Losing half your stuff in divorce is NOT an unfounded fear, and pretending it isn't is the epitome of reductive stupidity.His whole thing boils down to "If he divorced her, he'd lose half his shit". It's funny because the cheating led to divorce and his ex-wife despising him and using his actions to alienate his daughter.
I'm done here, it's pushing into "his wife is his property" territory. The man could do no wrong, it's his wife's fault, he had to go elsewhere for pussy.
Men are expected to be the breadwinner for a family. The MC was the one for his. Divorce court incentivizes women to ruin men in court. Are you HONESTLY going to tell me that shouldn't be a factor?
