I don't want to be part of the people that push this narrative so I'll tell y'all the truth.

Marriage is beneficial to men in several ways. Not in many ways, but in important ways.

I'll list a few that I can manage. https://twitter.com/Osi_Suave/status/1295816050009931777
Marriage helps to civilize men and give them a more immediate sense of responsibility. This is of great importance to both the man and society at large. Because there's nothing more disruptive to society than a man without real responsibilities who only answers to himself.
Marriage help integrate men into the more foundational fabric of socity: the family. It provides a special and well conditioned cocoon where kids can grow optimally. A family with two parents bounded in loving marriage isn't the same at all with a single-parent home.
Also as a man, getting married to a sensible and resourceful woman is one of the best things that will happen to you. Yes, she will come with her wahala but in the end, you're far more blessed with her in your life. Don't even go there. A good wife is a blessing. Marriage is good
I've seen women literally carry their households. Financially, when their husbands lose their jobs. Spiritually too. Women tend to be more spiritual than men. If you're a person of faith, then you need a person who can stand in for you. Who better than a wife who loves you?
As a man you need someone to spend your life with, just as a woman needs someone. Don't think you're exempt from this deep human need for committed companionship because you're a man. It might seem so now because you're young, smart, driven, and strong. But...
But you'll grow older. You will become weaker, less driven, and eventually get tired of many of these things we currently term "fun". What will you do then? You'll be old n alone. With your options running out. Do you want that? Wouldn't you want a woman who loves you beside you?
