@robprogressive Bad now but the workplace pension since 2012 should (if you've changed to equities) deliver more like 160-320k).
Needs to be increased still.
@Con_Tomlinson Not sure it should be for full insurance but I have long advocated that outpatient services should be split with a contributory 3% employee-state match for private outpatient insurance which should indeed be tax deductable.
@ICONOCLASTIAE I consider my fellow men under 30 to be retarded as choices for husband and father but I wouldn't consider it shameful to marry a younger man.
@ceraliza@unfairleverage If he likes you, he will probably take the view that your friends are also likely to be nice.
What your doing here is gatekeeping or lying about why you don't wish to proceed.
@Aduradara61049 Statistics are clear that nuclear families produce better outcomes.
That doesn't mean they should hate their mothers or accept good rather than great for society.
@deb_michaels33 A man may buy a burger, it does not mean that he approves of society being obese.
Hypocrisy is a thing however you can be self aware.
I know there are things I do which I would not want future children to do for example.
@KevinWo27654037@doeemix@luxemiaa That's a full blood test via a doctor.
Nowadays you can get like 23andme via the post which will also include paternity.
@Luv_Xcuses Some is not all.
As an average I would wager that the majority of men who are considered good beforehand are still considered good afterwards.
Humans typically engage in small deceits, it's not the norm for human men to hide their personality en masse.
@sugabelly The correlation is also linear. Virgins report the highest marital satisfaction and divorce rates close to half the average.
Ignorance it seems, really is bliss.
@sugabelly Academic research does provide us with that number.
Women in the US with 7 or below have a lower than average divorce rate.
By the time a woman has 20 men, there is a 75% rate of reported marital dissatisfaction.
@michellmybell1@AriesSunnyDay1 As the old saying goes, with great power comes great responsibility. If a woman is going to let you have control financially then my responsibility as a man is to provide the lifestyle I want for my family even if not right now so as a man, I need a plan.
@michellmybell1@AriesSunnyDay1 The reality is that most humans are self interested, especially with the collapse of the church. Unless the guy is highly attractive then most women normally only submit conditionally so men who want control need to provide an incentive to do what he wants.
@theBigMira_ Only true for attractive men. There is a third of men under 30 who have not had sex in the past year and would happily put a ring on your finger, you just don't want them.
