#2 As long as she can cook some edible meals, I won't complain
#3 true, unless you have a "wife" who has the same hobbies (or at least is curious)
#4 if you have ladies night out (or something like that) then let the guys have their fun
#5 nothing wrong there
#6 girls may have lives, but guys have their own lives too
#7 normal
#9 sadly true for many
About 7.... what if we are just a big eater? takes a lot of calories to be an active person.
"doesn't see the point in mrrying"
That's because he doesn't want to marry the chick in question. Every guy sees the point they don't want the chick in question forever.
Yea, I know how you are. You say all that stuff but if you find a nice, sensitive, respectful and loving man, you drop him like a hot potato for a Bad Boy that will slap you around late Saturday night, you SLUTS!!!
"He tries to impress with his manliness by eating large helpings and hot dishes"
hmm maybe he has a huge appetite?
1. Not true! I totally love my girl to bits! I just don't wanna vocalize it 24/7
2. God, I love stew. Maybe she knows how to make some, I should ask...
3. Uh... Yeah, I still have a ton of things I haven't done yet, and marriage would stop those plans dead in their tracks.
4. What? No.
5. It's a guy thing.
6. Hey, just because I bought this $60 Aegis figure doesn't mean I wouldn't have used the money to get her something nice if I saw it.
7. I like to eat. I may be a skinny asian, but I love food.
8. I never said...
9. Fine.
10. Read #1.
Actually i feel kinda good about marriage since I'm an otaku with tons of figures but i have a good wife and a daughter~ happy days ahead lolol
damn
I'm guilty of number 10
Who the hell male would like marriage if she stops trying after marriage...
I'll throw myself off a bridge if I turn into a douche-bag like that...
This can be a mystery really only for women. Guess who will manage all your money and be home while your are working...2D>3D
only 2 words come to my mind when reading this list :
CHOOSE BETTER! :p
These are symptoms of dumb men. Not mysteries.
It all boils down to one thing: The POwer of the P.U.S.S.Y., look it up.
BAWWWWWWW bunch of virgins complaining that women are pointless and illogical and not worth it to compensate for the face you all can't get laid.
How cute.
Men are simple. Thats all people need to know. There should be an article about the mysteries of women than men. Someone in here said it right: these are just insecurities and fears not to mention what men do with people typically period. If men were anymore complicated, they are either gay, or our fuzzy little man brains would explode.
marriage is a joke.
Seems like I'm the one few who are excited to get married. Looks like I'm digging my own grave. We will see. :)
Oh I'm a guy.
Marriage = many things... But it doesn't end there....
Ending up alone in your dreamhome after 60 years of marriage and your wife dies.... NOW THAT! That is the END! It happened to my uncle.... Now he cries in his sleep or when he is lonely. Good thing his grandchild appeared!
LOLZ at the grandchild... might be future gay.... Hard-headed too....
So far, only 9 applied to me.
1. = Asshole
2. = I cook for myself so.....
3. = It is
4. = That seems a little dumb don't you think ?
5. = Maybe you don't understand how guys talk to each other
6. = No, She has a schedule too, I'd make sure it was okay first. I don't get what low priority means though in this context @.@
7. = People think stuffing your face like a fat ass idiot is manly ? Guess I better get me to a buffet.
8. = Neither Do I
9. = I rather not get lost, I'd probably ask, It is just awkward for some guys to do things like that, what is so strange about it ? I'm sure there are things women feels uncomfortably doing too.
10. = What ? Sorry, I'm can't hear you over how awesome I am. Just Kidding, That guys is a complete ass, I usually would assume he would see her and ask something like ,, hey, what's up ? '' ,, Anything new? '' or ,, How was your day ?
'' I guess I'm the only one that does that. Isn't there anything else to talk about ? Try to lead him into another topic, I can't really think of anything good, maybe just something simple, like, ,, That reminds me of .... '' usw...
