Feminists also just wanted equal treatment. But modern feminism is all about elevating women at the price of men. Today anyone claiming to be a feminist but who only wants equality will be turned on and eviscerated by 'true' feminists.

This is a characteristic of victimhood. It always starts off with morality and fairness as the driving consideration. However once their demands start to be met they (the demands) will escalate, increasingly and without end. Feeding into victimhood fuels their hunger and it will never be sated.

DO NOT GIVE THEM ONE INCH.

Horse shit, they wanted the rights but not the responsibilities...

Ah no, that's the clear horse shit. Many feminists wanted to work and have jobs. That was the biggest part of second wave feminism. Which wasn't a bad idea in and of itself but it was massively short sighted and showed no thought had been given to the most obvious economic outcomes. Which has resulted in most families needing to do at least double the amount of work outside the home for a lower standard of living.

There are economic outcomes from women joining the work force, but the biggest reasons for a woman to want to work are pretty legit though. If a divorce happens and the woman has no job to support herself she's going to be fucked. This could leave them stuck in abusive relationships or unable to leave a cheating spouse for financial reasons. There's also a possibility that the man ends up being unreliable and can't hold down a job for whatever reason, and the woman and children end up with a lot of stress and financial problems and can't do anything about it even if she wants to stay with him. Then the fact that you would have to find a man to support you in the first place.

Sorry but nope, not buying it...No fault divorce with alimony/spousal support unchanged is just pure having their cake and eating it. The only time you generally hear anything about reforming that from feminists is when a woman gets hit with it.

Just look at the blow out over Florida killing lifetime support going forward recently.

But in my opinion if you get a divorce because the spark is gone or your just not feeling it anymore why in the ever living fuck should your ex partner have to support your arse going forward?

Of course no one should have to support an ex that walks away for no good reason. My point was just that women working can prevent them from being trapped in a bad situation. Men should have protections also to not end up ruined if they need to leave because of a bad situation where the wife is the issue, or have to pay to support an ex that leaves for no good reason.
