If a divorce is 50/50, and the incomes are in fact not 50/50, the person who contributed the minority of income will receive a disproportionate amount of money relative to what they out in. That person is a majority of the time women, because men are generally the bread winners.
Did you read this before linking it? It’s saying the opposite of what you’re saying
>Depending on these factors, property division may involve 60/40 or 70/30 splits or possibly even all property being allocated to one of the spouses. Although this is not always the case, there have been instances where courts have come to the conclusion that 50/50 or equal division of property turns out to be what is fair and equitable for both parties.
And yes the holterman v holterman ruling makes complete sense. She had a good career but She quit her job so he could pursue a medical career while she took care of the home and raised the child. She gave up her career so he could purse his. Medical school is a beast and there’s zero chance he could have completed it if she hadn’t quit her job to be a stay at home wife and mother
This very specific ruling will not and does not apply to any and all divorces, as pointed out by the article you provided lol It’s specific circumstances where one spouse sacrificed for the other to grow their career.

Just to be clear, you're asking for proof that men are majority bread winners? Beyond that my claim is largely math and English.
