Feminists have ruined marriage. Women have rights, men have responsibilities. Discuss

Actually, before second-wave feminism spousal maintenance/alimony legally could only be paid by a man to his ex-wife - the reverse was not legally possible. Nowadays, however, it is indeed possible for a court to insist a woman pay her ex-husband maintenance. Yes, men still pay it more often, but that's because it's generally paid by the higher-earning partner, which more often than not is still men.

How on earth does any of this constitute 'power'?

See above about maintenance. Also, why is it his house?

You should use Google Scholar for evidence. What even is that site? Did you come across that on some feminists tumblr ramblings or something? Come on now. Proper sources please.

Because we often have to provide for ourselves, our partners and the children.

How about you try and use Scholar to back up your claim that males are by default mentally stronger?

What a hypocrite.

Both these diagrams give you concrete reasons as to why women are paid less than men.

Frankly I don't think this is going to change anyone's views simply because you're all as stubborn as each other ...

I agree with a previous user: You can't expect men and women to be paid the same in a capitalist society. If you want the same pay, you might as well join Communism.

And as I acknowledged earlier, the choice of degree and job choice also plays a role in wage difference. However, what these studies don't show is the pay gap differences within one career (which I would actually like to see, even if it disproves the existence of the pay gap) E.g. What are the average wages for male and female politicians? Are they the same? If not, who earns more on average?

Beautiful. I love evidence which totally destroys feminist talking points.

One simple reason- maturnity leave. Women are the ones who give birth, and thus they have to take time off work to look after their young. Yes, some males do take paternity leave, but often it is the women who get the longer leaves.

It's men obviously ... since we work more than women.

Oh, by complaining against this concrete evidence, you're only reinforcing the typical feminist stereotype.

In a marriage- men and women should do equal amounts of housework. Both genders should have a role in bringing up the kids. In cases of divorce, both parties should pay equally.

Yes but men can get like 2 weeks paternity leave tops. Maybe more men would be willing to or actually want to be able to take more time out when they have a child.