Marriage is heaven
It becomes hell when you let a lazy demon in your life.
The demon is you or her or him and you.
Whoever does the other wrong, just isn't true to themselves they can find their own Heaven seeking your hell as well.
women = worthless
vagina's = fun
if this man logic doesn't make sense to women then all hope is lost for humanity
If many men think so about marriage... It isn't weird if we women choose to be with other girls mh...
You can't suddenly "flip" the gay switch in response to something like the fact that men don't want to get married when the laws universally assrape them.
You are either gay or not. You can't change your sexual preferences. You don't even decide them really.
#5 is simple. Women have such tremendous egos from being put on a pedestal by most men and society in general as well as a complete lack of scrutiny of their actions that they blow up or get huffy when someone says something other than what they want to hear. Combine this with the mainstream contempt for masculine personalities and you've got a recipe for a lot of guys walking on eggshells around them and that sort of dress down their behavior.
This is mostly just spineless conformist men, though, and I guess they don't understand this.
I wonder, why did I mentally link so many of these so-called mysteries to the oh-so-popular carnivorous men?
Hmm, I'm a guy and I also don't understand or do anything on that list either.
#9 is kind of amusing. Here, women say, "What is it with men and asking for directions?" Well, there you go.
getig marred isint the end lol
trust me it's about finding the "ONE"
I never fight, argue, ect with my wife and I'm still in charge and I'm only 21 I've been marred since I was 18 fresh out of high school acting like marrage is the end is for kid's
grow up
the tufness around his friends is just cause he's fallowing the man law http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UG1zM_VFcu4
"8. He says he doesn’t see the point in marrying so he won’t marry"
i can't see what's mysterious about this X_x
Pure psychology. No mysteries here, except for those with housewife mentality. That's why striving for equality between sexes is great. So you can find life companion that is like best friend on par to you, not some brand-blinded, money-spending household dumb machine.
1. Could be a case of him needing to be careful what he wished for. It happens all the time: You find a girl who seems great, and then when you start dating her she shows the bad habits and such which she concealed when she was single.
2. Hey, why complain if he doesn't expect much out of your cooking? I mean, really.
3. It IS.
4. Sometimes, you only get rare opportunities to hang out with friends. Might have to be on a group date. And hell... If the woman's doing her job right, she shouldn't have to worry about him looking elsewhere.
5. This is called testosterone. Want your date not to do this? Don't go out with men.
6. Again, it happens. If a woman is such a low priority for a man, she's not doing her job right.
7. See five.
8. This is a simple fear of commitment. Get used to it.
9. Men figure crap out for themselves.
10. (I've got nothing on this one)
Let's see..
" 1. He was desperate to date you, but once you started dating he no longer cares"
He expected your personality to be as nice as your body but no matter how beautiful the woman eventually you get tired of the bitching.
" 2. He thinks he’s really doing well if his girlfriend can cook a stew"
Nowadays it's impressive if a woman will cook at all so I see his point.
" 3. He thinks it’s all over once you get married"
It is, there's no escape but death or poverty.
" 4. Even though he has a girlfriend he still goes on group dates (goukon) for fun"
Sounds like you've confused your friends with benefits status vs a real girlfriend.
" 5. Whenever he’s with his friends he starts talking tough"
Guys are normally rougher with each other than with women. You punch a guy he punches you back, you punch a woman she cries an you go to jail.
" 6. He thinks he can see his girlfriend any time he likes so she becomes a low priority"
She's still a priority but she expects to be able to overrule anything he wants to do. Tough, you pick a man with a backbone and you've got to put up with a man with a backbone.
" 7. He tries to impress with his manliness by eating large helpings and hot dishes"
Some like it hot? Men generally eat more than women. Show me a woman that eats as much as a man and I'll show you.. well.. a 400lb woman.
" 8. He says he doesn’t see the point in marrying so he won’t marry"
I'm married right now and I don't see the point. Married women treat sex as a chore and if that is lacking then it'd be cheaper to hire a maid and a prostitute.
