I see this comment above as black and white thinking. I know men (50 and older) in bad marriages with women who married them for their money and no longer want to sleep with them or do trad wife things like clean or cook even though they don't work or have caregiver duties. Not only will it cost these men 50% of their assets and a huge alimony payment each month if they leave, the wives themselves don't want to give up the status and the lifelong access to the comfortable life he provides. Heaven forbid that they have to get a job and support themselves. For most, there's no way they could earn for themselves what their husbands are providing. And these women are too old to take a chance on finding a high-income replacement husband.

If she's emotionally and sexually exited the marriage but happily keeps spending his income, why aren't we critical of her lack of integrity? [/quote]
