Long overdue
It does seem absurd that the responsibilities of only the higher earning spouse are assumed to survive divorce. Why isn’t the higher-earning spouse entitled to having the lower-earning come over and do the laundry or cut the lawn, or whatever they did while the two were married? Why does only that one expectation survive?
Yes. Because men are passed over in the hiring process. Men are denied college admission. Men get the mortgage and the alimony payments. Wife gets the house and the kids. And the dog.
Two things you never hear feminists talk about when they yap about equality: Alimony and registering for the draft.
Aside from the issue does anyone find it disconcertinv that you have to get permission from a bureaucrat before collecting signatures?
I don’t want guys OR women to be screwed. But what if you have a traditional marriage and the wife hasn’t worked in 25 years and the husband breaks all the vows? Maybe even abuses her? She can’t find ANY jOB? No one will hire her with that many years fallow.
What would you have this woman do? It is not true that someone who hasn’t worked for pay in 20-30 years can find a job. It is nigh impossible.
In most cases child support is commandeered as alimony, already.
They also need to bring back fault divorce too.
