Do men benefit from marriage in today's society?

Knowing that Family Courts are biased other than religion what do men have to gain from marriage?

To not consider the possibility of Divorce is Irrational.

    Married men have been proven to live longer. Having one partner practical eliminates std. Marriage gives children more stability and support. People that are married are less stressed, maybe having a stable home makes stress easier to deal with. You have a support system, at the end of the day your not alone, you know that there's someone to help you, care about you. Married men are less likely to have bad habits(smoking, alcoholic).

    So here's to your marriage, your happiness and your health.

    Marriage is a committment by both the man and woman which shows they can give a part of themselves. Being single can make you be selfish and marriage shows how to share, not only materialistic, but emotionally, caring, love for more than yourself. And marriage is work, but open communication is so important and makes it worth it in the end.

    Men and women both benefit from marriage. But both men and women don't benefit from a failed marriage.

    Yes they do benefit from marriage. People should not need to walk into marriage by thinking for getting divorced. Marriage is the glue that holds our nation together.
