re: 12th Grade Girls Are Far Less Likely Than Boys To Say They Want To Get Married Someday

These are powerful - and harsh - statements. Marriage isn't about dividing labor and keeping score. This level of resentment isn't healthy at all.
26yrs married this month, for me… and your words are spot on.
If my husband died before me, I don’t think I could remarry- not because I hate men or marriage but because no one could ever replace my best friend in this world.
I sincerely hope 4cubbies grows into her marriage and finds it to be the blessing God intended it to be.

It means that working outside the home all day, then coming home and taking care of kids, a house and a grown man is too much work when subtracting the care of the grown man is also a possibility.

And why is a woman wanting to remarry a red flag?
Why wouldn’t it be? Maybe I should clarify to say women who don’t want (additional) children wanting to remarry is a red flag. What would be the point of a marriage in middle age or later if children weren’t a factor? What purpose would that contract serve?

They are clinical observations that make people uncomfortable because they challenge prevailing cultural narratives.

That’s awful presumptuous. I’m discussing marriage as an institution, not my own marriage. There is an incessant need to make every discussion personal here. I don’t get it.
Didn’t you pile on when posters were mocking me for having a housekeeper? I’m not solely responsible for housework in my family. This discussion isn’t about my personal marriage or workload.

Not exactly. A scholar using Marx and Engels as fundament for their own political holdings is sharing their own ideas.
I don’t though. I could understand you accusing me of leaning on Iris Marion Young’s framework about structural injustices in some discussions, but my ideas in this thread originated in my own brain.

Chill, Cubbies… I said nothing to be “coming at you”.
I believe marriage is a God given blessing and simply hope you come to view it that way too- because it IS a God given blessing.

If true as least your husband is being rewarded for marrying a leftist. Good on you

If you don't follow what I'm saying, it may be that you're so enveloped in the oppressor belief set that you don't even recognize the influence. But the influence is there nonetheless. It's evident in the incompatibility of your social and personal characterizations.
Maybe this will bring home the point.
Here are a set of your contentions:
• Women are not valued by men.
• You are a woman, and therefore not valued.
• Your husband loves you.
• Your husband is a man.
How can a man value anything more than something/someone he loves?

You've been talking about your own personal marriage the entire thread.
Good grief!

The prevailing cultural narrative the feminist one.
At least in the western world.
You're not the outlier who is too smart for the sheep, you ARE the sheep.
And the clinical reality that you mention that "makes people uncomfortable" is the opposite of what you act like it is.
You know this, of course.

Damn right.
2% difference.
Good gosh. Who could ever believe women would put up with that kind of inequality?
It's very clear why they would simply abandon the institution rather than even up that 2%.
I know you're actively ignoring me, but everyone else on the thread is not.
That is an achingly stupid narrative you've chosen to double, triple, quadruple down on.

Because they've been rather stupid on this thread.
He's giving you the benefit of the doubt that you are indoctrinated rather than concluding that you actually believe the nonsense you've repeated on this thread, against all evidence to the contrary.
Believe me, that's the better, more respectful option in this case.

Guys in their early 20s now who listen to guys like Fuentes, are the result of what I’ve said for 20 years, keep pushing and the males, especially white males, will what they’ve proven to be the best at over the last 500 years. Conquering. They’ll take back their countries and it’s honestly not gonna be pretty. But the blue hairs only have themselves to blame.
Google "gen z revolts" or "Strawhat Revolutions". Zoomers men, tired of high unemployment and rising costs of living amid media censorship and oppressive regimes, are toppling governments around the globe on a weekly basis lately. They already successfully took down the governments of Nepal, Madagascar, and Kenya. Indonesia, Iran, and Mexico are holding on by a thread. They have successfully thrown out entrenched no-liberal administrations in several European countries and are gaining momentum in Germany, Portugal, and the UK. Zoomer men are done with "modernity".

This is textbook gaslighting. quote:

Many husbands take their wives for granted. You may find that phrasing less offensive.

It's sort or reminiscent of the Mika Brzezinski - Joe Scarborough situation. Joe negotiated a pay raise for himself. Mika found out, but said nothing. She got strangely hostile to JS over the ensuing weeks. When confronted by JS, she told him she was pissed he was being paid so much more than she was. He asked her what number she'd been denied when she attempted to negotiate her own raise .... Turns out she had not attempted to negotiate her raise. She thought it was too brazen. When she finally did approach management, she got the same step up Joe did.
Sometimes, all it takes is to ask.

Marriage is a sacrament and a vocation. Like all vocations, it entails duties and obligations ordered toward holiness. The purpose of the sacrament of Matrimony is the sanctification of the spouses and their mutual assistance in attaining salvation.
Everything, including suffering, is a God-given blessing.
