ABSTRACT

Fifty years of feminism in Western culture has set men up to fail in our family court systems.

Feminism has been, since its inception, a political device for dividing men and women. Family courts have

become gynocentric tools for divorcing spouses to abuse men. Mainstream commentators increasingly

understand that the family court systems in Western countries are now normalized, and weaponized,

government tools for carrying out a war on men. Because of their poor treatment in family court, men often

experi

ence repeated social defeat and its devastating consequences.
