Seems like a pretty accurate illustration of the average divorce. It was certainly one of the most depressing things that I ever went through. I wonder how much divorce factors into the high suicide rate among men.

This so called "documentary" is no different than the Rolling Stone fiasco. The filmmakers started the project with a clearly perceived idea about campus sexual assault and tried to include the most outrageous stories as fact to support their preconceived views. They clearly either failed to do even the most basic fact checking on these stories or they simply chose to ignore any evidence that did not support their narrative. Calling this piece of fiction a "documentary" is the same as calling th…

The way they seek to "stop" domestic violence is simply going to make matters worse in the long run. When you combine the "you go girl" mentality we currently have in western society with the attitude that violence against women is inexcusable but violence against men is no big deal, then you wind up with more and more women who think it's ok to lash out at their boyfriend/spouse.

I hope that CNN's showing of this "documentary" film really does shine a light on this whole sorry mess. I also hope that the universities and the falsely accused students sue these people for some serious $$$. In fact, I hope that CNN and the producers are just as successful as the Rolling Stone.

Unfortunately, it looks like the only way that will happen is when more women have to pay. People in general just don't seem to care how many men have their lives ruined by these insane laws but let one woman be inconvenienced by having to pay money to her former spouse and it's front page news and people start talking about a need to change laws.

Wow! This case could prove to be very interesting. How ironic that a highly visible celebrity who campaigned against violence against women may become a highly visible victim of false accusations.

IMHO, most women prefer men that care more about becoming a partner than they do about caring for children. After all, having a higher earning spouse/partner is what allows them to have the option of spending more hands on time with the kids.

Uh... doesn't her feminist utopia sound remarkably like the lifestyle previously enjoyed by many traditional western housewives?

It sounds like you did not previously have a formal child support order established. If this is the case, then I hope you have proof of whatever financial support you have given her in the past, I hope you paid her with checks and have copies of these checks.

Why should gender even be a factor in this incident, unless they are trying to make the point that women should receive special treatment?

Absolutely not!!! The main thing that a university should do is assist an accuser to get in touch with the police.

The college rape hysteria among feminists has reached the point that I have come to the following conclusion: How can you tell when a feminist is lying? When you see them quoting statistics about sexual assault on college campuses.

Divorced male here. IMHO, marriage in modern western society has very little to offer men and comes with a great many risks. I would say that it is probably only worth the risk if you plan on having children. While divorced fathers still routinely get shafted in our so-called "family court" system, it appears that we still have more parental rights than fathers who never marry. Otherwise, if no plans to have children then I see no point in marriage.

Approximately 50% of all marriages end in divorce and it's women who file for divorce in roughly 70% of these cases and yet we are supposed to believe that it's all the fault of men? Seriously?

Sorry, but it is as simple as no means no. If someone doesn't want to have sex then they owe it to BOTH themselves and the other party to make this clear. It really doesn't take much effort to say no, most humans are quite proficient at saying no by the age of 2. While I believe the author did the right thing (and probably the smart thing) by not having sex with the woman, I hope that he is not implying that it would have been rape if he had under these circumstances.

Actually, I believe that there are signs of improvement in both areas. For the most part, family courts in the US are controlled by state and local laws, so the results in this area are not consistent throughout the country but several states have recently made improvements including alimony reform and child custody issues. VAWA is more of a federal issue and it has been around since 1994. This year is the first time that it has faced serious questions. So yes, I see evidence of improvements.

Why did this woman still have custody of the child after she was arrested for a domestic violence incident?

Why? Do you make the same distinction about whether or not to classify an adult female as a "woman" ? The word "man" is a noun not an adjective.

IMHO, the author is correct about the importance to children of a stable 2 parent family. What most of these people fail to properly address is the real reasons why marriage is headed towards extinction, therefore most of their proposed solutions are nothing more than a bunch of hot air. You simply can not devise a proper solution to a problem until you understand the root causes of the problem.

Please allow me to part the curtain of denial and reveal the truth for you. Marriage 2.0 is not just what you make of it, it is what you, your partner and the law make of it. As it has been pointed out many times by many sources, the divorce rate has hovered around 50% for many years. Furthermore, 70% of these divorces are initiated by women so I seriously doubt that marriage is just what men make of it.

As a modern male and long time supporter of equality between the sexes, my divorce with the accompanying child custody and child support issues was a major red pill moment for me.

The problem is how these programs were implemented in the US. They were set up so that women could only get $ if they had children with no father in the home to provide financial support.

When it comes to divorce, there is definitely a double standard in assigning blame and providing support. No matter who instigated the divorce, the man will typically be blamed. He either did something wrong or didn't do something right. There are usually plenty of people and organizations that are willing to provide moral and even financial support to women in these situations. The man is typically ostracised from his family and since he rarely ever gets primary custody of his childrenn (even i…

Translation: NOW opposes anything that admits that men are sometimes victims of domestic violence and women are sometimes the abuser. Since NOW vehemently denies that any female would ever lie about abuse, NOW opposes anything that upholds the constitutional rights of those accused of abuse. NOW opposes anything that would require accountability for VAWA programs.

Good article from Huffington Post. Glad to see people taking a stand against double standards like this. It sounds like Hollyweird might actually be forced to learn a lesson from this one, especially if they end doing poorly at the box office.

