This can't be true, is it? What if she is a former college whore or a club skank or a money-grubbing whore? The guy is going to get screwed over. Fuck that. I'm going to spend my free time warning others about falling into the trap instead of falling for it myself.

Again.
No matter what type of person she is, she's gonna rip off her husband for more than she deserves. She's gonna get the allimony and custody (even if she's a terrible mother) in addition to child support.

That's a fight waiting to happen. Best of luck bro.

You think marriage laws aren't biased against men?

Maybe. My point is that railing against them to the point of living life (seemingly) as a mean-spirited miser seems a bit counterproductive.

Let the chick take half my money. Shame on me for choosing the wrong one. Besides, I'm not really worried about being crippled financially or emotionally about it where it compromises every other relationship in my life. I can make more money. I can always find more happiness too...

That does nothing to remedy a corrupt and sexist justice system. Pretending like the issue doesn't exit won't make it go away.

Congrats on the impending nuptials. You would be correct - much easier to let the soon-to-be wife handle that stuff.

Hopefully your wife still puts out after you wife her up. Seen it happen too many times once she has you locked down, it's over!

Impossible with this one. This chick's appetite is insatiable, plus she's Mexican, which makes that physiologically impossible.

Yeah I know, that's what they all say before marriage.

It is what everyone says, but the data says the opposite. Google all the studies and they say that married men generally are happier, healthier and actually have more sex.

Counterintuitive maybe, but that is what the studies show. Not that you need to be talked into marriage or anything, lol.

I believe it, it makes perfect sense. Unhappily married men who could have potentially skewed the study before influencing the results toward the unhappy sexually defunct side, are already divorced, disqualifying themselves from teetering the scale toward stalemate in any study result.

LOL @ AlaskaHawks subliminally trying to talk me out of it haha.

WTH is a wedding registry? The wife and I just went down to the government office and hitched up. She sprung that on me while watching the Bama-LSU game in '10. I went along with it and here I am a couple of years later happily (mostly) married.

Even though you asked for it, you won't use like 90% of the shit you get off that registry....or you'll use it once.

Aside from some stupid soda making machine they had near the front, I didn't ask for shit. Oh, and this pillow chair and bed tray I seen.

I disagree there. I still have my nice set of knives, cookware, serveware, etc. If you register for arbitrary stuff, sure. But I have been married more than 8 years, and we still use all that stuff. Come to think of it, it may be time to upgrade.

That's nice. I wish we would've gone small. The trivial things some women (myself included) think they need or want...it was a lovely wedding and we have great memories, but the money could've gone towards a sweet down payment on a home.

Again, what the f is a wedding registry? Is it some list that you put together for all of the attendees to buy you something just for the honor of attending your ceremony?

It's really not as cool as it sounds, unless you really need the stuff I guess.
