+529 Men get screwed over so badly in the divorce system. Let's see; my marrige just fell apart, I lost my house and half or more of my stuff, I have to pay thousands a month in child support, and I only get to see my kids for one day every other week. There's nothing fair about that , amirite?

1) it happens to women also, 2) there's usually a reason to get divorced, and 3) not all divorces are the same.

@ point 1 Women usually spend more time with the child because men who stay home more often than working (unless they have a home office or something) are looked down upon. Therefore, the women usually get the child since they are closer to the child leaving the man responsible for child support if a divorce happens.

im just saying that this post is very broad and that it's not alway the man getting the short end of the stick in the divorce.

yea.. thats not all divorces... I think if it was the woman who was the problem in the relationship, then yea, it's unfair to the man, but if it's the man's fault then it seems right..? this is hard to explain, but i hope you get where i'm getting at. but theres also divorces where the mom has the kid from monday-wednesday & the dad thursday-friday & every other weekend

Maybe if guys could keep their cocks in their pants or their wives while they're married, they wouldn't end up taking one in the ass in the courtroom during the divorce. Just sayin.

My parents got divorced. My dad got me and my brother, the house, and almost everything. My mom went to live with her parents til she found a place and I only get to see her every other weekend. So what's that you say about fair?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Hey, look on the bright side; you only have to see your kids once every two weeks. That sucks if you actually like your little brat, but for the rest of us it's great.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Does it matter at all whose fault it is? I mean, either way, they are getting divorced. It sucks for everyone. You win some stuff, you lose some stuff. There is no upside of a divorce. Unless one of the people actually wanted one.

Well, let's see... you marry a woman, more often than not she puts her career on a back burner for yours(old-fashioned, but still more common than not), she does terrible damage to her body bearing your kids, cleans up after your nasty ass(yes, nearly all guys are pretty nasty)... and then you cheat on her and/or leave her with barely any marketable skills, and stretch marks? No, it's completely fair, if that's the case... courts are more fair than you let on, and if a woman does the relationship-ruining, you can be sure she'll pay. If she's not a fit mother, she won't get the kids usually. But if it's just a case of some guy who can't, as Gregori said, keep his cock where it belongs, I say fuck his life up to the max. Everyone should be held accountable for their actions to the highest degree.

so everybody gets divorced because of cheating? damn where the fuck have you been living?

This is so true. My aunt and uncle just got divorced, and even though my aunt's batshit insane, cheated on my uncle all through their marriage, and has a boyfriend with a felony conviction for beating up one of his exes, she still gets the kids. It's ridiculous.

not ever divorce is the same. it's not always the man's fault nor is always the woman's fault. so this post could be true to some but completely wrong to others.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

It depends on the circumstances of the divorce. My dad cheated on my mom and he doesn't deserve to get off easy. Plus usually the kids stay with the mom and it's really hard for a single mom to get by because she is usually staying home with the kids in the first place and she needs money.

I'm #458875 and I'm far from an idiot, though a bitch I may be. Only a total pig of a guy, or a girl with NO idea what the real world is like, would disagree with what I said. I suspect both of you are still kids and ignorance is the problem.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Yeah, I kinda have to agree with the bitch, and not just because she agreed with me... you people seriously don't think a guy should have to pay for ruining a woman's life? Because that's exactly what we're talking about... yes, they usually get the kids for the biggest amount of time. That means she has to do what is totally a two-person job alone... leaving her barely any time to have a life of her own or find someone new... if she even can, with having someone elses kids already. I disagree that child support should be JUST about the kid's expenses... if one person decides their own selfishness is more important than his family and leaves them behind, he deserves to have to compensate that mother for the hell she's going to have endure because of him. He deserves to suffer at least some, for the suffering he is causing. So stfu, kiddies; your ignorance is DEFINITELY showing.

States have different divorce procedures. You can't have everyone rate something if there are different rules for everyone.

Why does everyone assume it'd be the man who cheated? I know of several cases where it was the opposite.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I agree, Infidelity is a serious problem and is gender blind.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Assuming it's the man who cheated is just making a point about the post. If you notice, most of the outspoken people on this thread did, at least, say that if it's a woman's fault- she deserves the same thing. If someone had said divorce isn't fair to women, I'm sure the posts would focus more on them.

My dad got the house and pays less than a thousand dollars of child support when he remembers to pay it, and he complains when he has to look after my sister and I. He definitely did not get the short end of the stick. Divorce is a hard thing to generalize about.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Sometimes, if the kid decides it, men stay with the children. And sometimes they just get divided custody. My parents are divorced so I know about that...and the money they have to pay on Child Support depends on what does the man (or the woman if she has to pay the Child Support) works in. For example if the person who is paying works on Burger King as a cashier, he will obviously not have to pay thousands...

Deal with it. You did this to her anyway.

That's what happened to my dad, my mom took practically everything and he pays her child support though she now has a wealthy husband. I see my dad bout twice a month

"and I only get to see my kids for one day every other week".. I wish I could see my dad that often :S When my parents got divorced, my mum, my brother and I had to 3500 miles across the Atlantic to England. So my mum had to start an entirely new life and my dad gets to see his kids twice a year... its not always just the man who gets a crappy deal in divorce. xx

In Australia, your marriage vows mean absolutely nothing. Im currently getting fucked over by our legal system because my lying cheating slut of an exwife is trying to clean me out. She came into the relationship with nothing and wants to leave with 70% of everything. We owe my mother $170 000 but she claims that that debt is mine and mine alone. It's up to the courts to decide but I can only imagine I will get fucked over like every other guy I talk too.

@Getting an unfair judgement is just that, judgement of man. The joke of court system generlizes ALL the situations, gives the mother the upper hand and the crooks who profit in the deal are the ones making the problem worse.YOu can have a totally professional woman making loads of money per month and !not a single need for child support!...with a positivly active Father in their childs life and still be FORCED to pay because of the messed up Laws.We are slaves to a system & held down by power,don't believe me?Get the motivation to confront it, you will jump though hoops like a trained dog.There is No solution Man alone can find, all we can do is pray and seek Gods will be done, we are up against the same evil that has always been present on this Earth,only in different a form,and he will flee before our sovereign God! Ask with all your submitted Heart and you will receive his wisdom.In the end Gods judgement is the only one that will matter, trust in His word.
