Why do so many people marry the wrong reasons?
I’ve come across yet another stupid whore on the net claiming that she wants to marry her fiance simply for money and sex, not for love. 95 percent of women are like that in Southern California. Well nowadays, marriage is a scam for men and women benefit from it and the divorce.
Why do so many Americans give up so easily on a relationship or marry for the wrong reasons?

Life is too short to go on so unhappy…Women realize this now & don’t stick around like they did years ago.

Im tired of hearing men say that. That marriage is a scam for men and a benefit for women. Marriage is not about that. If people dont understand what marriage really is and what it takes, then maybe they don’t need to get married. I want to marry a guy because I love him and I want to spend the rest of my life with him, and MAYBE have kids ONLY if he wants me to have kids.

…Actually I know more women who support their men financially these days then the other way around. It’s very sad.

now a days people marry for any reason.. money, fame, citizenship.. anything..
can’t explain why they do what they do but i guess at the time they think it’ll solve their problems not realizing that love does play a big role in order to remain happily ever after..

You just answered your own question..
and if you don’t like it..then don’t do it yourself..why are you going to let what others do bring you down.

In the course of human history, there has always been a minority of people lacking in basic wisdom. This is not a new development, nor is it exclusive to the U.S.

Unfortunately for many – marriage is a "beneficial" advantage.
Many people marry for reasons such as:
gaining more money,
getting a home,
because they want a huge (overly expensive) wedding,
for sex,
and even (according to a story I recently heard on CNN), health care — no longer for love.
I’m quite sure there are plenty that still marry because they are truly in love with each other, but, in todays world it just doesn’t seem so (ie) the divorce rate here in the states alone.
By the way – great question!

When kids start experimenting with sex as early as 10, 11, 12 years old, what do we expect. They are all imitating adult behavior, and marriage is just one adult behavior that today’s kids are trying to emulate. They don’t have the maturity or even the common sense to put off their whims. Many of them have never given much thought to what they really want beyond the next fad, or any future beyond the next week that doesn’t involve a fairy tale. They are rarely held accountable for any mistakes they make, and they assume that they can get out of marriage as easily as they got into it, with no consequences. So really, what do we expect?

Well I’m from Southern California and I’m offended by your assumption that women here are like that.
Because frankly…I don’t think there’s a geographical restriction on that philosophy.
People are stupid…that would probably be why the do anything for the wrong reasons.
What about the man that says "I DO" to the red hot skank…knowing full well in the back of his head that she’s probably only in it for the money?
It takes two to tango…God helps them that helps themselves and if people don’t have the sense to protect themselves or the brains to take the time to get to know the person that they are agreeing to marry…then to hell with them both.

Reasons to get married are like opinions. They are up to the individual to decide, so there are no "WRONG" reasons. The issue I see is in communication. "If I marry you for money, then you expect sex from me." Its fair so long as both side live up to their side of the bargain. Its when one stop holding up their side that problems arise.
If you are only looking for stories of women who use men only for financial gain, you’re going to find them. There is definitely no shortage. However, there are at least as many women who marry for love and work WITH their husbands to achieve a better life. Your problem is that you seem to see all women as "whores" and "animals", as you’ve called them in previous posts. You are a misogynist, and that will always skew your outlook on women and life in general. Get therapy.
