You can easily spin it into a positive. For the married couples, typically they'll have a higher income and will be in a different socioeconomic status than the singles.

They most likely get more benefits for not being married.

Personally.

I find bitches annoying. Particularly with social media these days.

That's my reason.

50 years ago I'd be married by now. But in this day and age, they can pound sand, idgaf.

My generation is all about degeneracy and hedonism. And when you look around this website and see parents talking about cheating on their wives, talking about getting nannies for their kids and not ever interacting with them, talking about how you should try to move next to gay folks, etc. it really is a mystery why this is.

This is quite simple.

Bitches be crazy.

I make good money. Like hell im going to become some cum guzzlers indentured servant.

I'll settle down when I want to.

Until then back to bumbling and enjoying life

This is what I mean. He may not have kids, but adults have become degenerates.

Majority of women out there are not worth marrying but they have these loser orbiters that chase them around and put them on a pedestal. It's pathetic.

The mother is getting a small government handout. The family as a whole and especially the children would be much better off on average as a married household.

I'm with you. There's no way in hell I'm going through two years of big government limbo again waiting on shite to be sorted out. FINALLY got my joint legal and no support of any kind being paid. I don't plan on getting married ever again. Been there, done that. There are lots of women, including mine, who are OK with that. Less shite to divy up at the end if it ends. Ain't having no more kids either. Life is good!

And the older generation that started the divorce trend is more religious?

I'm married with a child. Not religious, but a decent human being.

But more of us are getting gay married, and every one of those counts as two regular marriages.

Not really surprising.


If I didn't want kids I'd have never gotten married either

More like thinking both love and marriage is a fairy tale, wanting instant gratification, and not wanting to work to build it.

Pretty obvious contradiction in this sentence. Wanna try again?

poor people/the underclass aren't getting married and their share of the population is growing

No. I got it right the first time. No contradiction.

Here is a though: religious people can be shitty human beings.
