Woggle Posted December 3, 2010 Posted December 3, 2010 Also one of the ironic things is that the men who did fully back and support the feminist often got treated the worst. The Alan Alda types in many cases ended up with women that treated them like garbage and unloaded all their rage at men towards. I saw my father who was an Alan Alda type go through this.
Author Untouchable_Fire Posted December 4, 2010 Author Posted December 4, 2010 There are father's rights groups and many feminists fight them every inch of the way. To be fair there are many women who fully support fathers rights who are of course called traitors by radical feminists. Granting fathers rights is impossibly hard for 2 reasons. The current system was designed BY law groups so that they could make massive amounts of money from divorce litigation. Combine that with the fact that urveys of the 50 US State Legislatures indicate that 15 to 20% of State Legislators are lawyers, many members of same national and local Bar Associations as divorce attorneys. So... in order to affect any change we either need a massive movement or violent revolution. Neither are currently feasible. "Alimony In the United States, the percentage of alimony recipients who were male rose from 2.4% in (1996–2001) to 3.6% in (2002–2006) and is expected to increase as more marriages feature a female primary earner. In 2005, wives earned more than their husbands in 25.5% of dual-income families, and 33% of all families where the woman worked. Members of the fathers' rights movement state that the outcome of divorce is overly one-sided, divorce is initiated by mothers in more than two-thirds of cases – especially when children are involved, and that divorce provides advantages for women, such as automatic custody of the children and financial benefits in the form of child support payments." Thus we see that in 33% of households as of 2005 women are the top earners in the family. Yet only 3.6% of men are provided alimony upon divorce. I don't know what percentage of women receive alimony, but I know about 80% request it. "Education In recent years, girls in the United States have performed much better than boys in the same age group, in most schools and colleges. In the United States, 57% of college students are women, and the number is growing. A significant majority of primary school teachers in the United Kingdom are female. Medical schools in the UK currently admit two females for each male. The trend is similar in other industrialized countries. Male rights authors (like the ones in Significant writers) argue that no meaningful action has yet been taken to address this in the U.S., but that the U.K. has both recognized and addressed it since the early 1990s." Another fact that homes without fathers are FAILING to raise boys. I mean this is serious stuff and I'm not the only one who sees it happening. This affects all of us and our future generations.
