Polls: Marriage & Weddings

Polygyny is a man who is married to multiple women.

As early as 10k years ago, the average married man had 20 wives

I know a lot of men don't want to get married anymore, but for those who do want to get married and have kids, assuming you could afford it, would you prefer your wife work and put your kids in daycare, or stay home full time to care for the kids and make your house a home and a nice place for you and your kids to come home to?

Personally, my mind has changed on this issue in recent years. I used to think it was crazy not to have both spouses working and bringing in an income. But I've seen too many examples of the differences and how much better off everyone (mostly the children) can be when they have a mother at home with them. I've seen how much more advanced, well adjusted and emotionally healthy children are when their mother devotes so much time to them. I've seen how much less stress there is in the household when both parents don't work AND try to get everything else done after a long workday. I've also seen how kids, and their parents, don't get sick as often when they are not in daycare every day.

I realize it's not possible for everyone, but I think it's worth the sacrifice if I can manage it.

What are your thoughts?

I ask because one can get married and never go turn in the papers. In such case, they would be married in their hearts but not recognized by the Gov as husband and wife. Please don't say both but instead say equally important if you cannot pick.

From a for-profit blog run by girls telling others to be submissive in their marriage and don’t worry about careers! Unless it’s a blog telling girls not to have careers!

If you are thinking about becoming a submissive spouse you might wonder as you've read the article, what exactly is in it for you.

1. Lower chance of divorce.
2. Keep the spiciness alive in your marriage, and avoid the overwhelming boredom that plagues people's marriages.
3. Increased feelings of love, grace, and companionship with your husband.
4. If you are a housewife or stay-at-home mom, you will get financial protection and enjoy the domestic sphere, away from the hostilities of the career world.
5. Favors and special treatment from your husband, such as gifts and extra nights out.
6. Peace in the house, i. e., decreased fighting or arguing.
7. Lower risk of infidelity.
8. Ability to be your feminine self. If you are a girly-girl, this will be a given. You will enjoy your role as a submissive wife to the fullest.

I pay you 100k a year to birth and raise children

But if i think you abused or aren't exciting anymore them then I take the kids... And to hire a new nanny you have to pay me 1 million over the next 10 years

I also get to collect 10% royalties from all my kids future paychecks

THE FACTS

• About 80% of women marry a man who earns significantly more than herself.
• Most women get married at around 30 years old

All it is is a way to feel good, if in 10 years it doesn't work out, at least she can leave with your money.

Can you imagine working really hard to buy a house for someone you love and she throws it all away on an affair? I think it’s best to just date and have a girlfriend but marriage is too risky. You risk breaking yourself.
