The difference: Courts likely won't appropriate most everything they've worked for and give it to a man.

"My one friend in particular is very aware of this in that she is afraid (and I think justifiably so) of men once they find out her house is more or less bought and paid for, as well as all of her toys and she has a nice pension AND HER SPOUSE/PARTNER CAN GET FREE HEALTH INSURANCE."

Afraid of what? That she might be seen as an excellent candidate for marriage? Realistically, she's a woman, she wouldn't lose the house she brought into the marriage (esp. if she has kids). And the health insurance is only available to the person who STAYS married to her.

While it may be a new thing for women to be sized up for the financial assets they bring to the partnership, I suspect we'll survive the cultural shift. People who are interested in forming lifelong partnerships and having babies SHOULD be asking questions like "where will we live?" and "will we be able to afford healthcare?"

gee how disgusting that men have to be on the lookout for women who are only interested in their money. oh wait, sorry, did I get the genders reversed in that sentence?

equality's not so fun when it's a shit aspect of life is it
