A team of economists studying a large pool of lottery players in Sweden found that when men win the lottery, they become a lot likelier than demographically similar lottery losers to get married (if they were lower-income and unmarried before their win), and they have more children. On its face, that supports the work-life-balance idea. But when women win the lottery, the only big change in their behavior is divorce: Divorce rates for women almost double in the first couple of years after winning the lottery.

Did they just unironically admit female hypergamy?

Men seem to use their newfound resources to build families, while women use them to exit families.

This seems like an inversion of common stereotypes about men and women. But reality is never so simple.

Bahahahahaha. They were so close.

No, it fits completely with the 'stereotypes' embraced by the 'manosphere' that that the mainstream insists are 'misogynistic'.

Women see men primarily as sources of income.
