    Why are women doing this? They have a baby with him and they are able to get child support and spousal support for 18 years and maybe for life. This is a nice deal for a few nights of sex with this idiot.

        Not “women” in general. But there will always be willing idiots somewhere.

        There are women who intentionally choose to be a single parent. Like they’re single, they get a sperm donor, have a kid. It’s not some insane thing. Kids should have a supportive and caring environment, whomever raises them. Not every kid with a single caregiver is neglected, nor is every kid with 2 or more caregivers properly cared for.

          Economics do be like that and we are all subject to needing money.

          I was getting more at society loves to shit on men for walking out on kids but women don’t get grief for setting up a family without a father…

        Some do, most don’t. A lot fall for powerful men with lots of money, and my guess is that Musk throws out advances on as many women as he is able and playing the odds with and advantage means he will find a lot of the women who desire what he has to offer from money to attention to the experience.

        I would bet that out of the dozen at least one did it for the money, at least one was an accident they decided to keep, and at least one did it because they thought he night marry them.

        Nothing is universally true for all women exceot for the fact that they are women.

        Humans run the complete gamut from the good to bad, smart to stupid.

        There will ALWAYS be some people ( this includes women) willing to do anything for a chance at money or even to just rub elbows with the rich, powerful, famous

        Ever heard of groupies? Wilt Chamberlain supposedly slept with 10k women and has how many kids.

        But to answer your question absolutely.

      You don’t get spousal support because someone was a sperms donor to you or had a short term affair with you. That’s not how spousal support works.
