Too many layers of psycho manipulation and game theory assaults on their incentives
Yeah there's definitely some of that, there are practical reasons also, like you just can't afford it
That’s the game theory assault. Economy is designed so it’s unaffordable.
The marriage also, it used to be a sacred institution not so long ago, divorce wasn't an option for my grandparents, for catholics of that generation and before, divorce was just not even thinkable. Nowadays a marriage is quite often only a gateway to divorce rape, and you won't see your kids and you get to be a slave, pay a pension so your ex can enjoy her new boyfriend... It's not like that everywhere, but in the US I know that there aren't just a couple of isolated instances of such scenario...
A man alone can live on almost nothing, once you have wife and kids... It's no longer just the story of bobafett and his ass
