| 1 | Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signs a bill ending permanent alimonyThen I highly suggest you don’t get married in a state where alimony is payable. | /r/MensRights | 13/07/23 04:32 PM |
| 1 | Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signs a bill ending permanent alimony"But only if you advocate for it going both ways which you won't" What do you mean? Alimony is payable by men and women. It literally doesn't matter what gender you are, if you were the spouse who made more, you may be ordered to pay it. 100%. I have a friend who is a teacher who makes significantly more than her husband. He takes on more of the parenting and if they were to divorce it would be fair that she pay him alimony. In addition, my pension will likely be higher than my husbands and I wo… | /r/MensRights | 11/07/23 10:24 PM |
| 1 | Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signs a bill ending permanent alimonyLol! My incentive to stay married is not financial. Do better. Men who are actually real men can keep a woman and don’t have to bind her with the threat of poverty. I believe in alimony. That doesn’t make me a misandrist. | /r/MensRights | 11/07/23 08:33 PM |

| 1 | Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signs a bill ending permanent alimonyYou obviously don’t see marriage as teamwork. Making money isn’t everything. Obviously you’re an incel. Real men don’t talk like you. They appreciate their wives. Plus I wont leave with nothing. That’s not what I signed up for nor is that the law here. In addition, I have and do invest in my family. Financially and otherwise. Have fun being celibate though. | /r/MensRights | 11/07/23 06:53 PM |
| 1 | Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signs a bill ending permanent alimonyThat’s not how the law works where I live. You live with it. I know what I signed up for. Leaving a woman after a long term marriage to fend for herself is immoral. That’s why alimony became law. | /r/MensRights | 11/07/23 06:36 PM |
| 1 | Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signs a bill ending permanent alimonyI wish roles were reversed! In my next life I’m marrying a woman and she can be primary caregiver. Also, I will have a degree this time next year. So I do have a plan. Also? I don’t live in Florida. And even if I did there is still alimony for 75% of the marriage. That’s over 25 years for a 35 year marriage. Divorce at 65 get alimony until 90. | /r/MensRights | 11/07/23 06:17 PM |
| 1 | Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signs a bill ending permanent alimonyIf a woman is married to a man for decades he doesn’t get to just dump her near retirement and move on without sharing some of his income.

And since a woman can decide to withdraw sexual access to her body at any time and leave the marriage unhindered, a man should be able to withdraw access to his income and leave the marriage unhindered. His income potential increases while her sexual and mothering value decreases. Therefore, she frontloads while he builds up his worth over time. The marriage deal is that they are together for life.

Men resent being valued for their income potential. Women resent being valued for their sexual and nurturing value (taking care of house and kids). Men don't get to marry women, use them for having sex and raising up the kids and taking care of the house and home while he provides income, and then dumping her once her "value" has faded while keeping his income value.

Some people have been married for decades when they divorce. A year or two is not going to allow them to become whole when they have been counting on their spouse to be the income earner and therefore concentrating their efforts on other things other than earning income (things which are often just as advantageous to them and their spouse).

| 1 | Thought of the day: the gender “pay gap” (really it’s an earnings gap) is just a measure of how safe, prosperous and economically stable a society isThat's why the financial assets accumulated during the marriage are divided up in the subsequent divorce.

We also tend to be raised to be more nurturing. And in most cases we are already the lower income earner in the family so it would make no sense for the higher income earner to SAH with the child.

Because fatherhood (not just motherhood) should be a choice too and no one, man or woman, should be coerced into parenthood.You should have the option. You don't. You can sign away your rights but you cannot sign away your responsibilities. Not even if the mother agreed. The only way out of this situation is her finding a new husband to legally adopt the baby.
