"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

This is crazy! Anderson Cooper has a show on tomorrow about women who are paying men alimony.

I'm not defending the idea, but isn't women paying men alimony the opposite of a double-standard?
That is my point. Men have been getting hit with this kind of thing for years, but the moment it happens to a woman it is a travesty. Why is it news now but not before?

Like you said, it was bound to happen.
It's still a little surprising to see some fair-minded judges out there though.
