John Cleese on his divorce

Story here. Excerpt:

"The 68-year-old comedian asked the audience at Bristol Zoo: 'Guess how much I'm paying her at the moment?

'I'm paying her £900,000 a year. And we had no children. It really is astonishing.'

Cleese faces claims for half his earnings, half of his nine properties and £900,000 a year from 63-year-old American psychotherapist Alyce Faye Eichelberger.
...
Cleese blamed his wife's lawyer for turning their separation into an embittered dispute over money, saying his wife is now 'taking me for everything she can get'."

Men who marry nowadays must face the consequences of their foolish actions. Feminists must die in loneliness.

Single men are free men.

Single women are poor lonely unsatisfied beings.

Single men is the only social group benefited from feminism.

Western men are going to have to learn that when they marry they are entering into a LEGALLY BINDING BONDAGE contract where they are the very junior party. As a matter of fact in my opinion the legal standing of the typical Western husband/father is that of a 17th century Russian serf with the civil rights of said same.

This same damned tiresome scenario keeps repeating itself again and again. From Sir Paul McCartney to this Cleese character. Of course the modern serf class who are Western married/fathers men are the only oppressed class in history that has the vote, political clout and some economic leverage to break their bondage but for some crap reason just simply can't bring themselves to do it! Archeologist a couple of hundred years from now will probably wonder just how this empowered serf class remained in bondage when they held the keys to their freedom.

Cleese has been on this planet for 68 years, and he is supposedly an intelligant and well-educated man. Yet he still pronounces himself "astonished" at the fact that he has been placed in financial slavery to a woman who no longer has anything to do with him - except of course to squander his money.

Welcome to the reality that you stupidly ignored all your life, John. And now your life is going to end in the same misery and sense of injustice as millions of other fools like you, who also ignored the signs all around them, believing that it couldn't happen to them, or that their ex was simply not that kind of person. They were all wrong, too.

So join the Men's Movement and do something about it.

Civilisation: man's greatest, and most unappreciated, gift to women

they can't see past the end of their peckers.

the older guys have heard this stuff about losing EVERYTHING,
most have seen their friends being devastated;
but, until it happens to them personally, it's just not a reality.
we just need to keep telling them the truth. no one told me.

i get mad at parents who let their male children marry knowing it is
a stacked deck. w/o even mentioning the facts about divorce, child custody,
CS w/o any guarantee of ever seeing their children again, permanent alimony,
imprisonment for not being able to pay, the pathetic money grubbing local and
state agencies adding outrageous fees, interest and penalties,
federal matching funds, and the list of one-sided laws goes on and on.

you are to love and protect your children. not set them
up for destruction. it's not your grandpa's marriage anymore folks. wake up.

do these "mothers" love feminist privilege for themselves so much they are willing
to sacrifice their male children to be someone else's servant? do these so-called
fathers hate having to stand up and be a Man by explaining these very real potential pitfalls to their sons? these parents have heard about these things.
and they have seen it happen to others' sons, if they live in the real world that is.

guess so. this stuff happens everyday, in every city. can't say anymore that it is just "bitter" men complaining.
getting taken to the cleaners by "loving wives" is regularly out there for all
to see, even if those who profit from it are trying like heck to keep it quiet.