" 9. He won’t ask people about things he doesn’t know as he doesn’t want to be indebted to them"
The internet knows all.. who needs to ask people?
" 10. He ignores his girlfriend and talks solely about himself"
Okay, I'll give you that one. One valid complaint out of ten isn't bad.
If your wife treats sex as a chore you two are either doing it wrong, or you're with the wrong woman (or both).
Some people have low sex drives, sometimes because of hormones, sometimes because of excess stress and so on. My sex drive is higher than my husband's. His ideal is twice or so a week, mine is six-three times a week. Please note that it includes all sorts of sex and not just intercourse. We've been married for five years so far, and neither of us have gotten less interested in sex over the years. Us not getting any kids probably helped - as far as I have heard kids is hell on the intimacy of a couple. As we won't be getting any kids, I can't even imagine how we would ever consider sex a chore, though I can understand how others do if they are too stressed.
> Guys are normally rougher with each other than with women. You punch a guy he punches you back, you punch a woman she cries an you go to jail.
Nah, the harsh reality is "you punch a guy and he *sues* you back".
If you live in pussyland...
What?
The USA!?
#4 is ridiculous. So if a guy has a girlfriend that's the only person he can ever hand out with? That's stupid.
That's not what it means. It means that you go to a date with an equal amount of girls and guys for dating purposes.
Well sure, but if you're serious about your girlfriend nothing more than friendship will come out of it. Nothing wrong with being a wingman.
This is more of a list of women's insecurities regarding men, rather than things they don't understand.
A man is as faithful as his options. If she isn't high on his list, she needs to do something to be there or he's gone. What purpose does she serve in his eyes? If he is self sufficient, there isn't anything that she can do to help "fix" him. If he isn't dying, he's not in need of consoling. If you aren't serving a purpose you can cease to exist. It may be that I've been too clairvoyant to have a woman near me. I'm still trying to find a woman with whom I have reason to approach.
1. Never desperate, always single.
3. It is.
4. Girlfriend = no more fun, why can't men understand?
5. *smack* Shut up bitch, did I ask you?
6. Our date can wait, Project DIVA is in town!
7. "Fuck you, I'm eating." - Carls Jr.
8. Perfect logic.
10. I'm sorry, you were caricaturing your cat? Do go on.
from a guy who almost got married...
if you got any fucking brains at all, you will run like hell...
Take a rich widow and let it look like an accident
That sounded evil, but it drew a massive LOL out of me.
Regardless of anyone's company I always eat large or spicy dishes.
10. He ignores his girlfriend and talks solely about himself.
A lot of guys must be complete fags then, isn't it usually girls who blab away?
7. He tries to impress with his manliness by eating large helpings and hot dishes
Of course.. Some guys just eat a lot and enjoy spicy foods..
So you've never meet someone who thinks they are "cool" because they eat hot chilli-peppers and similar stuff? If so, be glad, it's a annoying and childish version of the "my dick is biggest!" competition that men or "grown boys" like to engage in.
Though it is hardly a mystery why men engage in various "penis size" competitions, it's just a form of trying to impress on the ladies (aka "get laid") and to establish your rank among your fellow males. It's just that when it comes to ridicilous "games" like who can eat the hot food, he small head down there probably did to much thinking...
If you work your ass off for your wife of cause you eat a lot.
Women also tend to over think and over complicate things. Men being a prime example.
Makes it women superior , i guess not.
There IS no point in marriage. Why do you need to do a bunch of ceremonial bullshit just to stay together? Just keep the boyfriend/girlfriend status forever. Marriage is expensive and just complicates things. For example, divorce. You don't even have to do all that legal paperwork shit, you can just leave the bastard/bitch if you feel that the relationship starts failing.
Traditions in general are fucking stupid, actually.
> 2. He thinks he’s really doing well if his girlfriend can cook a stew
Huh? A dream for lazy bums?
