The Michelle Triola Marvin 1977 palimony suit against star Lee Marvin appeared to exemplify two things: 1) The way so many people in contemporary American have abandoned a recorded marriage for the informality of cohabitation and 2) The inferiority of cohabitation to marriage.
Although Michelle Triola Marvin had changed her last name to that of the [...]

We can all painfully recall when back in 1998 New Yorker columnist Toni Morrison obsequiously called Bill Clinton our “first black president,” can’t we? I suppose it isn’t surprising that Morrison is now supporting Barack Obama since she is all about race, of course. It should be noted Obama is a tad [...]

One of my favorite Golden Oldies is “Midnight Confession.” The song’s narrator is a man passionately in love with a woman who is out of his reach: “a little gold ring you were on your hand makes me understand/There’s another before me, you’ll never be mine.”
A more recent popular song is “Mrs. Steven Rudy.” The [...]

Wouldn’t it be great to get someone else to pay your bills with no strings attached (the intended pun will be obvious shortly)? It would be even better if they paid or helped pay your child support, wouldn’t you agree? Here’s a little background on how we discovered this plan and why it isn’t just a [...]

The women of TEN live and breathe the problems with child support issues every day of our lives. Some as recipient custodial parents, others as the wives/significant others of male child support obligors, and [...]

Now comes news that George McGovern has called for Hillary Clinton to withdraw from the Democrat’s primary race. Pardon me for my raised eyebrow but how much of a fool would someone have to be to take campaign advice from the man who got slaughtered by Richard Nixon?

This polygamist thing confuses me — why would any rational man want more than one wife? And how is that anyone else’s business as long as the adults consent — as unlikely as that may seem? Our Man Flint had four women, and was revered, do we have our sensibilities screwed on right?

When the “news” [...]

Back in the 1970s, there was a song I especially liked listening to when it played on an oldies station. At the time, I considered myself a feminist but knew this song would be anathema to most feminists. I couldn’t help liking it anyway and I still like it.
The song is “Bobby’s Girl” which was [...]
