Women lose more than men at the time of divorce

Separations are never free, for anyone. For a time, men and women have it bad: the duel, fired and joined several divisions need to redefine a new project and the obligation to take up arms to leave the world without the restraint of the "photo" family. In this context, some dispute temporary "? by who gets the worst part is inescapable. The theme is repeated again and again in discussions and negotiations which, inevitably, are installed in the post-divorce, fueling a debate that is social. Who loses more when the couple breaks?
A brand new British study opens the debate: according to its findings, the woman is "more injured than the male, especially economically.
Looks like a wrestling match to see who leads a painful ranking of victimization, but in a context of loss and is a separation, this discussion is part of the human reality of most people who choose to terminate a marriage. We must deliver all that was of both - to the children - and tensions are imposed. "Competing for establishing who the worst happens and who loses even more unproductive in terms of energy, but is a stage that no pair elusive. It is part of grief: no end without anger, without passing bills without loss. And do not just about 'things' subjective: it lost money, lost links, places, goods and articles, "he told Clarin a specialist in couples therapy.
But according to a study by the University of Essex, in this context women bear the brunt: their findings indicate that, in Britain, they are much more affected than men after divorce, especially when children are through. The man gets up to three times richer "and women" significantly poorer ", a situation which" lasts for years, "the researchers say.
The study showed that revenues grow separate male "immediately and continually" in the years following the divorce, and that women, by contrast, loses. "What makes the difference is paternity. Inequality has nothing to do with being male or female, but to be a father or mother," sosotiene. The main reason has to do with women leaving the labor market to become a mother. "The work of women in the home is not paid, thus their vulnerability and dependence in terms of revenue is high," they explain.
In Argentina there are no specific studies on the subject, but specialists in family law and gender match in diagnosis.
"In economic terms, the disadvantage for women to be separated is greater, and this is so even continue to occupy the matrimonial home with the children and the male should rent elsewhere or move in with friends," said Dr. Osvaldo Otemberg. "The perujicio increases if you have dependent children.'re Working, their resources are often limited to keep the family together, and if not employed, their situation may become desperate, while depends on how much the ex-husband. The remedies for claim does not meet are always late and inadequate, leaving women in a situation of permanent litigant.
For Mabel Bianco, of the Foundation for Studies and Research on Women (FEIM), "one of the biggest disadvantages faced by women after a separation has to do with lack of economic balance of the contribution made to the home, which is much and not translated into dollars. Furthermore, he says, women tend to lose much more in terms of personal space.
"In general, the middle class woman is most vulnerable because rearing and domestic work on it and fall more often have lower incomes because their work. But inequalities beyond the economic: the man is reinserted much faster in the circuit because it has more sentimental time for him and does not usually live with their children, thereby pareja.más way fast, "says psychologist Irene Loyácono, former president of the Sociedad Argentina de Terapia Familiar. Dr. Marisa Herrera, a researcher at the CONICET and UBA, agrees: "Gender inequality in economic terms and pay there with divorce and deepens. The woman is in a worse situation after a separation." However, he says, divorce records new realities begin to count, "foresee a greater presence of men in parenting: more agreements 'shared ownership', which recognize the right of children to have ties with both parents, and more comprehensive schemes of views, without rigidities of days and times. This increased presence of the father decompresses the weight involved for women to be primarily responsible for the children, and works so that both can pull his life.
