A common incel argument I've seen pop up lately is how men are "scammed out of their money" in divorce.

Misogyny never changes, does it? "WoMans ToOk mUh MonEys" has to be the oldest one in the book.

Genius patriarchal society planning there, make it more difficult for women to support themselves by not allowing them into the workforce or even vote for thousands of years and then cry about it when woman might actually need that money that you probably owe her anyway for all that fucking thankless labour she does around the house.

And let's be real, chances are in 2022 she works a job for her own money anyway so that's her assets and money as well that you're splitting.

How dare women want their own money that they're entitled to! The gall!

Please, men of Hexbear. Restore my faith in the dude gender because this shit gets me down in the dumps :yea:

    I know I might be doing a "nOt aLl mEn" here, but in my experience (source: have been a dude for 43 years now) most dudes do not give a shit about stuff like this, unless they are massively online weirdos.

    We just want to get together with someone we can vibe with.

    Marriage and divorce as a legal concept is weird, especially in the states. I think my favorite guy is the guy who works abunch of OT, complains about it, and then reveals he has like, three divorces he's paying for. And then on top of that they are normally very conservative and an asshole to women, so it's hard to feel bad for the guy. He feels compelled to pursue the same doomed relationship strategy again and again.

    It's basically the only way to truely fuck yourself financially as an able-bodied white boomer, aside from like, a crippling drug addiction.

    I hate misogynists so much it's unreal. After we win:

    • any whining about getting divorced gets the wall :stalin-gun-1: :stalin-gun-2:
    • Any incel shit :stalin-gun-1: :stalin-gun-2:
    • Any probirthers :stalin-gun-1: :stalin-gun-2:

      I'm not justifying dudes being shitty. But I get dumped 7 years ago and it fucked me up.

    Me and my gf put all our money together the day we moved in together. That was about 15 years ago and while we have separate accounts/no joint account, we don’t really have “his” and “her” money: when someone is “the one” paying for something it just means they get it done, not that we’re keeping a tally or even that it comes from a certain account.

    Couples who kept a ledger, divvied up who pays for what and “settle scores” have always been completely alien to us. Maybe we were just too young and stoned to do things any other way, but it’s how we still are lol

      At the moment relatives are trying to get me to manage my and my partners money like a damn business ledger, tracking half and half, and we are far too young and stoned to do that. Fuck off, let people just exist, goddamn do I hate capitalism

        Yeah, I mean obviously you gotta be a little discerning. But if you know the person well and trust them, i think it makes complete sense

    I thought this might have been inspired by the latest ALAB ep, where they talk to the single dad who sued them for defamation over their podcast
