...take commitment seriously? One should be afraid of commitment. If one takes vows seriously, one should realize that this is a lifetime commitment made in the face of all sorts of uncertainty and unpredictability. Anyone who isn't afraid of all the things that can go wrong obviously doesn't take the vows seriously. Since American women initiate most divorces, it is unsurprising that they'd view commitment is such a casual manner.
A sensible man would only marry after much reflection and deliberation. And he wouldn't marry an American woman at all.
Besides, when the best argument someone has for doing something is to accuse you of cowardice, they are probably not thinking of your best interests. In fact, they're more like kids who get each other to take stupid risks by accusing each other of being chicken.
Besides, women also insist marriage is better for men than for women and that marriage is terribly unfair to women, so men are doing them a favor by not marrying them!
(I am planning on marriage to the woman I love by the way, so I am not knocking commitment. I am just knocking the nonsense so many American women spout about men's supposed fear of it. )
