[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh stop with the misogyny.

If women initiate more divorces or refuse to get married to begin with, it's simply because more of us have the economic power to refuse to get into or refuse to stay in a relationship that doesn't value us equally on every level (relational, financial, work load at home, child-rearing duties, employment opportunities, legally, etc.)

And, as a female partner who was cheated on, I can attest that the entire psychology industry is still set up to view infidelity as a "relationship problem" instead of the individual personality problem it is.  Both men and women use the excuse that they aren't getting something from the relationship.  Men have been using that excuse (and it's been accepted) for hundreds of years.  Men say women don't give me enough sex, don't make me feel important enough, don't make my home a welcoming place, etc.....

it's not misogyny.  it sucks to have been the spouse who was cheated on PP, I know as my exW cheated on me.  I provided a pretty good lifestyle, was a doting father to our children, etc., etc.  She still felt the need to step out.  Not a single one of our friends has described her as an asshole for cheating.  Had the roles been reversed, I would have been the lying asshole. But since she was the one, it seems to be NBD.  that's just a fact that I think many here can confirm in their own experiences.[/quote]
