    The abuse claims tend to be about custody, and custody is about money.

    "No-fault divorce for me, and not for thee".
    You dodging breeding is your escape card for everything.
    Probably why you really did it.

    But if someone is already willing to lie at one stage of the proceedings, wouldn't they be just as happy to lie throughout the entire thing?

    I get that people lie, I know a woman whose ex husband filed countless false abuse claims against her, but I don't see how getting rid of no-fault eliminates that. It probably just makes it even more costly for the person being lied about, since the court can make them pay the lawyers fees too.

    All that shows is how unreliable men are when it comes to sex and results of such interactions.

    Rather than get rid of no fault divorce, teach your sons to be responsible for where their sperm ends up.
    Best advice I’ve given both my sons regarding this is “if you don’t want to have kids, YOU make sure you don’t have kids.

    That would solve a lot of problems. Except, of course, that removes the ability of a lot of men’s reasons for bitching about women.

    OMG that was a fucking divorce lawyer advertisement.

    Tell me you are the guy who buys penis enhancement pills at truck stops without telling me you are that guy.

    you are the reason we know @Jenee is fucking retarded.

    I'm really not sure what you're looking for here. Unless we are ONLY permitted to discuss the no-fault aspect and nothing else related to divorce.

    :wtf:

    It shows hell of a lot of things, and that is not one of them.

    And that protects them from malicious lying women how?

    The REAL practical advice would be "Never get married if you don't want to get taken to the cleaners. Always use a condom and always destroy the contents. "

    P.S. The only reason women aren't accused of being "unreliable" about it is that they have that final alternative to opt out of a pregnancy.

    If the people complaining about no-fault divorce are actually complaining about divorce in general, they should be honest about that. Otherwise it seems like they're arguing against no-fault in bad faith.

    It's like those politicians and pundits that talk about imposing restrictions on trans kids for the sake of the kids while at the same time pushing bills targeting trans people of all ages. Just he honest about what the real target is, y'know? :shrug:

    Look, the GOP stirs up all this "what about crime? And what about fraud? And what about..what about...what about.." shit, but they don't give a fuck about any of that, because look at their divorces.
    It's all part of their dumb evil culture war shit that they don't even believe in.
    S'why I tune it out, it's all from hypocrites.
    Hard-won experience.

    My naïve 20-something self never would have imagined UA spouting all this blatantly GOP shit.
    He used to be all pot, and porn, and heavy metal, and now he's turned into a stick-up-his-ass lockstep conservative through and through.

    Lesson learned: don't fall for libertarians, they always turn into Republicans when it fucking counts.
    When the book burners come, they'll heel-turn on you like a wrestler.

    Two propositions there:
    1) No-fault makes it easy by requiring no justification, which is only a problem because..

    2) There is financial and custodial incentive, disproportionately towards women.

    Removing one negates the other.

    which reminds me, Tererune casts withering womb on @Jenee just in case. Yes, I would have tried to do something about Albert's swimmers, but my power to overcome male dumbass breeding is still first level. I would have better luck casting magic missile at the darkness.

    Look, liberalforge, don't go down the rabbit hole with his phony data.
    He's all about maximum liberty at all costs.
    We see this in the school shooting threads.
    Literal piles of corpses aren't enough for him to want to give up his "pew pew" toy.
    If divorce caused piles of dead kids, he shouldn't care.
    He's got some other bug up his ass about divorce.
    Gee, I wonder what it could be.

    But the financial and custodial inequities (that we'll agree for discussion's sake exist) have nothing to do with no-fault divorce, right?

    Or what is the connection that you are making?
