So you are also sexist Inazuma?

I'm too young to be married, but I know I'll want a wife who at least can enjoy some games with me.

BUT, I really don't want a gamer wife. It's my personal taste to find mates that "complete" me, not mates that match me. What I mean by that, is that I don't really want me and my girlfriend to agree at everything (only basic stuff, no racists or prudes), and I really don't want us to have the same obsession cause we'll end up spending a lot of time doing just that. I want one another to push the other to try new stuff together.

I look forward to seeing her smiling face every single day. I would rather peel my face off with a shit filled plastic spoon than miss one moment. Sorry guys, it is just about getting the right one.

He said before that he is Bisexual, so I don't know if that would influence his opinion, or if he's just being Inazuma as usual.

I agree with everything Inazuma said. I'm probably going to end up getting married though. My girlfriend is very traditional. It's important to her, her family, and my family. Also, she's very sickly and already takes like 3/4 of my money already. Half would be a discount even over the course of my life I'm sure :lol: . In honesty I think it's smart for a man not to get married. Half of relationships end in divorce. The odds that the tax breaks will ever equal what is taken from you in the breakup (being honest men usually have more money to lose) are slim. God help you if you have children.

Absolutely this actually. A guy I work with totally married a girl for a green card. Good point.

I don't think it would. I'm heterosexual and honestly I agree with him. I totally wish I were gay sometimes though. Men are just so much more logical and easy for me to deal with :lol: . Too bad.

I agree with Inazuma up to the part where he got all ranty and preachy, then he started just making stuff up(obviously there are some benefits to marriage legally, and obviously the implications about women in his post are rather stupid). But the core point of what he's saying is true. I myself already do all those things he listed, and don't plan on getting married(except kids, no way am I EVER doing that*shudder*). I don't need to. Some day down the line, if it turns out to be a significant legal and monetary benefit, sure, I'll head down to the courthouse and fill out the paperwork, but it's a lie to say it would change anything.

I blog about games and art. Usually both at once. Check it out at your own risk.

However, I just wanted to add that as a lesbian, I typically don't have to worry about my partners being interested in video games. It's more weeding out the vegans, feminists, birkenstocks, man haters, etc etc etc. Gaming is the least of the concerns over in my dating pool.

Just for a different perspective. :lol:
Oh, cool, I didn't know you were a lesbian. There's a lot more of other LGBT people here at Racketboy than I thought! :D
