Marriage - How does it benifit men?

[Mish]

I don't know what there is to argue about. Most of you here who want to have kids will get married simply because marriage is part of our culture, non married long term relationships are not viewed as serious socially and partly because it's almost impossible to find someone who would want to have bastard children. Whether this will still be like that 30 years from now remains to be seen, but for now this cultural norm will affect everyone who wants to have a family here whether you like it or not.

Actually I'm married and never having kids. The fact is that I know that I'm a better person with her in my life, and that having both the legal and emotional commitment helps solidify my own commitment towards her as a person.

But that's really just me.
