Well, I had reason to look into Joti a couple of months ago, because I saw a photo of him being KISSED by a GIRL who I care a lot about. And, well, it's always a good idea to know a bit about your competition... :agree:
Little did I realise that he wasn't competition at all!

Sorry to disappoint, but bisexuals exist too, so maybe he was...
I think the idea might have had some merit if this were indeed the argument, but it’s not necessarily so. At any rate, not even having any children doesn’t stop people from claiming ex-spousal support, as in this case. I’ve heard that sometimes the argument is that the lesser-earning spouse has gotten used to a particular lifestyle, and so the other spouse owes him/her money to maintain such a lifestyle after the divorce – which doesn’t really make sense to me. But in any case, I think it’s one thing when a man (in any marriage) stays home to look after the children (whether biological or adopted) and thus indeed needs support before going out into the workforce, as you write, and a whole other story if he’s simply unemployed or makes less money than his ex-spouse, as in this case. So theoretically, it’s not about gender, but about what people do in a given marriage, but as you say, just because theoretically men could give up their careers to raise children doesn’t mean that they actually do (at least in any significant numbers), and I was thinking about real life.
IMO who you are or whom you know doesn't justify applying erronous labels to other people's statements.
Drat! My attempt to be funny backfired!