> 5. Whenever he’s with his friends he starts talking tough
Small talk is a turn off for both sexes.
> 7. He tries to impress with his manliness by eating large helpings and hot dishes
It's a way to brag of being healthy. But it still looks weird.
Tough is not the same as though.
In Japan, marriage is about people (most likely females)wanting money.
...Actually it's the same everywhere.
Poverty protects before the marriage.
Yes, it's always the females wanting money, and never the men wanting sex and someone doing the house choirs...
So we need a sexbot and a maid.
A sexbot and a maid would be cheaper... And she better NOT be doing the whole house choir! How can you consentrate with all the singing?
dead in 30 years are you over 50 i guess not.
The maid can be the sexbot, too. Well, maybe not, it would ruin the prospects for threesomes.
Chobits come to mind... :3
I believe it's possible in maybe 30 years.
I might be dead by then... :/
FUUUU~
Problem solved. Now, on to the next issue...
1. He was desperate to date you, but once you started dating he no longer cares
I think this is more about a person breathing a sigh of relief ie thank god I finally have a girl friend.
2. He thinks he’s really doing well if his girlfriend can cook a stew
[there appear to be some substantial differences in opinion between the sexes as to how easy it is to prepare Japanese cuisine based on stewing, or "nimono"]
I think this is more about some guys being easy to please. Just cook anything for them.
3. He thinks it’s all over once you get married
In some cultures it often is :)
4. Even though he has a girlfriend he still goes on group dates (goukon) for fun
I think this is a reason to dump the guy actually. Might be a cultural thing, you won't get that sort of thing here.
5. Whenever he’s with his friends he starts talking tough
This is just typical male behaviour, it's also known as bragging. They call them trophy wives for a reason.
6. He thinks he can see his girlfriend any time he likes so she becomes a low priority
Good reason to remind him of his proper priorities actually.
7. He tries to impress with his manliness by eating large helpings and hot dishes
Just more typical male behaviour. Don't try too hard to understand it if you have no testicles.
8. He says he doesn’t see the point in marrying so he won’t marry
Lack of commitment, if marriage is important to the girl, either dump him or make him see the point.
9. He won’t ask people about things he doesn’t know as he doesn’t want to be indebted to them
Got nothing to do with debt, men have been stupid like this for like forever. Most men won't ask directions either. A lot of men also think they don't need the manual.
It's permitted to smack em in the head 5 seconds after they admit they are lost or after they screw up the situation from lack of reading the instructions.
10. He ignores his girlfriend and talks solely about himself
This is a good reason to dump the self absorbed loser. Being alone with himself is either what he wants, or what he deserves.
Some of that is right others seem like a feministic point of view
Actually, feminism is the idea that men and women are equal... This lady thinks the definition is that women should always be catered to. What she dosn't realize is that this is chauvinism.
> I think this is more about a person breathing a sigh of relief ie thank god I finally have a girl friend.
Nah, loads of guys want to 'secure' a relationship with some girls they deem worthwhile. Once they proved themselves they won this seducing hunt, though, they will tend to make little more effort.
Technically it's only natural to start feeling an established situation as natural, but not everyone tried so hard as to be called desperate.
> 4. Even though he has a girlfriend he still goes on group dates (goukon) for fun
>
> I think this is a reason to dump the guy actually. Might be a cultural thing, you won't get that sort of thing here.
Just having multiple boy/girlfriends is rather accepted in this culture anyway. Given this, why it should be a mystery why anyone continues to attend group dates just because they have at least one boy/girlfriend, I can't begin to imagine.
> 5. Whenever he’s with his friends he starts talking tough
>
> This is just typical male behaviour, it's also known as bragging. They call them trophy wives for a reason.
Nobody, male or female, talk any the same within family, alone with intimates, or among different groups. That the change is to talk tougher rather than pretend you're so proud of anything you aren't, is not relevant to anything.
