Arthur C. Brooks drops a sobering stat on marriage & longevity (42-sec clip): When the husband dies, the wife is usually fine — often even happier. When the wife dies, the widower typically struggles badly. Why? • ~60% of 60-year-old men say their wife is their best friend •... show more

Widows are way happier than widowers after losing a spouse. Arthur Brooks dropped this on Steven Bartlett’s podcast: Around 60% of men in their 60s say their wife is their best friend… but only 30% of women say the same about their husband. Women tend to have deeper connections with friends, family, and kids. So when the wife dies, the husband often loses his main emotional support. Men especially need strong relationships outside of marriage — real friendships and community — so we’re not left completely isolated if something happens. Do you think men are generally worse at maintaining close friendships as they get older?

I spoke with Oprah Winfrey about what really happens when long marriages end — and why women are often more *emotionally prepared* to stand on their own. When men say, “My partner is my best friend,” they often mean their *only* best friend. When women say it, they usually mean one of *several.* So when life changes, women may grieve… but they don’t start from scratch. They’ve spent years tending to their relationships — so even when one ends, they still have something solid to stand on. As I say, “It’s not a deconstruction… it’s a reconstruction.” Listen to the full conversation on The Oprah Podcast or watch on YouTube ➡️

“The single most important thing in marriage isn’t love. It’s respect.” After 35 years with the same woman, Tucker Carlson says this is the real foundation: Men are called to love their wives. Women are called to respect their husbands. He believes respect from a wife toward her husband is harder to earn, but when it’s there, it creates security for the kids and real peace in the home. Without it, marriages often struggle. It’s a straightforward, old-school observation from someone who’s been married longer than most people have been alive. Does Tucker have a point, or is this view outdated in 2026?

Divorce lawyer James Sexton (2,000+ cases) with Codie Sanchez: "Women marry the man they want to spend the rest of their life with... and tap out when they feel already alone (even with him). Affairs often become the 'soft landing' proof it's over." "Men marry the woman they don't want to spend the rest of their life without... and tap out when it can't become what they envisioned." Men's affairs: "just dumb, bright shiny object." This 50-sec clip cuts deep on why men & women leave differently. Men: Ever feel "no options left" in marriage? Women: Recognize the "already alone" trigger?

When the wife of Bungoma Governor has only negative things to say about the people the husband leads, you know there is a serious problem in the leadership. How do you see so many bad things on the people you lead?

Married People: Have Fun, Be Friends & Have Lots of Sex. Married men, you are the only husband your wife will ever have (unless you die, obviously), who can satisfy her deep emotional and sexual needs. Married women, you are the only woman that can satisfy the deep sexual needs and desires of your husband. This is why marriage is a Duty Call, not a B**ty Call! Paul said it this way: “The husband should fulfill his wife’s sexual needs, and the wife should fulfill her husband’s needs. The wife gives authority over her body to her husband, and the husband gives authority over his body to his wife. Do not deprive each other of sexual relations.” (1 Corinthians 7:3-5) Both married men and women: Your body is no longer just your body; rather, you surrender your power over your body to the other person so that they may feel loved and fulfill their sexual needs and wants. This is Christian sexuality in the context of marriage. Christian sex is about self giving and self sacrifice; modern secular sex is about self love and self expression. Do you see what God sees? 👀💋💍

Scott Galloway said something quietly profound: Men need relationships and marriage far more than women do. Widows are often happier after their husbands die. Widowers? Not so much. Single men in their 30s have a one-in-three chance of becoming substance abusers. When men lack that anchor, they often spiral into online rage, nationalism, and blame. Women tend to pour that energy into friends and careers. Galloway himself resisted marriage and kids for years — chasing more money, more relevance, more everything. Then he had kids with his partner and said for the first time in his life he felt sated. Enough. Like he could go now, even though he doesn’t want to. In a culture that downplays marriage and family for men, this is a reminder that the guardrails and purpose they provide might be one of the most powerful (and unexpected) sources of meaning we have. I’ve seen this pattern in friends and family — the ones with strong family lives often seem more grounded, even when life gets hard. What do you think — do men need marriage and family more than society currently admits?

Tucker Carlson said something raw that cuts straight to the heart of marriage: “A wife who won’t stand by you in turmoil is hell on earth.” He says the real test of a marriage isn’t the good times — it’s when the husband loses his job, gets attacked, or things go wrong. That’s when you discover what your wife is truly made of. His blunt truth: the deepest desire of every man is to have his wife standing beside him. A wife who believes in you gives you strength, and that belief is often the key to success in life. It’s uncomfortable… but it rings true. Married guys — has a moment of crisis ever shown you exactly what your marriage (and your wife) is made of?

This is why empowering more women than men does nothing but kills the progress of every society. Women are hypergamous in nature. They take and hardly give and most often when they give (their) men, it's usually the men doing better than them already. On the other hand, men have no problem picking women from any kind of background and giving them the best of life. If you check the list of richest women in the world today, it's mostly through divorce. You hardly see any of them create anything from the scratch. And then you'll also realise that they're single. Why? Because they hate sharing their resources with men, despite getting the said resources from men. Most modern women don't even believe they're broke, they believe they're with the wrong men—what a mentality. EMPOWER MORE MEN.

