Women do get compensated, they are pretty much a shoe in to win a divorce settlement.
I would laugh if that wasn't so sad. For better or worse, the idea that divorce is an automatic golden parachute for the woman is long dead and has been for quite some time, even in circumstances where the husband was philandering and/or abusive. Now it is somewhat true that women do tend to be favored in custody disputes, which in many cases means they get to take care of the kids while their biological father is late or totally non-compliant with the child support, but alimony is not at all the usual result of a divorce these days.
