@Mementos1234 @TruismsT @jesswana @PotipharJo @rascallycake @MisterMarilyn @jk_rowling It was taken down, unfortunately. However, there are two alternate sources. This will have my page number cites correct (academic.oup.com/qje/article-ab…) and This one will not (nber.org/papers/w19023), but it is free.
@Mementos1234 @TruismsT @jesswana @PotipharJo @rascallycake @MisterMarilyn @jk_rowling "[W]hen the wife earns more than the husband, the likelihood of divorce increases by about 6[%]… [and s]ince 12[%] of couples in the sample get divorced, this … implies that having the wife earn more than the husband increases the likelihood of divorce by 50[%]" (free, p. 25).
@Mementos1234 @TruismsT @jesswana @PotipharJo @rascallycake @MisterMarilyn @jk_rowling "[T]he data suggest that married women may sometimes stay out of the labor force so as to avoid a situation where they would become the primary breadwinner" (nber.org/papers/w19023.… or free, p. 596).

It appears that there was some slight editing between the versions.

@Mephitus_Skunk @TheRabbitHole84 The regressive solution seems to be the only solution.
@Mephitus_Skunk @TheRabbitHole84 The simple solution to the fertility crisis is to decrease female education which increases fertility as “[a] negative correlation is most clearly seen between different levels of female education and the total fertility rate … in a population” ().weforum.org/stories/2015/1…
@Mephitus_Skunk @TheRabbitHole84 Likewise, “[w]omen’s wage employment is negatively correlated with total fertility rates” ().

Decrease women’s employment outside of the agricultural sector and thereby increase the total fertility of a population.pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC82…

There is a faction in both parties that want to get rid of disability benefits for disabled citizens, disabled workers, and disabled veterans in order to teach young men the value of being responsible; women aren’t responsible.

Veterans are irresponsible moochers to these folks. Image

@KateRos78419369 @HoneyBadgerBite The Department of Labor gets similar numbers in their surveys.

In both surveys, when considering both paid work and unpaid domestic labor for the household, men (generally) work more hours than women consistently (whether or not there are children in the picture).
@KateRos78419369 @HoneyBadgerBite If you add up both the unpaid labor and paid labor, on average, men work more total time than women creating a #GenderedLaborGap pursuant to (as an example) the @BLS_gov's 2017 American Time Use Survey (bls.gov/news.release/a…) and @pewresearch's data (pewresearch.org/short-reads/20…).

@KateRos78419369 @HoneyBadgerBite @BLS_gov @pewresearch American Time Use Survey (with 2017 as an example) shows that women on average are not spending enough more time with their kids, doing chores, or anything else to explain women's lack of time working. On average, men just work more in America (considering both paid and unpaid). Image

@Stoicsense2 If you know the history, then you know why this keeps happening despite laws saying that equal or shared parenting is possible. Many of us were told lies.

What is the real purpose of child support?

Why are mothers given preferential custody orders?
@Stoicsense2 The law changed in what’s now the United Kingdom🇬🇧 (granting women custody of their kids after divorce) because of the whinging of an adulterous ex-wife () and the United States🇺🇸 soon followed with the Talfourd Act (named after the British🇬🇧 reformer).spartacus-educational.com/Wcustody39.htm
@Stoicsense2 The reason child support exists is not for the sake of the children.

Child support exists because women — unlike men — were viewed by society (including by women) to be incompetent in handling their finances and incapable of working enough to care for children by themselves.

@melJsaysso I think it is time for a history lesson.

@AaronHeikkila, @BigHeadMafia,
@vhjvh70477682, and @newboots1977, you all may find it interesting.

Mel Jones (@melJsaysso) has read this before.
@melJsaysso @AaronHeikkila @BigHeadMafia @vhjvh70477682 @newboots1977 tl;dr — the reason child support exists isn’t for the sake of the children.

@melJsaysso @AaronHeikkila @BigHeadMafia @vhjvh70477682 @newboots1977 The law in what’s now the United Kingdom🇬🇧 was changed (adopting the “tender-years doctrine”) because of the whinging of an adulterous ex-wife () and the United States📷 soon followed with the “Talfourd Act” (named after the British reformer).spartacus-educational.com/Wcustody39.htm