"Men need romantic relationships more than women do—and the data backs it up." Scott Galloway lays it out bluntly: When women lack a partner, they often channel that energy into career, friends, and other fulfilling outlets. When young men stay single into their 30s (no cohabitation or marriage), there's a 1 in 3 chance they become substance abusers. "Men need relationships more than women." A stark, uncomfortable reality about gender differences in loneliness and its consequences. Do you see this playing out in real life—or do you think the gap is overstated?

In response to a question about why a wife should be thanked after sex, Rev. Eastwood Anaba stated that most married women have never experienced an orgasm due to their husbands’ lack of knowledge about the basics of sex. He further highlighted that men tend to enjoy the relationship more than women and, on average, are the ones who pay for sex.

Watch: UN experts got humiliated immediately after they concluded that it is Israel's fault that Muslim men beat their wives... Wife-beating is instructed by the Qur'an and the Hadiths (Islam's scriptures). This is the cause of a brutal violation of women's rights in the Arab Muslim world. Surprisingly, when the UN Human Rights Council was required to explain the oppression of women in the Middle East, UN "experts" tried to avoid damaging the image of Islam so they reached the following conclusion: "when a Muslim husband beats his wife it is Israel's fault". As you can see in the video, the fearless speaker Hillel Neuer (international lawyer and expert on human rights) refused to embrace their narrative...

Kings of the Road (1976, Wenders) "'Kings of the Road' (1976) is a story that you're not often told in films about men. The story of the absence of women, which is at the same time the story of the longing for their presence!" --- Wim Wenders Full Excerpt: "'Kings of the Road' (1976) is the story of two men, but it doesn't take a Hollywood approach to the subject. American films about men - especially recent ones - are exercises in suppression: the men's true relationships with women, or with each other, are displaced by story, action and the need to entertain. They leave out the real nub: why the men prefer to be together, why they get on with each other, why they don't get on with women, or, if they do, then only as a pastime. My film is about precisely that: two men getting on together, each preferring the other's company to that of a woman. You get to see the shortcomings of both of them, their emotional insecurity; you see them trying to be mutually supportive and to hide their faults. But with the passage of time they're no longer bothered by these faults, and when they know each other well enough they begin discussing them. As a consequence of that, they split up. They split up because, on their journey across Germany, they've suddenly grown too close. It's a story that you're not often told in films about men. The story of the absence of women, which is at the same time the story of the longing for their presence!" ('The Logic of Images, Essays and Conversations, Wim Wenders, 1988)

Couples where the husband earned at least $38,000 more per year than his wife were the least likely to divorce. That finding isn’t all that surprising when you consider how men and women tend to rank their preferences in romantic partners. David Buss and others have shown that while both sexes value kindness most highly, their preferences begin to diverge further down the list. On average, men place more emphasis on physical attractiveness, while women place more emphasis on ambition, resourcefulness, and income. So the fact that marriages are most stable when the husband earns significantly more than the wife aligns with those longstanding preferences. It also connects with something I’ve mentioned before. The people who most strongly endorse progressive, gender-egalitarian values tend to be college-educated, upper or upper-middle-class professionals. But when you look at how they actually live, many of them follow a traditional model: the man earns a high income, and the woman either works part-time or not at all. In other words, the couples who talk the most about equality are often the ones whose lives resemble a 1950s family structure the most.

.Ben Shapiro describes his wife holding their newborn baby this week: “It’s when she is at her most beautiful… and that’s not because she’s at her most physically beautiful – of course not- it’s because it’s when her soul is at its height.” Beautiful words. Many women would say the same about seeing their husband holding their little one for the first time as his tired eyes fill with joyful tears and he seems to strengthen to protect this new life.

“It is the men that are benefiting”… or how do you people say it these days? 👀. Esther and Feranmi are married to the same husband, and this is just one of the many issues they sometimes face in their marriage. Also isn’t it interesting that the second wife wishes she had more alone time and privacy with their husband? Madam, as how nowwwwwwww? In case you missed it, you can catch up on YouTube. And if you’ve seen it already, how did this episode make you feel?

Steven Bartlett asks: Why are 31% of young men (18–24) sexually inactive (almost doubled in 18 years), and why are men 80% of suicides, with many feeling hopeless and purposeless? Erica Komisar: “We've taken away their purpose.” Men once protected, provided, hunted—clear roles. Raising women was positive, but the modern feminist push often turned vengeful: diminish men, push them out. Now 60%+ of universities/grad schools are women. Men marry at or below their level; women only at or above. Result? Men feel discouraged, purposeless, diminished. This 3:06 clip is a stark look at how role reversal + imbalance is hurting young men deeply. Do you see this "purpose void" in the men around you? Or do you think the shift is net positive despite the costs?
