What Do Men Enjoy In Marriage? by AntiChristian(op): 10:05am On Jun 02
Most women get married when they see something that makes them happy in a man!

Re: What Do Men Enjoy In Marriage? by Onegai(f):
Peace, Love, Respect, Wisdom, Shared Values and Stability.

A lot of men don't know what peace looks like so they think a woman who leaves them to do what they feel like is "peace".

A quiet house isn't always peace, sometimes it's "I've made myself a monster so now my wife and kids disappear once I show up and that silence is deafening".

Respect doesn't mean she never challenges you, she'll do so in love.

Wisdom: see, a man, no SEVERAL MEN, have told me that "the day I didn't listen to my wife, what happened na me suffer am". Biblically, your wife is meant to counsel you, good or bad.

Love: someone's marriage packed up and he began missing his kids but didn't want his wife back (he fought for custody). His kids always looked so happy with his wife in her videos she sent him and they seemed happy (in his eyes) when they visited. When he eventually got custody, he realized his wife was the reason they were happy. Even as he hurt his wife, her love surrounded him and the kids and once she was gone, it was gone. Now he's trying to undo what he did.

Stability: knowing your woman can handle things on her own is vital. Knowing there's someone backing you is vital

Most men are not forced into marriage or relationships, for that matter. The vast majority of men out there choose for themselves whether or not to enter into marriage, whereas the same cannot be said for women who, to this day, in many parts of the world, are literally forced or sold into marriage. Marriage, for men, has never been compulsory, making it of no need to ask this useless question time and time again. undecided

While you may be right but your comment is beyond the scope of this thread!
The average women we see day to day in Nigeria or most other African countries usually get married to men they are happy with!

Marriage, except in Islam maybe, has never offered men any universal benefit. So, again, it is ridiculous that a non-Islamic man should ask such a question since he is in no way forced into such a union nor guaranteed any benefits in it. For most non-Islamic men, marriage is not only a personal choice, but also the benefits or lack of them are determined by the sort of marriage he enters into with his particular partner. undecided

Sex children and nothing more.

I'm even planning to go for a contract marriage. You give me 4 children you go your way, I carry my children. I see women as a burden to mens life

Re: What Do Men Enjoy In Marriage? by iichidodo: 8:37pm On Jun 02
Marriage is just a social construct invented by 'simp' males to curtail the avarice of alpha males when the hunter- gathering system of human settlement evolved into agrarian civilizations of Mesopotamia,Egypt,Indus, ancient China and classical Meso America.More than 10,000 years after the fact we can observe that marriage has since outlived its usefulness and our socio cultural construct should revert back to the wild human settings found in the age of hunters, the age of heroes , the age of the Alpha male..

Family

Without marriage you can't have family

I didn't say children but family

No the difference
Re: What Do Men Enjoy In Marriage? by Fryx: 8:38pm On Jun 02
What a question.

Do you have anything useful to offer society at all?

If you are proud of the type of human you are, you will aspire to have a child to pass your gene to.

If you are a sensible member of the society you will realize children requires a parent to grow healthy.

If you are a human being at all, you will realize the human society needs healthy mind and you can’t have an healthy mind if you don’t know how to relate with opposite gender and people that have different perspective from you.

If the aspiration to build a meaningful relationship with people around you is not a thing to you, I wonder what is going on in that mind of yours.

Are you even a human being?

Men doesn't really enjoy anything in marriage but bills, provision,protection and eventually kpai in loneliness at old age.

Marriage was built for women to enjoy with their kids.

It is all a psychological blackmail to get you to be a slave for life while flattering you to think you're doing something noble and respectable.
Before, men thought they were gaining respect and loyalty (which are actually meaningless and valueless) but today, even those tokens are gone! No respect, no loyalty, nothing, but somehow, You're still expected or harassed into taking in someone to provide and care for them.

In terms of kids, that is also not a win for the man. Kids most times align with their mothers. The man is usually just there, no matter how much he slaves.

This is why in the modern day, men are rethinking the whole marriage thing....a woman must bring tangible value to the table -not the homemaker bullshiit, real value! A good job, a good business, willingness to actively contribute, not "my money is my money" crap.
Cos anyway, they no longer respect you for anything. So, they might as well bring money to the table.

Without "burden", there's no sense of purpose.
So, what are you living for?
Re: What Do Men Enjoy In Marriage? by Robertgreene1(m): 8:50pm On Jun 02
Here we go again!!! They enjoy paying mounting bills till death just to be called "responsible men" by a society, in which those that care dont matter, and those that matter don't really care. Please l'm not against marriage oo. It's a personal something. But you people should stop breeding like rabbits please!!! Overpopulation is one of our major problems in this country!!!
