No, Kajeesus is right. When men DO seek custody, they get it just as often, if not more, than the woman. So there's no reason to dissuade them - its not a sure loss.

But wouldn't men be more likely to seek custody in circumstances where the mother is an unfit parent? It still doesn't mean that in a situation where both parents are fit, the man is going to get custody half the time.

Wouldn't the infidelity potentially give him leverage over his wife in the event of a divorce?

That's something that's always bothered me about how these pictures characterize divorce. Like you can just cheat on your spouse and then get all their money afterwards in the divorce. I had a friend who was a libertarian and he actually believed this is something that happened all the time.

You might still be on the hook for alimony if the wife didn't work and there was a certain expected standard of living.

Although yeah, usually it's blown way out of proportion. Like the idea that you can marry someone and divorce two years later and lose half your poo poo. Which can happen, but you have to do a lot of stupid stuff, like add your new spouse on all your pre-marriage financial assets.

Fair enough, though I still think that the common perception that women always get custody keep men from trying.

I'm talking about situations where both parents are competent. When the mother has shown she's unfit to raise a child the father is more likely to fight and win custody, but most cases don't have a clear "bad parent". I find it a more unbelievable that a vast majority of fathers in divorce cases don't seek custody just because they don't want to care for their kids. That notion just feeds back into the idea that women are the caretakers and men play a background role in their child's life.

Do you have kids? If you have kids, divorce should be the most painful thing imaginable. At least it was for me. Though most people I have met that have divorced with children really don't know or give a gently caress what it does to kids because, well, most people are psychopathic, and chances are, you are too. However, if you do have kids, it's a different matter than if you don't.

You will destroy him in every way because you are female and family courts hate males. Chances are, your favorite position is in the missionary position and you've never once thought of someone else during sex. Chances are, he has. Therefore, you will win. The thing about having an ex is that there is someone out there who you loved with all your heart. Who you told every secret to. Who knows every weakness you have. Who hates you. As insinuated by my previous sexual statement, though, and along with the things you have said, it's quite likely that you have never had a dirty thought. You've never stole a bubble gum in your life. You don't swear. You don't like it up the butt. Yet he, more than likely, has many failings, drugs, affairs, kinks, embarrassing moments, enemies, etc. Therefore, when you divorce, you will destroy him. You'll be telling his mom about that time he asked you to go to a swinger club. You'll tell his boss he is a porn addict. You'll tell his future finance he's secretly gay. I'd say you'd have sex with all his friends, who'd bang you in a heartbeat, while none of your friends would touch him with a ten foot pole, however, you'd never do anything like that because you are goody two shoes.

If you do have kids, Uncle Sam will make him pay you to take them away from him. It won't matter if you cheat on him and told his kids to call another man daddy or anything. Uncle Sam is absolutely convinced that every father should pay their ex to take his kids away and give them to some other rear end in a top hat, even if you do that before the divorce.

For a modern woman, divorce is the best damned government program there ever was. If you have sisters or daughters, you should recommend they start planning for divorce early. The best path is to marry someone mildly successful, have a bunch of kids with him, gently caress his boss, then divorce in order to have the (ex) husband pay them to give his kids to his boss, who will fire him. Any proper divorce plan should involve the wife not getting a job or contributing anything meaningful to the marriage. The more the husband takes care of her during the marriage, the more alimony he will owe her while she is living with his boss who fired him who she started loving while they are married. Now in your case, though, even though you took care of him more than he took care of you, you won't have to give him any alimony. Family courts hate men. If you're a woman, you get more the more you were taken care of. but if you're a man you will only get share in accordance with what you should be able to produce. So if you did nothing for him during the marriage you'd be a poor housewife who he needs to take care of forever. But if he did nothing for you and you took care of him, the court will just say he is capable of earning millions and if he hasn't it's because he is a loser. Basically, you won't have to give him poo poo.

