There are ways to minimize the risks. And the upside is :blessed: It's no different than any other kind of gamble.

Moving outta the Western world is the only way ....
Other than that ....

Or they can just get situated financially and NOT enter relationships ?

Thereby spending the resources they've acquired on themselves instead ?

Or better yet ...maybe stop seeking approval from women all together and live life as they see fit ?

Sounds like freedom and complete autonomy to me.


#GMB is a sound philosophy for anyone who carries out a risk assessment. I'm not about to
hand over my kids to anyone under any circumstances but others are willing to gamble with
their financial and mental health. Let them go for it. It's their divorce ...not mine

I'll pass on this community rhetoric too .....There is no "we" and hasn't been since the 1960s ...
Duh. There can't be a we if everyone wants to do their own thing. I never said you couldn't, everyone isnt meant for monogamy, but it is great for building a community and a great foundation for raising kids.

But you can't expect people from broken families to inherently know how to have a healthy relationship with out work, will and education.

Considering I started GMB and i come from a two parent household where my parents have been married for nearly 35 years

#GMB is really projection by a lot of brehs towards their thot moms.

Brehs that come from homes where a mom and dad held traditional values don't posses GMB ideology.

I'm just going to expose the elephant in the room.

Are you against a monogamous relationship without actual marriage? Like everything but a marriage contract, wedding, etc

Also, if you knew your husband could divorce you, take half your money, take the kids, & legally force you to keep paying him for years, wouldn't you at least have to think hard about if marriage is worth it? Not to mention there's already a 50/50 chance you'll fail & he's far more likely to initiate a divorce

Same, my parents have been happily married since before I was born, but I'm still not interested in the actual marriage aspect. The actual marriage never seemed important, it was the love & communication. I never understood why people feel you can't have love & communication without marriage, they see marriage as the dafault

Aren't you engaged?

And why are you blaming/shaming people for their fathers abandoning them?

I'm a married man breh. You never watched Martin? :martin: :why:

And yea those things factored in our decision as many other risk factors for divorce. That is why we waited until we were old enough and were established.

A lot of the "statistics" #GMB and the like cite are either outdated or downright false. Divorce rates never got higher than 40%, which was in the 80s, and have been falling ever since. For college educated, moderate income families, the rate is as low as 20-25% and falling. And on an anecdotal level, most people I know who got divorced never should have got married in the first place. People getting married in their early 20s :dahell: People getting married with no means of taking care of themselves :dwillhuh: People getting married to partners who cheat on or abuse them :what: People getting married without living together first :bryan: A lot of divorces are just marriages that set themselves up for failure :manny:

I can get if you just don't want the family life or only being with one person, but much of #GMB's reasoning is based on misinformation and lies.

You tell any married man or a woman in general you don't wanna get married...they act you told them you got cancer and don't wanna do chemo...

"Why wouldn't you wanna get married...think about how miserable you gonna be..." :damn:

"How selfish you are for not getting married..." :dahell:

"You gonna miss all the great things in life..." :mindblown:

Marriage shaming is real brehs...
NeverMarry and ChildFree women get it x2.
Even though surveys have indicated married women report higher stress and less satisfaction/contentment than single women.

Cuz only men watched Martin right? :stopitslime:

Your first link says marriages fail 41% of the time and "Note that the percent of couples that get divorced eventually is 50 percent, but only one or two percent get divorced in a particular year".

I see it says the older you are, the less likely you are to get adivorced, but it doesn't mention age at marriage. It also doesn't mention if they're still together for live, or because they're old & lonely, cheaper to keep her, do it for the kds, etc.

Your 2nd link contradicts the first with no hard evidence. The only reference is a book written by the same author of the article :mjlol:

Regardless, should only college educated people get married?

& your anecdotes don't mean anything, I got anecdotes too :troll:
