After michael's last post, I suddenly understand an argument in favor of no-fault divorce that I never did before. Posts: 32919 | Registered: Mar 2003

Why is that? Because there is an assumption that wives and husbands share equal responsibility in a relationship?

No. It's because it ensures that no judge need twist and turn things to blame either party. No fault means the judge doesn't have to decide if an affair is the fault of the cheater (um, duh!) or the cheatee. Posts: 32919 | Registered: Mar 2003

I live in a state which has no-fault as the court rules. A freind of mine had a wife who was basically a public playground and when the marriage ended her actions could not be used in consideration as to who got the kids. Such rules remind of the parody of the "Divorce Barbie" -- she comes with all of Ken's stuff.

Yeah, no kidding. A man having an affair is doing what he has to because his wife sucks, but a woman having an affair is an unfit mother who gets all the stuff who victimizes the guy. How misogynistic.

Got a chance to watch the show last night. It has zero sexual content. It was all about what happens when a rich person lives with a lower middle class family and vice versa. I understand there is another segment where they have a black wife living with a white family and a white wife living with a black family.
I think all the excitement over the possible morals warping nature of this show was way overblown. There was certainly nothing in it that warranted a boycott.

From the promos I've seen (of the Fox show), it looks pretty disgusting. It's one thing for adults to disrupt their lives and humiliate themselves on national t.v., but it's quite another thing when children are involved. I think that's reprehensible.
