[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m literally being told by the divorced dads: I want a family structure; I want another kid; I have money and can support a family.

Yeah, they do. They also want someone to do the household stuff (best case, split the load). They do not want to be solely responsible for household and kid stuff. Which is fine, I don't either, but the big question is why did they divorce then?[/quote]

This. Women usually file for divorce…not men. 70% are initiated by the woman.[/quote]

I keep hearing this stat on this board; is there a citation?[/quote]

It is cited so many places [/quote]

Honestly, men are more pragmatic when it comes to the prospect of divorce. They take time, perform a Benefit Cost Analysis and find the best scenario and will probably only pull the divorce trigger when most expeditious and cost-effective. Look at the lesbian divorce rate vs gay men if you want to some broader context. Why is it the way it is? Why such a stark contrast? Anyone?[/quote]
Are you really asking why highly promiscuous men who continue being promiscuous with other people after marriage are content with marriage? You can't be this stupid.[/quote]

No, sweetheart, I was responding to the post about 70% of divorces being initiated by women. Reading comprehension is your friend.[/quote]
You compared marriages between gay men to marriages between women as if studies, anecdotes and rubbing two brain cells together couldn't tell you that the former doesn't treat marriage any differently than single life. [/quote]

You’re saying gay men can’t commit to fidelity the same way women can? That’s pretty messed up and bigoted. It’s also not true. Some gay married men open it up, but not all.

I’m saying the skewed 70% divorce rate figure can more shown through a reliance on base emotions and just basic…flightiness. When you rely on feelings more that’s what happens. He could be a great guy who pulls his weight, but if you “feel” an “emotional load imbalance” then you’ll quickly pull the trigger on a divorce. Modern men do a lot, but don’t require as much validation or credit for their accomplishments. They don’t keep tally on an imaginary emotional load spreadsheet, if you will.

I look forward to your banshee caterwall of a response.[/quote]
Nonmonogamy is a well established fact of gay male marriages. I don't care about what else you've written.[/quote]

Oh, okay. If that’s your take away and main contention, it’s very surprising why you’re divorced. You have “won” this discussion.[/quote]
