Imagine thinking this wasn’t intentional malice. For all imp gets wrong he is not wrong here. We were a massively gynocentric society 40 years ago, everything since then has been intentional subjugation.
Alimony made sense when women had kids and stayed home to take care of them, because they are sacrificing career and higher earnings potential.
Now? The cause having ceased, so should the effect.
Completely disagree. Alimony has never made sense because a women is equally as entitled to a man's earnings after divorce as she is burdened with his debt.
It's a very odd framing to say she is "sacrificing" a potential career/earnings. It's not as if only the woman loses something when starting a family and that the majority of a man's pay didn't go to supporting it.
If you spend 15 years in a relationship caring for the household and the kids, that's 15 years you are not spending on developing job skills and developing human capital. It's not really accurate to simply assume that the two are similarly situated after such a period of time.
