A common topic in the world of men's rights is alimony. Basically, if you have been married for a certain amount of time and you decide to divorce you may have to pay alimony. The reason for divorce is irrelevant, unless your wife was being abusive and even then that can still be irrelevant. Even cheating ex-wives can be eligible for alimony still. This infringes men's and women's rights. No man wants to work hard only for some of his wages to go to his ex. If he no longer wants the ex in his life why should she be a burden? It also implies that women are weak, unable to work, and therefore must depend on a man's hard work to earn money for her.

Do I support alimony in some cases, though? Yes. If the man was being physically or emotionally abusive towards his ex-wife, his ex should be entitled to some sort of compensation and it could be hard for her to return to work for a while because of the after effects of abuse (PTSD, depression, etc). If a man is being abusive then he should have to pay alimony, at least for a certain amount of time. An abusive wife should also have to pay alimony for a certain amount of time too. But if the wife was cheating and somehow she now deserves an early retirement? No. If the wife got extremely fat and the husband lost all attraction to her and desire to be with her? No. If the wife's become a dick and her attitude has deteriorated? No.

We shouldn't have to be the ones paying for our ex-wives' early retirement. It infringes both men and women's rights, and it needs to end. If you are currently paying alimony, go to court and fight until you aren't. If that doesn't work, flee the country and don't look back. We shouldn't have to spend our entire lives as work slaves.
