Marry me!

The author of this CNN article is either a master motivator or a master manipulator.

He asserts that men really want to get married. In fact, some of them fantasize about it. An excerpt:

Somewhere along the way, marriage and masculinity became mutually exclusive. But that stands in stark contrast to the dozens of men I spoke with, who admitted -- no, insisted -- they've fantasized about popping the question, getting married, even having a wedding.

I think the belief that all men go to the altar kicking and screaming is a slight exaggeration.

But in popular culture, it's rare to find an image of a man who's overtly excited about his wedding ceremony.

Do men fantasize about marriage?
