The primary misson of divorce courts is the transfer of wealth from males to females.

Why There Are So Many Women in the Fathers' Movement
Source: CNSNews.com; Published: June 21, 2002;
Author: Glenn Sacks and Dianna Thompson

" Three and a half decades after the rise of the feminist movement, American gender politics have begun to come full circle.

The feminist movement has always been aided by sympathetic men, and American women would never have come so far so fast without their support. While women still face many problems, those problems have received a fair and often extensive public hearing.

Today, men's issues--principally fathers' issues--are where many of our nation's biggest gender inequities lie. And just as many men helped the women's movement, many women are stepping forward to help fathers, forming groups like Moms for Dads and the Second Wives Crusade. Today women make up half of the membership of the fathers' movement. ...."

Excellent post and very true.

My ex and I made equivalent salaries but she got the kids and support. As far as lifestyle's, hers didn't change but mine sure did!

Dad's and custody, in the courts, is an even bigger joke.

In the early 1970's, I divorced my wife and gained sole custody of my four sons.

My ex was a registered nurse. I got not one damned cent in "child support". I hired a live-in nanny to watch the boys while I worked. I got not one damned cent in "child support".

Don't talk to me about "dead-beat dads". Let's talk about "dead-beat moms".
