I'm certainly not doing it Katy, thank you. I wrote an article on this subject but it's yet to be published. I do believe if patriarchy didn't exist most women would want to be married.
I've also noticed that those marriages that last long are usually because of the sacrifices the woman makes. If it were up to men, marriage wouldn't exist.
I do think marriage is unfavourable to women because they lose the most (themselves, their career and vision).
Loneliness can make people do irrational things. However, going back to an ex that abuses you is often because of financial issues or they were threatened.
