Marriage in the 21st century seems at first glance to be a road paved with sharp and painful stones, for men at least. And in many ways this is so. This small book aims to change that, by giving men knowledge that can serve as a strong foundation for navigating marriage in the 21st century. Topics that are covered: The general arrangement of marriage laws. What makes marriage in many cases disadvantageous for men. What women look for in a man that they wish to marry. Why the state, not women, is to blame for why marriage is the way that it is for men. How a man can best get out of a disadvantageous marriage. How a man should live his life if he cannot find an advantageous marriage to enter.
