Honestly, I resent the implication here. I wasn't attempting to make a blanket declaration.

No you were trying to establish plausible deniability for a hypothetical best case scenario for the woman. I resent your stating the obvious, because if those were the particulars that men complained about....I wouldn't listen to them either.

Your # 345 when asked for practicle examples of what they did wrong they are silent or come up with a backhanded as opposed to explicit accusation against the man.

I am going to go out on a limb here and assume (yes, I know the old saying) that you are speaking from the voice of experience and this is why you are unwilling to accept the reason for my posting this train of reasoning in the first place. Sorry that you feel that a woman who attempts (in YOUR eyes) to "explain" something, is only being underhanded or conniving. Sometimes this is simply not the case. You might want to take an in-depth study into the differences in the ways the sexes communicate. You just might learn something.

You're probably correct about this. After having several male friends who have gone through divorces, I can tell you pretty quickly that (even to their female friends) they bitch and whine about either how much weight their wife has gained or how little sex they're getting without EVER stopping to think about the underlying reasons for either! Also, the guys never stop to realize that they have a few problems themselves (balding, pot-belly/love handles getting larger, lack of foreplay/romance, lack of attention outside household functions, etc., etc.).

Thing is - you started this entire diatribe because you didn't pay attention to the post that I was replying to in the first place which was faulting all women because they were the ones who mostly initiated actual divorce court proceeding without making ANY exceptions for circumstances. I have NO interent in (let's see...how did you put it?) "establishing plausible deniability for a hypothetical best case scenario for the woman" as you seem to think. When the women are wrong, I take up for the men and vice versa. When someone decides to make a blanket observation, I tend to want to clarify that this across-the-board condemation may not be the right conclusion.
