However, I refuse to broadbrush either with the same brush, because as was said earlier - it happens both ways.

It happens a hell of alot more one way than it does the other. Women, standing the most to gain, initiate divorces at a rate far higher than men and they are granted custody in the overwhelming majority of cases. Hell, in California, boys statutorily raped by women are forced to pay child support. Show me an example of a teenage girl paying child support to an adult male rapist.

An article posted on FR the other day said this was due to men having a higher probabilty of behaving badly - more drunkeness, drug abuse, physical abuse, cheating, etc ..

I have said nothing at all different.

I had the most to lose when I initiated divorce proceedings against my ex-husband, with no children of my own involved - yet I was going to be expected to pay my share of child support for his child from a previous marriage because the formula that calculated the amount he paid included my income.

Nothing California does surprises me any longer, so trying to equate the female rape victim paying the support to the assinine idea a male rape victim should do so is as ludicrous as the statute itself.
