You are putting up the same prejudicial argument my ex'a attorney put up!
So what's going on with our ponds?

EXACTLY. Who has the better lawyer and did more of their homework before
they even
filed. Like men hide assets, women may have a PI following errant
husbands with a
camera.
In any case, 5 years after a divorce 75% of men are paying no support, not
even child
support. And women are consistently much worse off as a "whole" after
divorce. If
there are children women usually take time off and they were in a worse
financial
situation anyway. Women still arent equal in earning ability, not by a
long shot. I
have a friend who married a guy, got his house out of bankruptcy, fixed it
up, moved
her furniture in and rented her own place. well he went back to drugs,
she got a
divorce, he got the house she fixed up for him, all the furniture and she
had to pay
him support for a year. he never did work while they were married (OK, it
was a very
short marriage) and she was the one bringing in the money. So how fair is
that. so
when a woman makes more than a man, she will get the short end of the
stick too.
So why did she marry him, well she is religious and loved him and thought
he needed a
second chance.
I think most women are more capable of raising small children. not all,
most. and I
dont see that changing much. so women are going to get the house, they
are going to
get child support.
Feminists, OTOH, like my cousin, has one ex and another who is the father
of her
second child and she has made sure both fathers are totally involved with
the kids,
even to her financial detriment (she is a PhD physiologist) by remaining
where both
girls spend a great deal of time with their fathers. Feminists dont need
men for
financial support. Women who talk equality and run from it the minute
life gets
tough are not feminists. Ingrid

women are inferior, but because I know that the system pre-judges men as
being evil and guilty.
I even twitch anytime I hear women's right, feminist, and other similar
words. Heck I can barely contain myself when I hear those words, if not
for
the consequence of permanent incarceration in an asylum, I will give in
to
the temptation to rip off all my clothes and run down the middle of the
highway screaming! (Ugly picture if I may say)
