Reasons to never marry if you’re a man, #94: Spanish husband is ordered by a female judge to pay his ex-wife Ivana Moral £180,000 for 25 years of unpaid housework based on minimum wage throughout their marriage

/ Mike Buchanan
Our thanks to Mike P for this. Needless to say, it was the wife who filed for divorce. An extract:

The separated couple share two daughters and the ruling states that Ivana had spent almost all of her time looking after their family and working as a housewife during their marriage.

Ivana’s husband must also pay her a pension equivalent to £444 per month as well as £356 and £533 to his two daughters, who are now aged 20 and 14.

The mother-of-two, who wed her ex in 1995 before asking for a divorce in 2020, has said she is happy with the payout after years of hard work.

  1. The last sentence of the article “Ms Moral’s ex-husband, who only wanted to split their home and possessions following the divorce , is expected to appeal the decision.”

    So unpaid work should now be paid. Who pays me then for mowing my lawn and washing my car ?

  2. In this country my experience of the way income and assets and income is decided is pretty arbitrary. A guiding principle seems to be to ensure the woman gets to continue the lifestyle “she has become accustomed” to. Hence the eye watering awards to the ex wives of businessmen and celebrities. I’m sure many of these would have been relieved at a calculation based on the minimum wage ! I expect the feminists will howl because they always claim “homemaking” is a job like a “CEO” and make similarly wildly inflated calculations of the lost earnings of being a wife and mother. Using the minimum wage here might be a step in the direction of ending the England’s status as the Divorce Capital of the world as ex wives of Oligarchs and Saudi Princes somehow get their divorces in this country , and are maintained in luxury as a result. Frankly in a Gynocentric society pitching women’s house and childcare at minimum wage is damage limitation!