Seriously? You don't see how having laws in place that value a father's relationship with his children benefits men? You think that NOW's position that basically says that women should be the default gatekeeper for children provides more benefit to men? Do you also fail to see the benefit to men for modifying VAWA to ensure that male victims of dv are provided for? Do you fail to see the benefit of attempting to provide protection against false accusations and abuse of the system? Fortunately, t…

As someone who has spent several years actually working with a couple of father's rights and men's rights groups to try and change some of the laws to make them more equitable for both men and women, I can tell you that there have consistently been 2 groups that have fought viciously against virtually every one of our efforts... feminists and divorce attorneys. Simply look at any of the recent efforts to implement shared parenting after divorce or the recent efforts to provide minor reforms to V…

Funny article. But it seems to me that while some things have changed, 2012 still seems a lot like the 1950's and 1960's when it comes to society's and women's expectations of men. I don't think that any advice columnist would dare advise a young woman to give up sports or any activity that she wants to pursue. Too bad we can't say the same about the activities that young men enjoy. It also seems that a lot of people still expect guys to pay for everything.

Excellent article by Dr. T! IMHO, this is one of the best articles she has ever written and should be required reading for everyone.

Hmmm... I wonder how many of these folks involved in this debate would like to explain their position to Brian Banks or the families of the Duke students who were falsely accused of rape or the hundreds of men who have been freed by the innocence project?

"Legitimate" debate? Exactly what defines a legitimate debate about disrupting the established legal safeguards that help protect innocent people from being railroaded by idealogues with an axe to grind? Rape is a serious charge that involves serious consequences. Just as with any accusation of criminal activity, no one should be convicted of a charge like this without proof beyond a reasonable doubt.

Oh yes, feminism is all about equality for women and men. /s.

If it happened the way these guys claim, then I hope that they do get a huge amount of $ from the cruise line. The only way to get big companies like this to pay attention is to cause them to loose huge sums of $. If their claims are true, then I hope they also sue the accuser. I am sick and tired of hearing about women making false accusations without any repercussions for their attempts to ruin a man's life.

Sorry to hear about the divorce and everything you went through. Been there, done that. I know it sounds crazy but 17k is nothing compared to what it could have been. Depending on what state you divorce in and the divorce/alimony laws of the state, you could have been forced to support an able-bodied adult for the rest of your life. I would consider the 17k to be an educational expense (my educational experience cost much more). I tried to learn from it and have not repeated the same actions tha…

Yep. These "geniuses" are simply trying to put a more pc spin on the root causes of the problems that young men face. We have plenty of objective research to show that children generaly do better when their father is actively involved in their lives but we would rather do everything we can to limit fathers' access to their children and then blame video games and porn when those children experience problems. Articles like this are either the height of hypocrisy or the height of stupidity.

You didn't answer my question and the author was clearly not interested in what the individual goals of young men are. Again, has any of these genuises ever bothered to ask young men about their hopes and dreams or why they engage in certain activities and not in others? This guy sounds too much like the character from the movie "The Music Man." He's here to warn us about trouble in River City and he selling the cure. To the author's credit, he did briefly touch on some of the real issues that a…

What do you think is more effective? Finding what inhibits young men's motivation to behave the way society expects them to or limiting their access to the activities they want to participate in. Does anyone seriously believe that society can inspire young men to work harder, get married and support a family by limiting access to porn and video games?

Proof once again of how little society values a father's involvement with his own children. And yet the geniuses in the so called "mainstream media" would rather blame video games and porn for men's reluctance to marry.

Like most of these people who have recently written about young men opting out of sociiety, the authur completely misses the point. He takes the easy way out by focusing on the symptoms and ignoring the root cause. "Mainstream" society would rather pretend that video games and porn are the main cause of mens' reluctance to become wage slaves and cannon fodder instead of owning up to the real causes. Why don't these geniuses simply talk to guys and ask them why they don't want to join the rat rac…

So it's okay for boys to wear makeup but God forbid that a young man should want to work in a day care or a father should want to have custody of his own children. We sure do live in a schizo society.

IMHO, the problem isn't so much marriage itself as it is the way that it is currently practiced in most of western society. It seems to me that this is the central theme of the OP. If marriage 2.0 was perceived as beneficial to young men, they would be lining up in droves to get married. When the divorce rate consistantly remains around 50% and when women consistantly initiate 70% of these divorces then it's not hard to predict that virtually every young male in western society has at least one …

Lol, then the "problem" with video games will self-correct as these benefits run out, unless these young men turn to crime to pay for their next "fix."

Uh... last time I looked, video games and the hardware required to play them are not cheap. If video games are causing young men to avoid employment, then how are they able to afford the games?

$150,000.00 just to have supervised visitation with his own child? And the talking heads at the so called "mainstream media" wonder why fewer and fewer young men want anything to do with marriage 2.0? In the US, in state after state, whenever shared parenting legislation is introduced, there are always 2 groups that can be counted on to fight against it tooth and nail... feminists and divorce attorneys. Ever wonder why? Just follow the money trail.

I strongly agree. In fact, I believe that we are starting to see this happen now. Notice how nervous the rad fems have gotten lately?

As several others have stated, the problem with no fault divorce is the way it was implemented it automatically treats the man as if he were at fault. His actions during the marriage, good or bad, usually have no impact on whether or not he will be forced to be financially responsible for his former spouse after the divorce. Likewise her actions during the marriage, good or bad, usually are not a factor in determining whether or not she is eligible to depend upon a lifetime of financial support.…

Basically it's an attempt to rationalize the fact that the majority of divorces are initiated by women. Bottom line: woman = good, man = bad

Evidently they only consider it "hate speech" when it doesn't agree with their political views. Hmmm... now does anyone know the definition of hypocrisy?

As someone who has experience with this scenario, I would say that generally the probability is about 37.5% in the USA. Within my own circle of friends, it has been about 85%.
