Gentlemen, I poop you negative, that's the article title.
Can Men Be Shamed Into Marriage?
Can society get men back in line?

Back. In. Line. (Like the ants in "Bug's Life", right?)
Here's the (mercifully short) article

To get to the comments, scroll down and click where it says "join the discussion here"
I noticed that no matter how many men cited the divorce laws, the author kept coming back to "better courtship" practices, totally ignoring the point.

The guys over at mgtowforums had a field day with it, too.

So, teh wimminz want the evil "oppressions" of marriage?

This is the best answer ever, couldn't have said it any better:

Yeah, f**k that shit. One of the comments talks about how men are choosing to be alone, even though it's painful.

It's not. What's painful is the horrible realization that the mythical "woman" you have believed in for the better part of your life DOES NOT EXIST. What's painful is coming to the cold, hard, truth that things like loyalty, love, passion, devotion that you've believed in all your life up to that point are simply met with cold-hearted selfishness by the people you once took as fact as being able to return that. They can't.

THAT is where the pain is. It sounds so great and so beautiful and poetic and meaningful, all of these things that were once believed, but it's all based on NOTHING. It's lies, they're not capable of it any more, if they ever were.

Living alone isn't painful, the realization that it's your ONLY hope of happiness is what's painful.

Men and women will never be truly equal. Why? Because men will always be better off alone, and women just can't handle it. They've been playing the same hand over and over far too long - Shame, Victimization, Don't-Need-A-Man, p***y Power and Patriarchy. Well, we're playing a new hand, girls, M.G.T.O.W. and it trumps anything you can throw at us.

Suck it.
