I don’t disagree with him, but marriage, for men in the USA at least, is a tremendous legal and economic risk, much more so than for women.
Given the state of society, the legal system, and the beliefs of most “modern” women regarding their entitlements (effectively believing they are entitled to all the advantages of being a women and a man, without any of the responsibilities of either sex), I don’t blame single men for remaining single.
I’ve always thought that it would be easier for a woman to remain single than for a man.
You bring up some valid points about non-trust with women, however.
Thank you.
