[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can’t think of another institution that has financially, emotionally, and physically ruined more women and made more women desperately unhappy than marriage. It’s telling that not one person among the experts interviewed for OP’s article could name a there  single benefit to women of getting married. Speaking as a very unhappily married millennial woman, I am thrilled to see that more and more women in the next generation are sidestepping the hellpit that marriage is for most of us.[/quote]

My parents had a successful traditional marriage and are still in love after 56 years. 
Even so, I knew by my early twenties that marriage was a bad deal for women. I'm so glad that younger women are figuring this out.[/quote]

And it’s bad deal for a man if the woman they marry eventually displays her true colors in a few years and is overly neurotic, critical, hostile, rude, controlling and withholds intimacy for a variety of reasons (such as for control). Or she withholds intimacy because she views it as a special activity reserved only for special occasions and not something that should happen with regular frequency as a normal course of marriage. And that’s even if the man she married does a 50/50 domestic duty split and she doesn’t have a grudge over a perceived imbalance in that area which could cause her resentment and to lose interest in intimacy.

I’m sorry, but the man bashing on here was getting to me. Men can be forced with putting up with a lot in marriage, as well. However, it’s more common that they’re expected to suffer in silence.

I get it. marriage is hard. Gen Z Millennials are already suffering from emotional fragility, as is a stereotypical assumption. Couple that with the social justice movememt and me too and Tik Tok, and with career and money woes and bada bing bada boom here we are…a relatively poor, easily offended, quivering mass of people who would rather be alone or just hang with their buds eating brunch.[/quote]

Women stop having sex when there is no intimacy.  [/quote]