Though I admit it might be a mystery for one who doesn't like to think, it still should be obvious that any person, including oneself, does that.
> 8. He says he doesn’t see the point in marrying so he won’t marry
>
> Lack of commitment, if marriage is important to the girl, either dump him or make him see the point.
Actually, logic is bound to wonder how marriage is any different commitment than dating serious enough to live together and consider marriage? Oh, so the woman wants the man's money and the couple's house if anything goes wrong. Got it. Well, I guess there is *some* fairness since they get lower pay and it doesn't help working when you're the only one who can breed.
Not saying I'd mind marrying someone I'd love & trust and who'd want to get married. I just wouldn't see the point beyond pleasing our family with a ceremony and lower taxes.
Yeah we're different. But what about the top 10 trap mysteries? They are still... well, mysteries. If there aren't any credible surveys going on maybe we could gather some conclusive opinions here instead?
this is the eternal dilema
No, I just eat when I'm hungry..
marriage = hell
You're mommy and daddy hated each other guys?
Amen anon! How is this a mystery? We obviously don't like making commitments.
Nope. Men are reknowned for their ability to commit to worthwhile causes. We are commitment masters. We just don't like to sell ourselves short, so we don't just rush into marriage.
A man is not complete until he gets married; then he's finished.
Agree
I saw a shirt in Singapore before, with a picture of a man marrying a woman (in stick form) with the texts "GAME OVER"
awesome one
It is exactly this kind of "balls" mentality that is causing the declining birth rates in Japan.
"3. He thinks it’s all over once you get married"
Especially in the current social environment, this is indeed true.
*nods in agreement*
Marriage is one channel...
No pay-per-views...
No In Demands...
And the volume will ALWAYS be on High...
i see no point in marriage. all it is to me is one big ass bill lol. i rather just indulge myself in video games,anime, and 2d girls(i love 3d girls too lol).
It´s just for the money if your married you pay a lower tax rate.
And spends all her money on herself...
Yes, because she also works.
Yes, but does the tax credit balance out, or even allow to profit from you leeching wife?
Guess not.
Marriage = poison. In Swedish, at least.
Jag är gift = I'm married.
Jag drack gift = I drank poison.
The more you know...
Nice pun.
yep
haha you have been downvoted!
xP
It's game over once you get married.
the truth really is...
95% of all human beings are self-centered, selfish, cold, inconciderate, and unempathetic bastards/bitches...
The hunt ends once you get her? The hard part's over? As a guy myself, I think the hardest part is keeping it going, but that's if I think it's worth keeping it going. If it's not working, tell her. It's all about perception, and with such a simple and cynical perception that most people tend to have, it's no wonder most relationships are full of unhappiness. If someone wants to be with someone and then doesn't care anymore once they're able to and instead is looking for the next thing, it either means that person needs to grow up and develop some feelings, or the realtionship just isn't working or didn't work out.
If she would want marriage, that's fine with me. Personally though, I'd like a relationship where things go beyond simple things like sex and marriage. I think marriage for most girls is just another "shiny thing" they want, while for most guys it's just a tradition, a thing that has to be done, a family thing, a "legality", ultimately it's all just a social expectation, a preconcieved notion. Oh yeah, there's also religion and "under the eyes of god", but that's just for the religious folk.
Also, I thought "their fasination with large breasts" or something like that would be on the list. Maybe just "sex is the only thing important to them", which is just classic, hehe.
In Japan marriage brings your childhood back.
Men only get a small allowance.
What I'm annoyed at is the double standard comedians bring up, how they always have to call women smarter than men and such. It just isn't true, our priorities are different. We're like Lion prides, men want multiple women, it's conquest, the reason we're not as interested after we have the girl is because subconsciously, the hard part's done and the challenge is over. It's not intentional, it just happens and it's rare that we understand why. Women crave a stable man, men crave many women over time, and can love them all actually. Isn't it strange that the Mormons were actually on the most accurate track for following how we really feel with polygamy...? Actually other cultures have done it for millenia too, but whatever. Christian brainwashing goes a long way.
