Look at marriage from an objective standpoint and realize that it is a civil contract that unifies the assets of two individuals or estates. In other words, it is the act of making a union recognized by the government which means the government now legally governs over said union.

So there is the potential for alimony payments if the merger is dissolved and the splitting of assets. Lesson being, if you choose to enter such a legally binding merger, only do so if both parties contribute assets equally (both pre merger and in terms of productivity while the union remains intact) unless you don't mind potentially losing half of what you brought into the merger and making monthly payments to your former partner to maintain their standard of living.

This is before children are even taken into account. Add child payments in this instance and realize in most Western nations that women are granted custody about 90% of the time. Defaulting on child support payments can put one in arrears, landing them in prison.

Not trying to scare anyone, just making it clear what marriage is. It's a legally binding merger of estates. So know very well what you are buying into if you choose to do so.

Nobody goes into marriage with the idea in mind that theirs will end in divorce, which is obviously a defeatist mindset, but realistically, a good percentage of marriages ed in divorce. There are roughly half the number of divorces per year as there are marriages. 32.2 marriages per 1,000 unwed women and about 16.9 divorces per 1,000 married women. So a 16.9 to 32.2 ratio of divorce to marriage in 2015 which is not the same as saying 16.9 marriages out of 32.2 ended in divorce.

Thats the main issue here. Most of the cases of unfair divorce setlements tend to happen when the man is the main provider. family courts still favor the mother in most cases, but child support is so miniscule when being compared to alamony when the man is the sole provider. The sole provider has to keep the ex living in a maner in wich they where acostume to, but often thats impossible as the assets are split in half, and the living expenses more than double since each has to live on their own. 

Like you said, if a man is thinking of getting married, he better make sure they are equal going in. ANd at least both plan on stayinng that way along the years. CUz most often than not, after children, if a man makes a good amount, the mother does not go back to work, so even going in equal terms mid way everything can change.

And its not just men. if the women is the sole earner men get alamoney and half the assets. But the problem as men see it is that that this rarely happens and like 98% of th cases is the man who looses since is the norm for the man to be the primary provider. 

Like you said, or someone else said, marriage is outdated and needs to have huge changes or the marrige rates are gona keep droping every year and divorce rate will keep increasing.

I for one will keep on dating with no plans for marriage, since I have to much to loose and dont know if its my taste or just bad luck, but i havent met any women that put any of them on my economic level for me to even feel safe about even living together.
