Quote " Someone who has been through it and has read expert's books on the topic is much better prepared to make a judgement on "if it's abuse" than someone who has merely "seen" cases related to the topic of abuse. "
Ummmm NO, not true at all. In fact, someone who has been through abuse is exactly the type of person society DOESN'T WANT JUDGING ABUSE BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT OBJECTIVE.
Amazing what females fail to understand about bias...It sure does explain why they favor alimony. Same reason Plantation owners favored slavery, them blacks just can't fend for themselves anyway...

You do have a point. I guess the OP could ask for only NCP's that lost custody in court decided cases, and ask them to be participants in a study about family court fairness, and use those results to represent all people.

Its not all about women. Men also suffer abuse and recieve allimony. Does this make a difference? What does being black have anything to do with anything?

I think we all need to be a judge of our own situation - we know what makes us feel bad - if you are feeling bad, then whether it is classified as 'abuse' or not - perhaps you are not in the right situation for you and you are not on the path to happiness.

Connie60, Where are the men who receive alimony ? Oh, wait, you mean for every 100 women who receive alimony there is ONE MAN ? Is that the guy you are talking about ?
Being a black slave in pre-1865 US is similar to a married man. A married man gives up all his rights to the woman, that is the marriage contract. The woman can screw anyone else, and leave the relationship, and he has to pay her...she can take his children away at any time, and he still has to pay her, she can lie about abuse at any time and he has to move out she doesn't need any proof of abuse at all...and she will never be prosecuted for telling a lie. She can stop working at any time, and he has to pay her way.
If you are the woman, what's not to like about this plantation ?

Dude, you are the man! I noticed you post on my wifes spousal support/alimony rant and was a little impressed. After reading some of your other posts and now this thread, I am convinced you are a truth-teller at all cost. I suppose if youre gonna hit the bulls eye, it might as well be here, in a community forum, where people are asking for input or advice. Keep up the bare knuckled, "just the facts, maam..." approach. My wife really appreciated hearing "Why dont you get some guy to marry you. Im sure youre still hot. You did it once before. You can do it again...". You and Goodman were the only two that sensed and/or called her on her one-sided story. Bravo! LONG LIVE THE TRUTH TELLERS !!!!
