Treat your women like the treasures they are, fellas. Count your blessings that you are't going through this life alone.
AMEN! Hubby knows he is the king of this house. I do all the cooking, cleaning, organizing, pay the bills... He works and then gets to just enjoy us. It's a very fair trade-off!
Whether or not an exchange is fair is subjective. What you a call a fair trade, I call a ripoff.
You might have been dead on the money in 1949. But for 2009 your model is antiquated.
So as opposed to being dead on the money, you really just a getting paid a lot of money (in cash, goods and services) for a job that would barely pay minimum if you did it outside of a marriage context.
As far as sex goes. Why do it with just you when I can do it with all of them and their younger and hotter than you. Of course if I can't get them, I'll settle for you.
Committed relationships and marriage makes sense for older (e.g. 40-50+) successful guys and poor guys with no game.
If your successful and or have game. Just hold of getting hitched. Ultimately your going to end up married just like the 25 year old accountant who has not game and just got married today. Two things will likely be different. Your marriage will have a higher probability of working, and you'll likely have a lot more money (which will add to the probability of success). Also, your wife is probably going to be a lot better looking. So three things.

If your successful and/or have game. Just hold of getting hitched. Spend as little as possible on women as you can. Ultimately, if you want, your going to end up married just like the 25 year old accountant who has no game and just got married today to the first broad he ever had a serious relationship with since he got out of college. Two things will likely be different. Your marriage will have a higher probability of working, and you'll likely have a lot more money (which will add to the probability of success).

This statement is a fact, HOWEVER the man she is married to obviously, enjoys doing what he does so why knock him. He might even have something on the side who knows. People are different

I'm not knocking him as a person. I don't even know the guy. I'm just expressing that I loathe the situation he is in. Like you said people are different.
My objective was to point out that whats her name's quasi-absolutist argument is weak when compared to an alternative perspective not derived from emotion and traditional gender roles but utility, economics and reasoning.
Of course, in either case the entire debate is subjective. So people can just make up their own minds. There is no right or wrong answer.
One thing is certain. The vast majority of empirical evidence favors the latter portion of my argument.
