How Did It Get Decided that Women Get Half in a Divorce when the court is ran by men?

Like I said before. Marriage is bullshit.

That is all.

I think the children will miss their parents being together the most. I think the children will miss mom and dad and themselves as a whole family instead of children being shuffled between divorced parents. Ive never heard a child say "where did all of the money go mommy?"

Somehow I don't think that any children will miss hearing thier father beat on thier mother or threaten to kill her though they still hear thier father AND his friends and family disparage their mother so I guess they won't be missing out on much, eh?

As for the money.

Hhhhhhhmmmm Will they say, "Where did all the money go mommy?" Probably not. But they have said, "Mommy, I need this or Mommy I need that." Thank goodness because I have my sister to back me they have ALWAYS had what they needed.

I was referring to people who actually know how to pick a non-abusive person for a spouse.

Generally....

Many years ago when divorce was not so common, most men chose to divorce thier wives. As it was a partnership, all they had was divided equally. Man often had to pay alimony to keep the woman supported in the manner to which she had become accustomed.

Today, I think it's a farce. Over half of all marriages fail, and the woman knows that. Alimony has no place unless the man's bailing for another woman. Likewise, the only division of property should be on what was gained after they were married. Some women marry then later divorce and want half of everything.

Most women would get less if the man just died. Why they expect him to pay more in a divorce is beyond me.

considering right now there are more women than men in college, and if you equate education with salary, then soon women will be making more money than men.

This is not going to happen very soon.
Men are drilled by society and genes to try to be succesful, women are not.
Maybe the ratio will change, but i doubt women will outnumber men in financial success in the future.

And to the original thread:

Some deserve half. For example if she works to support him during university and lateron he dumps her.

All the gold-diggers deserve nothing, it´s a shame that it is so easy for them to rip someone of half his assets.
Best is not to marry without a prenupt, or better, don´t marry at all.

Okay so if the guy cheats then she should get more than half. If she cheats then she should get next to nothing. Gotcha.

Nope , if she cheats she should get nothing , not next to nothing. That is the original idea of the contract of marraige. Guy takes care of girl unless girl no longer takes care of guy.

What if the guy puts a hidden camera on his wife, then beats her up and finally threatens to violently kill her in front of their children? Then what? [/B]

Depends on the sequence of events , if she was cheatin and the guy put a hidden camera on her then fair enough , maybe cheaper than a P.I. Ok , the beating I don't agree with but if she attacks the guy first then whaddya do? I just don't believe that people are so irrational that he put a camera on my ass and yada yada fer nothin'....
BKM. I just finished readin "The Prodigal Son (of a ...." thread yesterday , it sounds like you've found a wonderful guy BKM , why on earth you would not expect such a giving person to remain faithful to you (as you stated on yesterday's VeggieLifter thread) and be faithful to him is a mystery to me. Without any disprespect here I think that you have major issues with men and are perhaps blighting your relationships (and far worse your daughters perception of men).Anyway take care , I think that you're an intelligent woman , you just need to let go of your hate.

Mandinka, don't you think if the guy had a hidden camera on his wife then he would have FOUND SOMETHING?

What if he put it up there and left it up there for a week AND FOUND NOTHING?

WHAT WOULD THAT MAKE HIM THEN?!

What kind of a man puts a hidden camera on his wife in their own home? IT IS ILLEGAL IN MANY STATES!

If I am with a person who takes care of my home, my children, my business NEVER EVER questions a thing that I did, where I went I gave him shit about all the stuff that never was done, and NEVER EVER cared about what WAS DONE then I would shut the fuck up and thank my lucky stars - NOT INVENT SHIT TO FUCK THINGS UP!

You are very wrong when you say that I have issues just because I will not hesitate to point out that "poor men" aren't always the ones that get shafted as all of these threads would have you believe.

How many threads have you seen me start that point out how much I hate men?

I always say that no matter how much I personally have been screwed by SOME MEN that NOT ALL MEN ARE DOGS. Because this is what I truly believe.

And even though I personally have been screwed thus far by the divorce bullshit and had to sit by and watch the emotional BS my children have had to go through I STILL SAY THAT I BELIEVE IN LOVE AND MARRIAGE.

So I don't understand about the "hate" comment.

My girls met my current boyfriend and had spent ONE DAY with him and they want me to marry him and for us to live in his country.

They are with their father more than me because I work a lot of hours and because regardless of how much shit he gives me by trying in a futile attempt to take them from me I STILL SHARE.

Hell, they even want me to have a baby with my bf after we are married! (Sheesh, everybody has me married already! YIKES)

Could you please explain this to me? Because it doesn't seem to jive with your current assessment.

As for my comments about dating - THEY ARE ABOUT DATING. As far as I am concerned until a man is my fiance or is paying my bills, he has no business telling me where to go or what to do when I get there and I would treat him the same. So I don't see what the problem is.
