“Would you hitch your wagon to a competitive scold who would take half of everything you have and then some, who could more or less enslave you to pay for their support after taking off for any reason at all better than half the time, and who has an increasing propensity to ruin your reputation out of sheer spite by fictionalizing child sexual abuse charges in order to gain sole custody of any children?’
What are your options then:
-stay single
-fornicate and hope no children or STDs result
I mean really, some marriages are very nice and do work out. Some wives are indeed horrible but so are some husbands. We all take a risk when we marry.
A really good prenup, premarital property held in trust and a woman from a culture that actually values motherhood and raising children over competing with men ... that might work.
