I’m 32 and unmarried. As I see it, it’s a game of probabilities.
If I meet and marry miss right, there’s a 50% chance our marriage will end in divorce.
75% of divorces are initiated by the woman.
Women get primary custody of the children in child support cases.
So, .5 * .75 * .9 is about 1/3. So, if I marry and have children, I have about a 1 in three chance that she’ll divorce me and wind up with the kids. That is an unacceptably high risk to me.
As ‘mark’ said above, nobody would tell women that hey, spousal abuse is no big deal, as long as you make sure you marry a guy who doesn’t abuse you.
