Got bugger all to do with gender however. That side of it is just misogynist rubbish imo. A famous woman is just as likely to get bottom feeders lurking around her too.
It's sexist (not you, Marsh) to think that there aren't specific issues for men when it comes to dating, relationships and moving in together. Men face very specific pressures that aren't usually an issue for women.

I do think that contracts should be the norm for more people, because there is no one-size-fits all relationship model anymore... people have even stranger financial arrangements now. There are people who also share bank accounts, credit cards and finances/living expenses just to make it easier... and if they're not married, then a contract should be drafted in place of a marital contract... because otherwise, if it does end up in court, that's very difficult to clear up and it becomes a case of hearsay and he said/she said... and if prejudices are to get involved in the courts or the court of public opinion, then it sort of defends against that from ever becoming much of a problem.

I also notice that if someone is rich, particularly a man, as soon as they announce a major break up or divorce from a long-term relationship, mags and tabloids are like... "Oh, she's gonna clean up house"...

If they have a pre-nup, it tends to nip in that kind of bull**** in the bud. So all the articles of "Oh, she's gonna clean him out..."... they can't get away with writing that, and it does give trolls at one less reason to target the woman on social media... which I think, as far as the extremeness of it,is a bigger problem for females.
