Why Do Men Joke About Marriage???
I'd like to understand men, a little more.

I've had a couple of men pop the question a few times over the course of our relationship. One went so far as to keep talking about it until I was exhausted with their "joke". They weren't serious, so it's confusing.

 Quoting: pool


The male psyche has evolved from the days of hunting and gathering. During those times, the most fit male foraged the land for the shiniest rock he could find. Of course, once the nuclear family's basic needs were met (i.e. food/shelter/clothing), his basis for preserving loyalty to 'his' patriarchal unit was to impress the female with a rare find.

So, infidelity occurred the moment when Hairy Harry was not able to provide 'his' female partner with a rock that was shiny enough to satisfy her selfish desires, so Sulking Sally sought entertainment from Horny Henry.

Hairy Harry started laughing because humans laugh as a reaction to anxiety. He could have reacted in a fit of rage but Horny Henry is larger in size, not to mention wielding a larger club than his weaker pod inhabitant.

In sum, it is a matter of survival...nothing personal.

I hope this anecdotal account clarifies any discrepancies you have regarding the male psyche, and how it relates to the female.

Marriage, for a man, is a loaded gun affixed to the head with a finger that squeezes harder as the woman dies but get what she wants. If one is not religious, what else would one do but joke about signing up for something like that?

Re: Why Do Men Joke About Marriage???
Well, you're definitely on the right track equating understanding men a little more by using an ape scientist meme.

I wouldn't be serious either because you aren't.

Good luck.

Men know what's what and you're just a play thing.

Just be fucking honest for a change.

Act interested and above all else, at least act like you want to create a strong family and devote yourself to that as though life depended on it.

Which it does.

Men are sick of fake bitches.

 Quoting: pool


If you're seeking opinions from those who would speak for all men, then you're only going to find bias promulgated by the programming and conditioning of the aeons.

If we're to generalize then I think, nowadays, there is a lot of role reversal going on. The dockets of the court rooms in America reveal how seriously women have taken the commitment of marriage for many decades. An entire class of lawyers has become affluent upon the desire to negate such commitments for any and all possible whimsically legalezed breach of contract.

Personally, I think that the current state of marriage is tarnished through the purchase of a state-sanctioned license to be considered to be married, and so the joke is on everyone that has brought the state and its rampant corruption into their union that is supposed to become something that transcends the machinations of man's systems.

It could be he is trying to test the waters. Ask the question to see how it sounds coming out of his mouth and to see your reaction to it. Presented as a joke, which is should not be, and gather reation to it.

I really don't see the need for marriage any more. I have been married twice and no one inside or outside of the marriage respects what it is supposed to mean.

Once upon a time I'd see a pretty lady and look at her hand. If she was married I would move on. Seems like no one does that now. It doesn't matter if they are married now. No respect for the marriage or vows.

Marriage is a three-way between you, the state's wife and the state.

It really gets awkward when the husband starts introducing her as his first wife.
