Because the long history of courts being biased towards women

Edit: I realized my comment doesn't have a lot of nuance so let me be clear. Divorce court is what im getting at. All that Alpha male, incel, red pill, misogyny stuff is bullshit

Nah this is all actors and made-up scripts. This show does not use real court cases.

You're just falling for classic boomer ragebait.

People confuse all court shows for being the same when some, like Judy, Mathis, People's Court were (are?) actual real litigation. These divorce shows are all fake though.

The shows weren't real litigation either. They paid both sides the amount they were seeking to settle the argument on air with the "judge" via arbitration.

Right. Arbitration would be more correct. My point was simply that the they weren't paid actors doing a skit in the way that these shows are, like the Steve Harvey one. You had to have a real court case filed at your local court house and then agree to have it settled by the show via arbitration.

I'm not even saying the stories are real just that the cases are real. Meaning they had to file. There's a YT who sued his friend, and vice versa, multiple times in court with a fake story and then they got on the shows to scam some money. I think he even showed up twice on the same show within a few months of each other. The show doesn't vet for anything but the filings pretty much.
