WHY are you attacking me about my comment? Those figures show it is expensive to raise a child alone!

Well I wasn’t attacking you before, but it would seem appropriate now as you have ignored my allusions to presuppositions and direct payments to vendors for child care.

Why do you assume the woman is the one raising the child for the purpose of writing laws? That you studiously ignored my points only demonstrates your hypocrisy. You WANT laws, or at least courts, to favor women, regardless of the rationale given to justify them.

YOU, SIR, are an ARSE! PERIOD! You have no idea who, or what I am, or have done in my life... God does, and that is all that counts!

Do you really think the insults of some two-faced opportunist carry ANY weight? Men are not so vain and shallow as to be disturbed by the whinging of petulant chauvinist.

And as for me having “no idea” about you; have you never read the Scripture about out of the mouth (and doubtless the keyboard) come the issues of the heart? You give away FAR more about yourself than you realize; not only with your previously mentioned assumptions, but also with your reactions.

I think laws and attendant fines would be perfectly serviceable.

I’ve been saying for a long time our Constitution was not written to govern women as full citizens, and restraining their baser actions the way it does men.

The first thing that should have happened after women’s suffrage was secured is a Constitutional Convention featuring women of goodwill to advise what adjustments to the Constitution should have be adopted for the preservation of the Republic.

A person’s character doesn’t change much over the years. We mature and experiences shape us, but our true character is fairly constant.

So where do these women walking away from 20+ year marriages come from?

Face it, you pulled that comment out of your hat. All you offer is a plausible contradiction. You could care less whether you’re objectively right or wrong.

"...Typically, women are the ones who grew up dreaming of the perfect wedding and the commitment that followed. Most men just grew up dreaming of having sex with beautiful women. ..."

One is an unrealistic fantasy. One is not.

"...BTW, FIL was on my side and called his daughter a filthy slut, right in front of me..."

Wow, in a depressing thread we have a winner for Most Fulfilling Comment!

That had to have felt good, all things considered.

Women pay bills, buy the groceries, and make decisions with very little input from the man... along with all domestic work, WHY? Who knows!

Yeah, that's great. Shouldn't you be making somebody a sandwich?

I like 'em fine when they ain't all lippy and nasty.

Let's have some chips with that sandwich, thanks.

it’s not just the lawyer, it’s also her siblings (particularly sisters), her friends, her co-workers, and likely others who she knows


In my situation, my FIL and I got along great. The MIL, on the other hand, always complained that I wasn't working in a higher up financial institution (stock market/bank)... I have always suspected she had a lot to do with my ex cheating.

Sorry to hear, and yea, the peer pressure is pretty much unbearable...that’s the key difference between our societies and the traditional ones.
