Divorces are weighed heavily in the woman's favour whether or not she was the one that committed fraud, adultery, or wanted the divorce. Women can claim abuse without proof and the man is automatically guilty in the eyes of the law. Marriage is in most cases, a losing proposition for the man. I sorely miss a female companion but I cannot risk being financially ruined with another failure.
It reminds me of an airline pilot I knew that was living on a one acre plot in a mobile home, driving a ten year old car. He told me he had married three times and another would make his take home personal income nil...his entire salary of the upper $100,000 was dedicated to alimony and child support.
Males in California realize that if you’re married for 10 years, and she wants a divorce after having another man’s children while married to you; you WILL pay her alimony for the rest of her life - on TOP of the child support for the children she had while cheating on you when you were married.
10 years = the rest of her life you owe her even if you remarry, she still gets a monthly cut of your income.. UNLESS she gets remarried, and then you’re off the hook. Under 10 years of marriage only reduces the support by half the marriage time. Thus, a male married for 9 years to a cheating woman will owe 4-1/2 years of alimony, plus child support on her illegitimate children she got while cheating on you during her marriage. Why the hell is anyone surprised at this decline in marriage? A single male can knock up multiple married women and never pay a cent in child support. Married males (regardless of gender) without a per-nuptial agreement, are the most financially vulnerable, victimized, and gullible people in society today.
I beg Cher to get this information to her son and save Chaz Bono from the worst financial decision in his life if he is even considering (even heterosexual) marriage. It’s just not worth complete financial destruction.
