The big problem is that this area has become SO politicized that it's hard to get any strong data. My gut, reading between the various studies, is that custody, alimony, etc, are better than they were for guys 20-30 years ago, but not "fair" yet. It's one of the few areas in American society where the scales are tilted towards women instead of men, though, and one of the biggest pain points at the same time, so of course it gets picked up as a cause celebre by the men's rights groups; easier to complain about that than address the systemic inequalities that lead to/have lead to the issue.Fair criticism, and before I posted it I did go looking to see if there was any more recent data that might point in different directions, but didn't come up with anything. I'll agree it's not the strongest data on could hope for, and I should've noted that when posting. If anybody has better quality data, post away, but absent more recent sources, it's still significantly more evidence than the thread-resurrector offered in support of their version of things.
