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

[havoc]

No, you're going to be a mod.

 

[WODIN]

LMAO!!!!

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

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?

curling if you were married to a millionare and you make whatever salary you make.... you'd get half of her money. so it goes both ways.

I think it's FUCKING BULLSHIT how men get the stinky end of the stick , no matter what the situation, when it comes to divorce. This is yet another fucked up facet of our great American Justice system.

No offense, you have no idea what you are talking about.

The reason the courts came up with equitable distribution is so that there would be less litigation so the divorces would cost less to BOTH PARTIES and it would be "more fair". Problem is when you have unscrupulous attorneys who LIE to their clients about what equitable distribution means.

It means THE MAN will get no more than half the assets and THE WOMAN will get NO LESS than half the debt.

If there are no children involved it is cut and dry. Both parties can jump up and down and yell and scream all they want. It will only squander BOTH of thier money and make the attorneys all the richer.

When there are children involved the only true victims are the children as money IS SQUANDERED ON STUPID SHIT THAT WON'T AMOUNT TO A HILL OF BEANS WHEN THE SUN SETS.... BUT IT IS MONEY THAT THE CHILDREN WILL MOST DEFINITELY MISS!

Sheesh if I was married to millionaire I would literally kiss her ass to keep in that lifestyle. And really just HOW OFTEN is the chick the millionaire or the one with the bucks? I would love to see some stats on that.

Our judicial laws were totally manipulated by women to men that think to much with their thingees instead of their brains.

Bikini mom you just happen to marry a whaco. You should some karate crap and literally kick his ass all over the place.

I am so not going to touch this...

Do you honestly think that if a woman is home all she does is cook and clean from 9 - 5 like paid help?

Hmmmmmm, I guess being at work 24 hours and taking care of children should be worth what?

HOW MANY FUCKING MEN STAY HOME WITH THEIR KIDS? It if was so damned easy then why don't they do just that. When their wives have children, let your wife go back to work and YOU STAY HOME! This way both sexes would stop bitching, No?!

Hell I know women who ADMIT that they went back to work because it IS EASIER than staying home with children and essentially being "at work" 24/7.

Curling - tell me that you are kidding right?

And for those of you men who either stay at home w/your kids or who TRULY DO share the responsibilities of work and family with your partners I AM JEALOUS OF YOUR WIVES! KUDOS TO YOU.

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.

Oh I'm sorry miss princess of Elite, do you know me personally? I don't think so, and as a matter of fact I do know exactly what I'm talking about!

I'm almost 30 years old, married, and have a child of my own, so trust me when I say I know plenty about the how the world works. 5 of my very close friends have gone through divorce and only one has received a fair shake in court.

Example #1 - My friend Matt, married for 6 years to a bitch of a woman who ended up cheating on him. They had zero kids and he worked full time, she stayed home, and they rented a house together. In the divorce settlement this is what she got:

1) His 1999 M5 BMW
2) $1300.00 per month living expenses until she gets married
3) More than half of the household goods, all of which she did not come into the relationship with.

Now, you tell me how fair that is? Also, think twice before you accuse someone of not knowing what they are talking about, you are only making yourself look ignorant when they actually do. But hey, this is a fitness board so who cares anyway right?
