Pearl - Why Modern Men Are Opting Out of Marriage w⧸ @thisisshah

00:00:00.000 You know, in bride price, bride wealth societies, people get married earlier and a lot younger over

00:00:05.580 there. As dowry comes in, it pushes it back a little bit, still relatively early for the way

00:00:10.820 we do things nowadays. So yeah, you start to see the sophistication and complexity in how society

00:00:17.420 exists. So I've spent a lot of time looking at this just because it's really intrigued me.

00:00:23.540 And now when I hear guys like Matt Walsh, Michael Knowles, whoever it's going to be,

00:00:27.680 think lila rose is another one they'll sit here and they'll make a big deal about monogamy and 1.00

00:00:33.280 about all this stuff but what they're trying to trade for is something that is really untenable

00:00:38.320 i mean she can just leave with no fault divorce i think a lot of these women that say they're 1.00

00:00:42.880 submissive aren't actually submissive i mean we're all growing up in the same culture it seems like

00:00:47.840 um and then you know the family law is waiting there on the other end to just really make it

00:00:53.360 tough it's it's really hard so a lot of guys at this point are basically abstaining from it or

00:00:59.760 they're saying all right the long-term deal sucks here what do i get out of this i may as well just

00:01:04.640 engage in short-term stuff or you know the woman gets disappointed because the guy's playing her

00:01:09.360 and then she's like oh i thought he wanted to get me he didn't want to get married there's all this

00:01:12.480 upset stuff going on because we live in this very weird gray zone where people want to have one

00:01:17.120 foot in and one foot out yeah because you know there's a difference between a guy looking for

00:01:22.240 for like a hookup or a girlfriend

00:01:23.940 and being on like the marriage market, you know?

00:01:26.880 So what incentive are they really giving them?

00:01:29.780 They're not like, they're not,

00:01:32.460 the dowry at least would lower the risk.
