I fully subscribe to the idea of the MRS degree. I once derided it too, and now cringe. The ideal MRS degree is when one pursues a degree that one has a genuine interest in, or vocation for, *and* takes the opportunity to find a husband at the same time. This is a wise and efficient course of action.
That said, it was much more realistic to try this in my graduate program as compared to my undergraduate degree
I'm curious if you have thoughts as to the origin of these Lies About Marriage. There appear to be a great many lies of this sort floating about in our society, with few people stopping to consider either their truth or their source. But they catch on and spread like a virus, until they pervade people's thoughts almost without them realizing it. I wonder how that came to be.
I’m sure that’s right for some couples but my husband and I both agree, having children right away would have been the best thing for our marriage. Our marriage didn’t truly feel solid until I was pregnant with our first. There’s a lot that bonds a couple in this phase. Now, we often wonder who is missing from around our breakfast table.

Thank you for sharing!
There’s wisdom here. Keep writing!
Another bad one: “Wait to have kids.”
