Odd that even the worst marriages benefit men, yet older men who become single again almost immediately find a new partner while women in the same age group rarely do.
It's almost as if the narrative you're trying to sell doesn't fit the facts.
@lyzl
Men in that age group are desperate to get married again because they want someone to take care of them as they age and women in that age group know this and now have the economic power to say no

A few years after my grandpa died I asked my grandma if she wanted to date again. She said, “I spent 50 years taking care of a man and I’m never taking care of one again”. I was like, “damn Grandma, good for you!”
@lyzl
This is not "odd", this is exactly the outcome you'd expect if marriage primarily benefits men.
This guy has so thoroughly internalised "getting someone to marry you" as a form of achievement and sign of worth that he's lost all ability to do logic.
@lyzl
Women who are old and single made bad choices when young. They swallow the bitter herb of feminism and discover too late it is poison.
But, a lot of cats found homes.

I oppressed my wife of 15 years in o following her dream career as a lawyer while I shelved my plans to stay home and raise the kids. I oppress her in to eating the meals I cook for when she gets home too.
