Being ignorant of the impact of the legal, economic and sexual market place dynamics does not make one make better decisions - it makes one make ignorant decisions.

And in these instances, that ignorance benefits women over men.  So, naturally, you are an advocate of that ignorance.

It is down right negligent for fathers/men to allow future men to make decisions in these spheres without understanding the laws and powers that undergird and guide them.

[b]Surely you don't believe a man should get married without fully understanding the potential consequences?

If you think that a man should in fact sign that "contract" when she can walk away for literally no reason and take his money and children - then you are advocating for men to make suboptimal decisions based on misinformation.  Why?  Because it benefits women.

Nobody can fully understand consequences of marriage and overly focusing on legal consequences is a terrible start for a marriage. It defeats the whole purpose of it, which is not contractual but psychological. You are optimizing your decision based on the one factor that is easy to quantify but by doing so you are letting that factor play an outside role on the scheme of things.

And it's funny how you perceive men and women within a relationship as individuals with conflicting interests, but then "women" as some kind of homogenous group working tightly together. There are very few women who care about the good of women anywhere close to how much they care about the good of their husbands, sons, brothers, fathers... We are not out there to get you, seriously - at least not any more than you fellow men.[/quote]
