The ad is gender specific. View it from the woman's perspective.
The ad says she will WIN and get the HOUSE, which is more important than the closet or shoes, and says this in only four words.Â
Divorce is huge business...
It is still BS. Iâ€m single and I donâ€t use half my closet. Thereâ€s a quote from WOPR that lrrps knows that fits.
You must get rid of clothes pretty fast.  I just gave away a pair of dockers I wore for about 13 years.  The dang plastic zipper finally gave way.  I admit I buy stuff I sometimes don't wear much and give it away. But I wear stuff for years and years.  We use 4 closets here.
I had no idea I was hanging out with the Marcoses.
My wife keeps stuff from 20 years ago. I keep stuff till it's shot and give it to Goodwill but those Dockers were exceptional in holding up year after year. I just figured most people are like this. I'll probably give away stuff this summer that is getting thready. We really don't spend that much yearly to be honest, we just accumulate over the years and buy clothes that last. Eagle shirts, Dockers, Tommy, Perry Ellis.

It's BS because you're a man viewing an advertisement targeting women... but I understand your point.

(This post was last modified: 04-29-2019, 09:02 AM by lrrps21.)
A friend of mine has a son who absolutely wants to go through the meat grinder known as Family Court. He told me he has nothing to take. I asked him if he plans on being a broke loser all his life. He thought about it and told his father he's rethinking the marriage thing. Idiots don't think beyond the next meal.
I have a walk in closet that's filled with jackets, slacks, shoes, etc. I'm into dressing nice. I like nice, expensive clothes. It's nothing compared to my gf's closets - yes, I typed closets. She has more clothes than 10 women combined. She buys clothes and wears them once. She doesn't have to look at price tags, so she simply buys something for that moment. She has 5 full suitcases, I have one. It's hilarious and awkward walking into hotels. Two full carts, two dudes lugging her luggage around. She does tip nicely, so the bell hops don't mind.
Marriage kills dreams. I can't imagine traveling the globe if I were married. No way, no how. We're in Dubai getting ready for dinner. Met up with my older brother. We sat in on one of his lectures. You know the line from that catchy tune "If her daddy's rich take her to a meal, if her daddy's poor do what ya feel" We're going to dinner.

If prenups were mandatory before all marriages perhaps you'd see more people getting married. Especially marriages beyond the first one. First marriages are typically idealyc. You get past that first one and women become the hunters and men the hunted. In a way I feel bad for the women with kids that were left high and dry. She clearly has a need/motivation to hook up with a financially stable guy, but if I'm that guy I am running for the hills.

Sorry but I disagree. My marriage made dreams I never thought I'd have.
My wife has made me twice the person I am today.

Marriage can be a double edged sword. That's why it's best to choose your partner wisely. She may look great, but is she a psychopath? Anyway, on the one hand the benefits of single life are clear and obvious. On the other hand, if married people weren't making babies and raising them in stable environments, the single people enjoying life wouldn't even exist to begin with. I guess it's a conundrumÂ

Your dreams are not my dreams. I don't plan on visiting Orlando or some other burfle spot. I want to see the globe. I'm now at 57 countries. I plan on seeing 100+ and being married would not allow this.Â
I'm happy for all the guys that are happily married. I've said it more than once, It's a good thing. It's simply isn't good enough for me.

But have you even seen all 57 states? That's the real question.

Prenups are not worth the paper they are written on. Any lawyer can get them thrown out. It's an industry joke. Lawyers scare men into getting them while telling women don't worry.
Never have anything to do with a woman with kids. They are not yours. She will never see you beyond a walking ATM or pack mule for her kids. They are some other dude's problem.
No such thing as a single mother. She's either a widow, divorced, or a slut. Two by choice.

I've been to 55. I don't count sitting in a military cargo plane for 4 hours (HI) and I have no plans on going to ND. Well, unless Ozero invites me to HI for green tea.

Valuable information I never would have known if not for this place. Interesting. So if a man and a woman BOTH voluntarily sign an agreement/legal document, a lawyer can simply make it go poof?
