Yeah, that's because he laments and longs for the old days when women were more like property. His whole output is a mixture of fox and the grapes and blaming society/feminism for what's happened to him.
WTF's wife left him, and if you are to believe his side of the story he got a pretty raw deal. I take it with a grain of salt of course, mainly because it's only his side of the story and secondly because of his seemingly glossed over explanation of his own role in the matter verses his highly detailed account of his ex's actions when she left. Here's the entirety of his admission of what his faults were ...
"I’ve never been a high earner, nor have I ever been very ambitious about making money, although I’ve worked for the overwhelming majority of my adult life and can’t really imagine not working in some capacity or another. I’m sure my lack of financial motivation had something to do with the breakdown of my marriage (although, actually, it was probably psychologically more of a problem for me than my ex), but before being divorced, I wasn’t aware that it was a potential crime."
I try not to read too much into this, but it sounds to me like someone who's rationalizing a lazy work ethic and is excusing moving around from shitty job to shitty job when he is actually holding down a job, hence the "overwhelming majority" bit. The line about "probably psychologically more of a problem for me" reads more like someone rationalizing his inability to provide, the stress it caused his wife and family, and an attempt to diminish his own culpability. In the article he says nothing at all about her role or her burdens in the relationship. Making it not a story of who did what in it, but rather a story that begins by making minimizing excuses for what she might have to say about him then moving immediately into his version of what happened when she left. Admittedly this is my superficial barely informed take on the matter.
The bottom line is that reading his story for a second time, I have more than a few questions about his side of the story. But at the end of the day, no matter how bad he can make his ex out to be and how bad she actually was, he's blaming the whole world and the kitchen sink for his ex-wife being "the evil bitch" she was.
Here's his article at the Good Men Project, judge for yourself. How I Became a Deadbeat Dad
