In the majority of cases, its the guy that gets screwed over, hence the Barbie joke -
Have you seen the new divorced Barbie? She comes with everything Ken had.  |
I disagree with you here (bolded section). Check this out:

Also, I was having a discussion with my husband the other day about how parents are more protective of their daughters than their sons, and he pointed out that women have more to lose. If a woman becomes a single parent, it is much less likely that she'll get married than a man who is a single parent. There are a lot of reasons for this, which I won't go into at the moment, but once I thought about it, a couple of my friend who are young and attractive and not hurting in the man department, both married guys with kids. So I think this is true. Men not only have more $$$ after a divorce, but they are also more likely to get married again, I believe.
