"Men are leaving the dating/marriage game, and it’s not by accident—it’s by design."

Women Have Lowered Their Own Value – Casual hookup culture, social media validation, and feminism have made many women less relationship-oriented.
Unfair Legal & Financial Risks – Divorce laws favor women, alimony and child support can be abused, and false accusations can ruin a man’s life.
Unrealistic Standards & Entitlement – Many women reject average, good men while demanding a high-value provider without bringing much to the table themselves.
Loss of Femininity & Respect – Instead of complementing a man, many women compete with him, disrespect masculinity, and reject traditional gender roles.
The Rise of Passport Bros & MGTOW – More men are looking overseas for feminine, traditional wives or opting out of relationships entirely.

Men don’t hate marriage—they hate the modern version of it. Until women raise their own standards, more men will continue opting out.

SOTD: Proverbs 18:22 (ESV) – “He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the Lord.”

How to Develop: What Should Men Do Instead?

Fix Yourself First: Instead of opting out, level up spiritually, mentally, physically, and financially.
Seek High-Value Women, Not Hookup Culture: Dating isn’t dead, but standards have to change. And men holding the line will cause the good women to rise up
Understand Biblical Marriage: What does God say about marriage vs. what culture says?
Be a Leader, Not a Victim: Men were built for responsibility, not running away.
Create a Legacy Mindset: Marriage isn’t about you—it’s about the next generation. Its the only thing that carries on after your death.

MARCHING ORDERS: What’s ONE area in your life you need to level up either before stepping into a relationship or marriage or in your current relationship or marriage... Identify and apply
