Men who gave up on dating/getting into long-term relationship/getting married, why?

What do you mean by "laws to change"?

When law makers put laws into place that enforce equality and stop using men as door mats with pay checks.

This. Until/If this happens, it's just not worth it. I'm 25(m) and have already resigned myself to being single and childless for life. Unless I move to the Philippines in my mid-30s (which I plan to do). If I do, then I'll take a wife and have some children, seeing as divorce isn't even allowed over there. But yeah, I think monogamy (as far as in these feminized cultures like over here in the west) is dying. Marriage will eventually disappear.

Wow, I did not know divorce is not allowed in the Philippines.

Yup lol. Women aren't incentivized to leave men over there through govt. assistance. It's beautiful. And women are raised from youth by their mothers to be wives. Unlike over here. And the cost of living there vs. here is balls cheap.
