An amazing article that everyone should read:

I remember sitting in a restaurant at the Atlanta Airport, waiting for my connecting flight, and overhearing three middle-aged women talking at the next table.
They were all divorcees, and they were comparing how much loot they had extracted from their ex-husbands, as though it was a competition. They squealed with glee about the significant resources that they had gotten from their former mates. Nowhere in the discussion amongst these three was there any consideration of any adverse impact on those men. I was then shocked and dismayed that so many American women had become so blatantly money-hungry, heartless, and manipulative.
Yes, extortion technically is a crime, but through children and/or marriage, women can, and many do, legally engage in it. Consider the elements of the crime as defined by common law. Extortion is the: (1) present use of threat or force (2) of a future harm (3) to obtain money or resources (4) from another (5) with the intent to steal.
Regarding the use of (1) threat or force, consider false rape accusations. Without evidence or justification, a woman can unilaterally, and without any supporting evidence, have a man thrown in jail, can cause him to lose his job, and can cause him to lose his community reputation. Often used in retaliation for some perceived slight, such false rape accusations are a threat of force, a threat to get the power of the state to punish a man for doing what a woman doesn’t like. The very real possibility that a woman can do this, and get away with it, without being punished in any way, is an indication that she has the present power to threaten force. Thus, if they know what’s good for them, men had better not offend a woman, lest the woman call out the cops, and get these same men thrown into jail based on false rape accusations.
