I Am An Mra

News just in;

"Yes avfm ( a voice for men) is strongly opposed to marriage because the institution of marriage is nothing more than slavery for men. The same can be said for.having children. Father a child in this gynocentric feminist culture is about as smart as playing ba<x>seball with a live grenade. Marriage is worse. Most MRAs who aren't already married vow to never do so. This is why MRAs and MGTOWs are so close. We share that same philosophy."

This kind of puerile crap is exactly why the MRA is a hate group. It attacks fathers and marriage. What exactly does it stand for in a positive way, I wonder?

And here's some more showing that women can be treated just as unfairly and unjustly as men by divorce courts, and often end up much poorer than men in the end:

In addition, now a days many wealthy people insist on having prenuptial agreements before getting married. If men are so afraid that they will be taken to the cleaners if they marry a woman that they love, but they end up getting divorced later on, why not just have her consent to a prenuptial agreement that will ensure that won't be the case instead of refusing to marry and just stay single which often won't lead to a happy, fulfilling, life. If people don't remain single and are in a relationship, but choose not to marry, and to instead just be emotionally committed, they will not get all of the benefits that come with being married such as having to pay less in taxes; getting better and less expensive health insurance; inheriting if their partner dies; having their children not be viewed as illegitimate and suffer the consequences; being able to do certain things with, and for, their partner and children that laws only allow spouses to do; and more. Instead of doing a marriage strike these guys should just do create prenuptial agreements and have the woman they love consent to it and sign it before they get married. They can actually create a prenuptial agreement themselves for free. Then they will feel more confident and secure knowing that if the marriage falls apart their wife won't take them to the cleaners (which now a days is much less likely to be able to occur anyway).

They can also try to get the wife to consent to, and sign a postnuptial agreement after they are married, but if she refuses to do so their isn't anything they can do to make her do it except for threaten her, and/or emotionally and/or physically abuse her which unfortunately some men have actually been known to do.

The prenuptial is the agreement people make up and sign before marriage, and the postnuptial is the agreement people make up and sign after marriage. These agreements often contain terms that spell things out and can protect both the husband and the wife. They make it clear how the things that people might be concerned about if divorce occurs are going to go so people who are fearful or skeptical before getting married will feel more relaxed and confident. I can't help but think that when someone is fearful, mistrusting, and skeptical when they are getting married it causes a negative vibration which results in the things that they are so afraid of eventually actually happening. People often create their own reality.

So-called post-nuptial agreements are worth slightly less than a bucket of warm spit. In every US jurisdiction, the law spells out the basic rights and responsibilities of custodial and non-custodial parents. Even a lay person knows that a contract can't modify the application of law. Similarly, the division of assets will follow state law. Period. Only where such agreements do not conflict with the law do they have any merit, and that can be litigated ad nauseum. If you find yourself in a situation where you think you need a post-nuptial agreement, you are in a world of hurt! I know of a case where the attorneys for both parties actually refunded half of their fees for drawing up the agreement because they felt that the couple was disillusioned about the actual effectiveness of the agreement with respect to their goal of splitting liabilities, property division in the event of divorce, etc. Fact is, the law is the law.
