yeah, you shouldn't be getting married

I know 2 people going through that bullshyt right now. Well one I know personally and the other is a friend of a friend who vented to us not too long ago. And both are struggling mightily.

If divorce is at 60% and of that 60%, 75% are initiated by the woman, that means that there's a 45% chance that at some point a man will be divorced by a woman.

Divorce rates have been falling for the past 30 years and isn't 60%.

You aren't very intelligent

Everyone knows someone whos divorced and is going through it. At least one. My posts are indicative of what happens in most cases.

No thanks. Do you though breh.

I know people who got divorced, but I don't know anyone whose divorces went down as you described. If you have children out of wedlock, you will still pay child support so that shouldn't even factor in (don't have children with a wife or anyone else if you don't want to pay for them). The vast majority of men DO NOT pay alimony to their ex-wives so idk why anyone would use that argument to say that is how most divorces end (it's a blatant lie). Most people aren't celebrities and don't have celebrity money so the people I know aren't splitting assets like that.

it's not marriages fault they are struggling financially, they can learn how to manage their finances better in any situation
and for any truly unlivable circumstances, there is always government assistance

No, they aren't. Not at all.​

If that were actually the case, you'd have an argument. Since it isn't, your argument is

Fully 60-80% of marriages last at least 15 years. The more educated, the longer the couple stays together.

First, for college graduates, the percentage of marriages that are ongoing at 10 and 15 years exceeds the percentages among the other education groups. At 15 years, 75 percent of the marriages of college graduates are ongoing compared with 55–60 percent of marriages among those with less than a college degree. Second, with the exception of marriages that began between ages 41 and 46, divorce rates generally decline as educational attainment increases. For instance, of those marriages that began from ages 23 to 28, the proportion that ended in divorce was 54 percent for those with less than a high school diploma, 50 percent for high school graduates with no college, 46 percent for high school graduates with some college, and 31 percent for college graduates. A similar pattern occurs among marriages that began from ages 35 to 40: the proportion that ended in divorce was 31 percent for those with less than a high school diploma, 25 percent for high school graduates with no college, 26 percent for high school graduates with some college, and 13 percent for college graduates.

Assets are assets. The value of assets will differ, but they are assets all the same.

There's at least 4 dudes at my job that have been fukked over bad in divorces, and 2 of them are nuts Maybe as a result of the divorce, maybe that with other factors who knows

Then we have Mexicans here who tend to stay married but would seriously rather be at work than be at home. These cats come to work 12 hours a day, 7 days a week. To the point were they have to be sent home and they say it's either be here or at home. A lot of them have a bunch of kids too so I'm sure that's a part of the reason also they're Catholics so don't believe in that divorce shyt

If religion wasn't a factor the divorce rate would be much higher than what it is right now

Why would you lie and say that alimony is a part of most divorces ("that's how most divorces go down")? It's only awarded in about 15% of all divorces.

"Alimony remains more common in situations where one parent wishes to stay home to care for children for a specific period of time."

That is not happening in most black households.

Would a man or woman not pay child support whether they married the mother of their child or not? Child support is not marriage or divorce specific.
