Well men, it sounds like it's time we got off our butts and joined the Masculist movement.
Time to take it back.

Because women don't get equal pay to men. Still don't. Women still only get 70cents to the dollar for men. Black women even less.
Women tend to put their careers on hold for children. Younger couples tend to put their husbands careers first. You are far more likely to see a couples careers evolve around the men then the women's.
Women tend to put their careers more at risk since they are they take care of the children. It is more likely the woman will use her sick leave, vacation leave, and what have you for childcare then the man.
Women lose a whole heck of a lot if they want to stay home and put their careers on hold for a quite a few years to raise children. A lot of employers don't want to hire someone who has been out of the circuit for a couple of years. So it is to make up for the differences.
That being said, I don't think alimony should go one for more then three or four years. Enough to get training and a job. Unless you are way older, where getting work or another mate is much harder.

I can truly see both ends of this argument....But for the OP you should understand one thing:
The women on this site are EXTREMELY intelligent. They're not your typical wide-eyed idiot. I would tread carefully and more respectfully lest you be electronically castrated.

Relax kid I made no threats. Only a warning to your female hating rants.
They come with consequences.
Edit to add:
There is no war, and I'm not betraying anyone. I'm sorry you feel this way but I don't know you and I don't want to. I have sworn no allegiance to the male side of the Human race, nor have I sworn allegiance to the female. I am who I am and my allegiance is to the men and women I love that's it.
Edit 2:
A premise of your post is that women have somehow taken something from men. I have never had a woman take anything from me that I cared about. I am uniquely qualified in many fields and there aren't many MEN or Women that can compete. I feel quite secure.
Get a girl friend kid.

My WIFE would be extremely offended if I got a girlfriend, but I like the way ya think.
as for you:
Edit to add:
"There is no war, and I'm not betraying anyone. I'm sorry you feel this way but I don't know you and I don't want to. I have sworn no allegiance to the male side of the Human race, nor have I sworn allegiance to the female. I am who I am and my allegiance is to the men and women I love that's it."
I'm quite sure that you don't know all of these intelligent women you just defended on here either. You just came to the aid of just another seductive illusion. You most likely were saving "Miss July" from Penthouse in your mind weren't you?
Edit 2:
"A premise of your post is that women have somehow taken something from men. I have never had a woman take anything from me that I cared about. I am uniquely qualified in many fields and there aren't many MEN or Women that can compete. I feel quite secure."
(Exactly my point) I have sworn no allegiance to the male side of the Human race = traitor to men. Any real man would want his species to thrive, not suffer or give it away to a fairer sex.
HA HA, stick around a little longer, that's all I have to say about that. I'm guessing you're still a teenager because NO MAN goes through life without being taken by a woman unless he lives deep in the woods with a bear or something, lol. When she finally comes, get ready, this is gonna hurt man. Your self respect, your pride and your wallet. You see, it's guys like you who they prey and even hunt for. The clueless who take their side in the face of indignant truth and as a man no doubt. You're like chocolate to a woman, they'll get you yet ha ha.

A man's self respect and power comes from himself, not from what women and other men do. You are seriously misguided. And if you don't want to have to "suffer this stupidity" the stop filling ATS with women hating garbage like this thread.

Indeed, but we're dealing in blanket statements here and it is unfair and ridiculous. I care only to understand the women in my life that make a difference to me. Everything else is a case by case basis. To say that females are uniformly negative is not only wrong it's idiotic, and to somehow attach a conspiracy to it to boot...Not saying there aren't women out there who are working toward dominance of women in the world, mind you. I'm just saying that such aversion to women and down right hatred is unhealthy and doesn't solve problems we all have in common, and those problems are the worst ones.
