This week in...

...child support

• Who knew failing to pay child support could get you shot in the back by a police officer as you try to run away.
• I said it before, and I’ll say it again. See this film if you have the opportunity.
• A man pays child support for 16 years for a child that isn’t his.
  

...women

• For some reason, women just like to worry... and complain.
• We watch female sports if and when the athletes are hot, not for any other reason.

...dating, mating, and baboons

• It turns out, it’s pretty good to be No. 2.

...marriage

• Wife kills husband, confesses about it to man she met on OkCupid two years later:
  

  After only knowing her maybe two or three weeks, texting and phone calls, she confessed to me very remorsefully that she killed her husband

• Even I didn’t know marriage was this bad. Turns out a NJ rabbi and his wife wanted out so badly, they kidnapped a man and forced him to grant a religious divorce.
  
• If you’re a woman and you want a happy marriage, you'd better be in better shape than you’re husband. Duh.
  

...divorce, alimony

• Looks like the marriage of J Lo and Marc Anthony is over. This might be one of the rare divorce cases where the wife is worth more than the husband. Do you think she’ll end up paying alimony? Don’t hold your breath.
• The beginnings of a grassroots alimony reform effort in South Carolina?
• Florida alimony law is tightening up. Unfortunately alimony still exists, including permanent alimony.
• Congratulations to the British woman who just became the most expensive whore in the history of the UK.
  

...technology

• The designer of Grindr, the popular gay dating app, is about to launch a new project targeting straight people, called Amicus. Looks like it’s going to be more about making friends and less about casual sex than Grindr. Darn.
• A new NYC dating site called Cheek’d lets you give people a business card with a link to an online dating site where they can interact with you. Um, ok, but if I’m going to approach someone, why don’t I just talk to them right then and there?
  
• AreYouInterested?, the mobile dating iPhone app just got a bunch of upgrades. I checked it out, and it still sucks in my area.
  
• Another internet dating service is blurring the line between prostitution and dating... if there ever really was one.
