[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]According to government data, men pay 99 percent of all alimony dollars paid in the US. [/quote] I’m willing to bet that data is at least 10-15 years old and includes a lot of marriages that ended 20 years before that. I think if you looked at alimony awarded in 2022, a much higher percentage would be paid by women. [/quote] Two reasons the proportion is remaining lopsided: 1. Men feel ashamed to ask for alimony. 2. Women push back very strongly when a man asks for alimony, even if she makes a lot more than him - in effect women shame men out of asking for it. [/quote] Do you have any evidence that it IS remaining lopsided? Or out of proportion with how much men get paid compared to women anyway. [/quote]