@alidan
This should definitely be given as a perfect answer to japanese women. X )
1) the hunt is over, he is in the door, the next time he will be excited is when you spread your legs if you haven't already
2) if your girlfriend can cook anything without instructions for it on the box, you are in damn good shape.
3) thats when women get to stop trying, you have him, so long as you spread your legs enough so he stays with you, your golden. but if the guy stops trying his best you bitch to no end, who wouldnt thing its over than?
4) that says all kinds of bad things about you, doesnt it? try working on your shit a bit more and make im interested in you, not someone else.
5) congrats, you found a person who hides who they really are, the most common of all people. now start a fight about it, thats always fun.
6) lets see here, see his girlfriend who wants to spend his money, do something else? he is like this because you want to spend his shit. try renting a movie, and show up when you know for a damn fact he has nothing to do. if you dont spend his money when ever you see each other maybe he will want to see you more.
7) maybe he likes hot food? not many people can make good hot food themselves, and if he has to go out with dinner because of you, he may just want to eat what he likes.
if he only does it because of you.. order a bigger portion than him, and immaculate him and tell him not to do it again.
8) who the fuck besides women would want to in japans culture... seriously who?
9) its embarrassing not to know things that you should, and he is making excuses.
10) narcissistic, possibly, but i would do this if a woman ran her fucking mouth to long about boring shit you don't care about, just to make her see what its like.
One thing that I do know for sure is that it is definitely not over after marriage.

read a bit more about what marriage in japan brings. most men are expected to fork over all there money, and get a 10-100$ a week allowance, depending on how generous she is. constantly work in hopes of getting better jobs, and by constant i mean massive amounts of unpaid overtime, generaly straining any relationship you may be in.
generally if your wife is any less than belldandy, marriage in japan is so fucked that its in no way worth what you get. and by all means for the man, his life is mostly over the moment they are hitched. granted they may have a 1 year grace period where girlfriend turns into wife, and that would be an enjoyable time but after...
and before you talk about not every wife is like that, you really dont know japan as good as you think do you? you realize that being abnormal is something people kill themselves never to be right?
so, out of curiosity, would a japanese man be more willing to marry a foreigner who didn't have all those financial expectations? who didn't care how much he made as long as he can handle his own finances, who LETS HIM handle his own finances, who is also willing to work to pay for her own shit and wants the pleasure of his company moreso than his wallet?
These votes only bely women's ignorance. People, frequently women due to their empathy skills, often operate under the assumption that they are empathic mutant telepaths who can read minds, and they make assumptions about others.
You need only to look at this list, it will either be the above error, or at least some kind of stupid quibble.
1. He was desperate to date you, but once you started dating he no longer cares
*She assumes he no longer cares.
2. He thinks he’s really doing well if his girlfriend can cook a stew
[there appear to be some substantial differences in opinion between the sexes as to how easy it is to prepare Japanese cuisine based on stewing, or "nimono"]
*She underestimates the healthiness and value of a good stew.
3. He thinks it’s all over once you get married
*She assumes she knows what he is thinking.
4. Even though he has a girlfriend he still goes on group dates (goukon) for fun
*She dislikes fun and thinks he should orient his outings around her and not have friends.
5. Whenever he’s with his friends he starts talking tough
*She assumes this is a facade, as opposed to, perhaps he avoids expressing his tough interests like MMA out of respect that you may not enjoy hearing about them.
6. He thinks he can see his girlfriend any time he likes so she becomes a low priority
*She assumes he thinks he can see her any time. She assumes she is a low priority to him.
7. He tries to impress with his manliness by eating large helpings and hot dishes
*She assumes he doesn't like spicy dishes or big portions. A lot of us do. Perhaps we flaunt it and talk positively about it to encourage women to eat spicy food and proteinous meat which is good for your health.
