Why Men Feel Lost Without Marriage - Conn Carroll

Bridget sits down with Conn Carroll, author of Sex and the Citizen: How the Assault on Marriage Is Destroying Democracy, for a discussion about the history and purpose of marriage, why it's a fundamental part of what makes us human, monogamy vs. polygamy, how dating apps turn certain men into digital sultans, and how the decline of "I do" threatens everything from fertility rates to democracy itself. They cover ancient hunter-gatherer love stories, modern-day male purposelessness, porn and gambling addictions, why the government should be rolling back policies that disincentivize young people from getting married, why cohabitation instead of marriage leads to income inequalities, the magic of marriage in our communities and why it’s the glue holding society together.
