A man should lead in presenting the idea of declining gov breakup rules in support of his own proposal.
Ideally, a woman has no special incentive to leave the marriage, but has an incentive (like equity) the longer she stays. This arrangement would incentivize the man to provide value that would increase the woman's security over time. If the man gave up or was a deadbeat, he would incentivize the woman to leave.
Another potential primitive would be a delay on vesting, such that a woman did not accrue equity until the start of year 11.
This would eliminate those marrying exclusively for wealth, as the cost of gold digging would require faking for decades.
Ultimately economics rule our, and every other organism’s behavior. If we’re curious, we, unlike other animals can see the roots of our motivations and subsequent actions. Most people of course, routinely act like dumb animals…..
Yup. No reason to attribute to malice what can be attributed to incentives.
