A coworker I was friends with, once told me " today would have been parole day".

20 years earlier to the day, he came home to literally an empty house and empty bank accounts.

He was carpooling and she took both cars. Her boyfriend and his now Ex wife planned it for months.

As soon as he left for work ( construction 12 hour days) the boyfriend pulled in with a U-Haul.

For a few weeks he had to borrow money and ask for rides.

My ex planned for months to take my boys out of state on Father's Day weekend and have me served with divorce papers.


I don't love my house. I don't love my cars. I don't love my bank accounts. If she had taken all of that and left my boys, it would have been infinity better than what she did.

Jesus Christ, SOME women are complete pieces of *****

For every sob story a woman wants to tell about how she was wronged by a man, there are like 10-15 for how some crazy **** completely ****ed over a guy.

Most women have no conscience.

You think women screw over men 10-15x more often than the reverse? Like, actually?

Had a coworker that held several jobs so his wife could stay home with the kids. He got the flu one time, pretty much knocked out due to it. He stayed in the upstair part of his apartment so as not to get anyone else sick. His trash wife moved everything out of the apartment, took the kids and left with another dude. My coworker didn't find out until he felt well enough to come down stairs to an empty apartment.

Dead even and 10-15 to 1 is incredibly different. Of course it's roughly even, doing bad things is not gender dependent. And depending how far back in time you want to go, men historically have perpetrated way worse things on women than the reverse.

Women initiate 90% of divorces.

Women are awarded custody 80% of the time.

All a woman has to do in order to keep the father away is allege child abuse.

It has been genetically shown that somewhere between 15 and 20 % of all children have fathers other than who is on the birth certificate. And in alot of states once ur name is on the birth certificate, you cannot rescind your parental responsibilities if you find out later the kid is not yours because it would "be damaging to the child".

80% of all alimony payments go to women.

Now I don't know about 10x but there have been many female family law attorneys that have given lectures about how they were staunch feminists before getting g into family law and after being in family law and seeing how the divorce and custody system is rigged against men, they are now staunch male advocates.

Maybe back in the 70's women got screwed in divorce. I wasn't around back then.

I can tell you that statistically and listening to many people in family law, the system is now 100% rigged against men.

Men should not get married unless they are 100% sure their woman is as dedicated to the marriage as they are.

No prosecutor would have brought a case against her.

The gangs all here! Now it's a classic TexAgs misogyny thread. Who could have guessed.

Women… can't live with them, can't live without them.

My ex asked for the dog and cat, she then gave them away in less than a month after our split.

She got another dog about a year later…

Facts are not misogynistic.

Facts are facts.

I am sorry if that paints our family courts and women in a poor light. But being upset about the facts doesn't change them or make them any less true.

Just curious - if those statistics are true, how is that misogyny and not a just a general legitimate argument?

Reading through some of y'alls stories, I'm reminded of Chris Rock.

"Now I'm not saying he should have killed her... but I understand."

Neighbor down the street was five or six years older than me. Got married at 20. They had me be an usher at the wedding.

The bride was gorgeous and seemed nice that day. Only time I met her.

Sometime during the first year of marriage she left him while he was at work. Took everything. He was left with his truck and whatever he had in it that day and what he wore to work.

She took his clothes. His toothbrush. Everything. Their dwelling was a blank slate when he got home.

Craziness.

But how did the story end? He gets stuff back or no

Don't know. But yeah, toothbrush. Underwear. Socks. Shoes.

She wanted him to start from nothing.

One of his sisters more or less had to be restrained from hunting her down. She would have (and physically could have) put a beating on the ex-wife that would have made the news.

What a terrible person. How could you have been such a poor judge of character?? I imagine she didn't SEEM like a terrible woman with NO morals or conscience.

Perpetrated far worse? Like what? We're not discussing women's sufferage, here. We're talking about present day and women keeping kids from seeing their dad.

I would venture that in custody disputes the margin is 10 to 1. Go to any county court in Texas and see how many cases go the way of the mom and not the dad.

Unless mom shows up to court strung out with a needle hanging in her arm, the dad is absolutely getting ****ed over. Those are the facts.

I'm female. I watched my husband's two best friends get divorced by terrible women. They took the children. Both has another guy lined up before the filed for divorce.

Both men lost custody of their kids. They were good fathers who loved their kids.

I have known women to file for divorce for the dumbest reasons. They weren't "happy". These were "Christian" women who had husbands who weren't cheating, were not abusive, etc. They were boring. One woman uttered the phrase that "God wouldn't want me to be unhappy." She had children. She was willing to take them away from their father.

Life is what you make of it. Marriage is USUALLY what you put into it. I have seen surveys that five years after a divorce most people would not have gotten the divorce if they had it to do over again.

Women need to put down the romance novels and men need to turn off the porn. Both lead to unrealistic expectations.

the trope that men no longer get laid after getting married is particularly telling and sad. stereotypes exist for a reason. i cant begin to imagine how awful a sexually dead marriage would be.
