re: Getting financially screwed in divorce

OK, but now that union is being broken. Should she continue to have access to those items?

I think the divorce laws are remnants of a time when marriage meant something more than it does now. However, I would prefer not to throw the baby out with the bath water, meaning I personally wouldn’t vote to change the laws in a way that made women more vulnerable to financial hardships post divorce. What I’m thinking of is the multiple situations I know of where women ended up struggling the rest of their lives while the husband moved on and had a fine life even if he took a financial hit from the divorce. These modern situations where the woman earns as much as the man are still not the norm and either way, I think men are naturally protected in that we can easily remain attractive into older age.
This OP, where the woman has a good job and filed for divorce, well, she can get bent. Unless OP is lying about the situation.