Now if you have sons and brothers, just slice off their genitilia and give them a brochure to a monastery. It's the only way to survive. Marriage is death. Your husband is about to find that out. He'll be owing you money for the rest of his life and give you everything he ever had even though you make more money than he does and are more successful than he is.

Anyway, you've decided you don't like him anymore. You are going to divorce. You are about to go through a wonderful journey in which you are about to find out that you are an omnipotent goddess. Your husband's soul is going to be ripped out of his body and poo poo on. He'll probably commit suicide, frankly. Don't believe his threats. They are a product of him actually believing that he is a human being and actually has some sort of hope for his future. However, he is only a male. Not a human. North American Grey Wolves have a higher status in the eyes of the law than he does. Deep down inside he may suspect the fact that his life is about to be over in any meaningful sense, and his threats are a deluded result of his belief that he has options and hope. The universe itself is designed to protect you from him. You, however, are free to abuse him in every way imaginable and nobody will give a poo poo.

When it comes to N-Europe the situation was overwhelmingly in favour of women, with my country actually being dire enough that a mainstream feminist issue is granting men more rights.

The situation is similar-ish in the Low Countries and in Germany (Though not all the states?) but not as overwhelming in favour of women, but as you go further South things are a more mixed bag, same with the East. Britain was pretty equal?

This all from memory from a good lecture on this a few years back from a Gender Studies specialist (why on earth y'all don't have a good academic -ism for that poo poo is beyond me) that specialized in this, so yeah.

They didn't talk about yanks, because she didn't care, but I've heard much the same as here (that if they aren't shitbags and seek equal custody, they can probably get it) but there's also the problem of how non-custodial parents are treated (these overwhelmingly being men everywhere), regarding child support (and poor fathers), access to children (custodial child moves far away) and other issues.

There's plenty of room for nuance and discussion to it, and none of it is coming from the MRA front.

This is the other side of it that often isn't talked about. It's becoming less of a problem but visitation is often just plain not enforced or a parent with primary custody (the mother, typically) can screw over the other parent in strange and wonderful ways. I've seen women do things like move, not bother to tell the father about it, then later mention in court "well he never comes to get his kids anymore he obviously doesn't deserve to see them!" or actively sabotage it in other ways. The other side of it is that you heard nonstop about deadbeat dads not paying their child support while ignoring that deadbeat moms exist as well. Plus some of those "deadbeat dads" are guys that fell on hard times but the judge wouldn't reduce child support payments. Sometimes support payments can become ruinous. Sometimes one parent or the other just decides to be petty and spiteful about everything and uses the kids as a way to get back at the other parent.

Aaaaaand this is the biggest problem of the MRA movement as it stands. A lot of early MRA stuff wasn't blatantly anti-feminism. A lot of it was fatherhood-related stuff or people saying "hey you know divorced dads want to actually see their children sometimes."

I've seen a few mens shelters before, like two. Because poo poo happens and sometimes dudes need protection and help in their life too, usually younger guys who get kicked out of home for whatever reason. One of them had to explicitly put up signs saying not to do this poo poo, that it wasn't a place for hating women, that if you were going to go there just to try and get people to be angry at other people then you would be escorted out by security. It's reaching an incredibly weird point where you can't even talk about any kind of legit issues that men do have in society because the MRA brigade will show up and ruin the day with "But women!" or "What about women?!" even though no one else was talking about women at all.

When I was an undergrad I was thinking about doing my grad studies on pre MRA masculinity studies stuff. I had basically been the only guy in an English department, and I had spent a few years in lots of classes which had put a ton of energy into "examining the woman's experience..." etc, and I had just felt that those readings made a ton of assumptions about masculinity and there were interesting questions to ask which could enrich the whole conversation. But then I realized that 49.5% of people in the "Men's Studies" circles are frothing misogynists, and 49.5% are obssessed with somehow proving scientifically that the more manly a guy seems the more he's really secretly obsessed with other men's buttholes, and then I just kinda went :staredog: and did something different.
