[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let this be a warning to you men thinking about marriage: 1)[b] women file for divorce when the money runs out[/b], and 2) even if you (the man) are the primary caregiver your wife is still going to sue for full custody.

Here's hoping that OP's DH has some extra cash squirreled away so he can hire a good lawyer.  [/quote]

Women file for divorce when men don't have a job. Male unemployment is the number 1 predictor of divorce. Women don't like to be married to unemployed men. Is this honestly shocking to you? [/quote]

[b]And yet it's expected that men are supposed to devote their lives and finances to unemployed women?[/b][/quote]

Lol what?!?! Who said that? [/quote]

Everyone on this board advocating that the SAHM is providing equal services in a marriage...LOL. I mean it sounds like this dad is doing the exact thing many of the moms here do, a) no job for 5-10 years CHECK, b) no ambitions outside the home after babies are born CHECK, c) No gainful income CHECK, and d) slaving over all the kids when really their children are in school and daycare for 4-6 hours a day CHECK.

So tell me...what's different here?[/quote]

Men and women are not the same. Women will never accept an unemployed spouse unless it's a previously agreed upon situation where he is handling everything home related while she pursues a demanding career, and even then women would only accept it as long as she enjoyed her work (and not always even then); women would never accept this arrangement if it was forced upon her and felt like a burden.

Men, on the other hand, have no problem with an unemployed spouse when there is enough money, she is happy, sexual, and doesn't complain constantly.

I didn't make the rules. This is just the nature of things.
