Coming from Europe I think that a lot of marital problems come from the casual approach to marriage here. People date for a couple of months, get engaged, and 3 months later they get married. I am comfortable saying that a majority of people that I know who get married know each other less than a year.
Divorce is just a stepping stone in the thing we called Life. Of course the males get stuck with all the run up credit cards might make one end a life.

So, there are some situations that are unfair towards men. Like divorce and that kinda stuff. That being said, women face a lot more discrimination then men do. Furthermore, that book referenced Atlas Shrugged seriously. In terms of literary quality, Atlas Shrugged is on par with a screenplay for an Adam Sandler movie. In conclusion, the book was written by an idiot and by reading it you might decrease your intelligence.

Discrimination against women will never be truly fixed if discrimination against men is allowed...it will just perpetuate it.

I'm sure it's going to go over really well around here, but I don't have a lot of respect for a guy who doesn't know how to do that sort of thing.
If I called any of my male friends or relatives to help me change a tire I'd deserve all of the scorn that they gave me. And boy, would they.

Women are evil and soon we will be free of them!
There I said it.
In answer to this.....
Of all the races of the universe the Squats have the longest memories and the shortest tempers. They are uncouth, unpredictably violent, and frequently drunk. Overall, I'm glad they're on our side!
Office of Naval Intelligence Research discovers 3 out of 4 sailors make up 75% of U.S. Navy.

Ok, Frazz, What if its just more women going to college.
Also So what if men arent getting married, Maybe being tied down your whole life feeding 90% of money you made to shoes.
Also Divorces arent higher then they ever been, They got their Highest in the 80's and teetered down from there.
So basically this thread has shown how the "war on men" is merely another salvo in the war on women.
the war on women is no more real than the war on men, so yes.
I once knew a woman who almost made the shoes stereotype real. She had an entire bedroom filled with nothing but shoes. Beautiful girl too, smart, into latex, absolute firecracker in the sack....but the shoes thing was too much for me.

I dunno man, sometimes it's ok to let hyperbole slide. Especially when the writer by his own admission, has about as much experience with women as I do racing formula one.
Females will always win. We're to distracted by cleavage...g-strings....apple bottom.....I admit...I'm an arse man..

So thats why i heard a bloodcurdling scream of rage from up here in Canada....
My two cents for this topic is: Well im goin to probably parrot what a bunch of people have already said but hell i know i probably wont get married for a very long time, gota find that "perfect" girl and by perfect i mean ruffly into the same things as myself and can put up with my ...."quirks" ei horrendous snoring. But ive seen to many of my friends get knocked up/ knock a girl up right when they are out of high school (or in some cases while still in high school) they have absolutely no custody of their kid, and loose about 80% of what they earn to go to the mother of their kid, or some of my female friends who got knocked up were ditched by the afther who hoped the border or moved across the country.... That and the one girl i was goin to mary decided to sleep with a good friend of mine a few weeks after i proposed to her..... fun times
