I saw a post on TwoX today about 50/50 being detrimental to women and I was happy to see the vast majority of commenters agreed. Here were the main points:
I've always thought 50/50 is ridiculous. For a start, women are expected to pay $$$ on makeup, clothes, hair, nails. Also biology isn't 50/50. If he can carry 50% of the baby, I'll foot 50% of the bills :) And my Nigel said 'women have to deal with so much crap from men that it's only fair that men pay all the bills' lmao
Men treat women as status symbols. I don't think that's a good thing but it's the way it is. That's why they usually divorce their 'starter wife' after making a lot of money. Do you really wanna spend your prime years building up some dude just so he can leave you for some 20 year old? Be a gold digger. Men deserve it :)