8. He says he doesn’t see the point in marrying so he won’t marry
*How exactly is this mysterious? A lot of women share this opinion. She assumes marriage has a point.
9. He won’t ask people about things he doesn’t know as he doesn’t want to be indebted to them
*Perhaps he simply doesn't want to burden others with his problems? Not everyone feels a sense of debt when they are helped, but they don't like making others feel put upon or obligated.
10. He ignores his girlfriend and talks solely about himself
*She assumes she is being ignored, when in reality, we generally pay some level of attention to you even if we may miss out on some details by zoning out. Talking 'solely' about himself is also probably an exaggeration, in all likelihood, she is actually ignoring what he is saying due to finding some of it disinteresting, and misses out on when he tries to draw her into a converstion about an external topic.
Marriage = worst than living hell! You lost freedom, money, what you like, EVERYTHING fucking thing!
I can make my own money asshole.
Specially because woman in Japan want to become housewives. So all the pressure of gaining money for the family goes to the husband.
So for men, marriage = hell, like it's eloquently said in the first comment by anonymous.
Now why won't women understand this simple logic?
But you have not worked 10 hours.
What women generally fail to understand is, men want them for satisfying their needs and would generally like to avoid all the encumbrances connected to it if possible.
Also, men like to be men and show off. It actually attracts women subconsciously only they don't understand it. Period.
I guess thats why majority of girls might go for the athletes more than the non athletic guys.
4, 5, 7, and 10 sound like the guy is being narcissistic. I think marriage and relationships are worth it but not everyone feels the same way or willing to fulfill their responsibilities.
Not to sound ungrateful, but why am I reading this thing anyways?
I mean, it's not as if I'd get a japanese girlfriend anytime soon here where I live.
Okay, what is so hard to understand about the fact that men try to impress their friends? Because that's basically all that 5 and 7 boils down to.
I thought marriage was about being with your loved one till death parts you? Well, guess not.
50% of marriages end in divorce...the other 50% end in death....i rather get a divorce
The smarter thing to do is before you sense a marriage is coming, get the fuck out of the relationship.
no actually, I see it like this: since the divorce rate is 50%, it's the same as flipping a coin. So when you're standing at city hall, she's all dressed up and ready to put you in the shackles of marriage, you pull out a coin.
Heads: get married
Tails: don't get married
If heads, you go in and do the stuff
If tails, you skip the marriage ceremony and just go to the party for drink and enjoyment (and cake!).
(and yes I'm ignoring the fact that it's all statistically uncorrelated and that if you get Heads you still have a 50% marriage failure rate, but it's the fallacy of the 50% failure rate that I'm trying to point out)
That's 50% of all marriages, but people who get married and then divorced three or four times drive up the statistics. It's more like 20% for first marriages.
Yes, during marriage, you take the vow: "'till death do us part". Then men starts figuring out suicide is the way to go.
same here...i think that if someone who is married says that marriage = hell it's because they are doing it wrong*or at least with the wrong person...*
> In Japan, marriage mostly has got nothing to do with love.
Technically speaking, marriage cannot have anything to do with love, in societies I know. At least not directly.
Just because a culture is good at maintaining the usage of only marrying when in love, doesn't mean that marriage has anything to do in the plan. The couple loved each other before marriage, and if marriage has any chance to make any difference, it will be to lower the love.
Indirectly though, marriage is the socially admitted way to make the couple acknowledged as a couple by society. In loads of countries, this means social help for funding a new family.
Because we all know bringing the government into love is always a good thing.
You apparently haven't seen any of the recent polls from Japan regarding men in relation to marriage.
In Japan, marriage mostly has got nothing to do with love.
Marriage isn't for everyone.
Side effects include:
confusion
headache
stress
loss of appetite
suicidal tenancies
emotional instability
uncontrollable outbursts
Please consult a Doctor before taking marriage
