long hair out of the shower drain, no soap scum on the shower walls, 2-3 hours a week to clean top to bottom.

If I needed sex, could either go out and find "miss right now" or take care of things during the morning shower.

So it wasn't dependency upon a woman for those things that got me married again. It was companionship and wanting to share my life with someone, to have a meaningful relationship. To share success, pleasure, pain, loss, etc. to have support and to be support.

You can be surrounded by people, have hundreds or thousands of FB friends, but without that special someone, you will be alone.

I believe men and women have equal gains in a good relationship...[/quote]
