Neither.
If "there is no reason for a man to get married in the West", than in the west you are proposing either zero procreation or unmarried homes.

You think small. "In the West"...If "there is no reason for a man to get married in the West", than in the west you are proposing either zero procreation or unmarried homes.

Someone sell it to me. Sell me on the idea, of what as a man, benefits said man by getting "legally" married in the West. What benefits, and sureties does said "legal" marriage provide to the man, that cannot otherwise be achieved..? Don't worry... Ill wait...

I've offered no advice as to what Western women should do. Nor am I so inclined. I'm speaking specifically of men.Right. So logically, you are saying all Western women should remain unmarried. And what? Have all children out of wedlock?
Widowed. Looks like your wish was granted.I hope to God you're not married. Honestly, your poor wife, with a husband who thinks of marriage like this. You're not married....right?

Those are two possibilities. Or actually go there. Not sure the import idea is really going to mitigate the predatory nature of divorce/family courts. Again. Sell it to me. Keep in mind "Marriage" is a three way legal contract. We know what the State gets. We know what the woman gets. What does the man get? Who signs a contract that confers no benefit to one's self? Only a fool.You are saying there "no reason" for men to marry Western women. So what, all American men should import brides from where--war-torn Ukraine? Asia?

Not merely views. But countless first hand observations of friends, family co-workers, and neighbors as it pertains to what men are subjected to in the divorce/family court system.I'm sorry for your loss. I have no idea what you mean by "your wish". I was saying your poor wife, with your views on marriage.
Lol! Your gonna have to do better than that.Better health and a longer life.
Lol! Your gonna have to do better than that.

Still not buying. A gym membership, and good diet fullfill the same outcome. Did you read any studies on the life quality, and longevity of divorced men?You don't like my answer, sorry. It's an answer backed by study after study.
Here's one:Still not buying. A gym membership, and good diet fullfill the same outcome. Did you read any studies on the life quality, and longevity of divorced men?
When examining divorce, marriage, and how it has impacted society in all stages of our lives, examining the longevity of life itself and how it was impacted by divorce can help us understand the long term effects of ending a dysfunctional or unhappy relationship."There are countless other factors that go into life expectancy besides divorce, and even if divorce plays a factor in the longevity of one’s life, understanding the behaviors that result from the stresses of divorce and how to avoid them can better equip those facing the challenges."
I'm aware. I'm not the one who needs to read up on the topic. Young men are. And you if you're curious. But... We're far afield from ShockedCanadians dilemma...Here's one:
Studies: Life Expectancy Impacted by Divorce
Daniel Pearce
- Due to the health risks of divorce, life expectancy is impacted.
- Children of divorce also face risks in future marriages and face the prospect of unhealthy future behaviors.
- While life expectancy is not an exact science, there are subconscious cues that can be factored into the guess.
When examining divorce, marriage, and how it has impacted society in all stages of our lives, examining the longevity of life itself and how it was impacted by divorce can help us understand the long term effects of ending a dysfunctional or unhappy relationship.
Divorce and marriage are often looked at from an economic perspective. For those that get married, they find themselves moving up an income bracket and becoming more financially solvent as a household. For those getting divorced, they are seen as cutting their income in half, forcing both parties to downgrade their standard of living and budget their way toward a financial recovery.
No matter if that type of recovery takes years or decades, the time that passes adds up, giving those that examine that type of information the data they need to compile the results on their studies.
For others examining divorce-related data, the time that passes after a divorce is exactly what is being looked at. Many find themselves more or less susceptible to specific health risks after a divorce, and gender seems to be a primary factor, causing life expectancy to fluctuate.
Health risks
Many of these health risks, like cardiovascular disease, are affected by more women than men. According to a study at the University of Texas, by the age of 60, 33 percent of divorced women are predicted to have cardiovascular disease, in comparison to 21.5 percent of continuously married women.
For men, 37.5 of those divorced were predicted to be affected by cardiovascular disease, in comparison to 31.7 percent of married men. However, for other conditions, men may find themselves to be more at risk.
However, men face higher risks in many other health areas following a divorce, which can increase their rate of early mortality by up to 250 percent, according to the Journal of Men’s Health. They also face increased rates of hypertension, depression, suicide, substance abuse, and cancer.
