  8. Lori Hopkins: Good. And with the risk of attracting nasty comments myself: I don't really oppose women working and supporting themselves. In a way I can concede to some of the feminism that a woman will end up in a tough place if she dedicates her life to act as a housekeeper for a man, and then finds herself getting divorced. Those years spent away from the job market will seriously hurt her chances at getting a good career because practically all employers are wary of people with large time gaps in their resumés. Not to mention their reduced pensions. If I was a woman, and I met a man who wanted to be the "breadwinner" and have me at home to take care of the house, then I would probably demand a financial agreement that he takes part of his salary which will go straight into a bank account under my sole control to cover for my pension and loss of income acting as his housekeeper. It's not very romantic, but regretfully kind of necessary, because no matter how good and stable a relationship might seem right now, there are no guarantees whatsoever that the relationship will continue forever. And if I then sacrifice my entire career for his sake, I would be left with nothing if the relationship ends. This would actually be a much more preferable way to solve the issue rather than resorting to the american legal custom of alimony, which is frankly abused by divorced women to quite a large extent. Voluntary agreements between spouses has to be superior to enforced legal interventions (where lawyers run off with most of the money anyway). If my potential husband wouldn't accept those terms, then I would continue to pursue a career of my own and we would have to share the household chores equally.
