Normalizing transactional relationships. A Feminist Economist Defends Alimony.

Men that don't realize that marriage is very much a transaction, that's why they have you sign a contract with the government, are going in blind and liable to be screwed in the end.

That's why I married two college degree'd women with good jobs who both marriage retired within three years of marriage. From a business perspective for men, as this article is for women, the longer you stay married the worse your alimony payments will be. That means if you see the writing on the wall better to divorce early in a marriage than later. My first marriage lasted 6 years but I could tell my second one was unhappy within 4 years.

Very much worth reading how these psychos think. "I took time off from work to earn a degree and improve my future earnings while my husband supported me financially, and hence it is only fair that my husband should be legally required to continue supporting me until I finish my Dissertation and earn more than him."

Transaction implies the woman actually gives something in return. This is just a bs article justifying domestic parasitism.

Well now, that was one spicy comment section spanning half a decade, wasn't it?

The idea of a man getting married is a bizarre mindfuck to me. There are ways you can get better right in custody but that should exist regardless if the father is married or not which is what MRAs need to fight for. But i just dont get it. Your wife can wrap her tenticles around something even if you worked a lifetime to build it.

Remember, Theres no feminists in divorce courts....

When folks ask "why are folks misogynistic" and you answer financial parasitsm.

Makes folks real red faced angry... and then these examples keep popping up.

Look, not every mosquito choses to suck blood, some drink nectar... but when you see a thing with a proboscis sitting on your wall and it looks like a mosquito, nobody sits there and says: "maybe it is in here looking for some nectar".

Let's get real here, when the previous two girls I shagged, both grabbed the condom, whilst my cock was still in it, right after climax, that's a BIG FUCKING NOPE FROM ME.

...and that makes me look at the rest with a BIG FUCKING SIDE EYE.

And then I read HORROR STORIES of financial parasitism an it makes me think, BULLET DODGED!

Is that women's fault in general... of course not... but then again... sOmE mOsQuItOeS dRiNk NeCtAr RiGhT?

It's a real problem, because is it s proportion of women that are the ones doing this, and it is women as a class that get branded as untouchable when this happens. The real question is: What is the proportion of women that do this... because we know it isn't a small amount, and god help us all if it reaches even 1%.

As a guy who has had two near misses and got lucky several times... I don't blame women for this... but then again, when I wake up with a welt on my leg and it looks like a mosquito bite, those nectar drinkers become equally flat when I see them.

We have a phrase for this: Caught in the crossfire... and that's what is happening here. and it is only making things worse.

Now there's a non sequitur..."feminist economist".

For a strong, independent feminist like her, it's real unsettling that she's entitled more money from her ex-husband just to finish her thesis. Then gets a sharp turn to Reality University when she can't sustain the lifestyle without her living ATM.
