NOW Leader Tells Women to Divorce Their Husbands for Valentine's Day
'Take Their Money, Hit Them Where It Hurt$'

By Glenn Sacks

February 14, 2007, Glenn Sacks E-newsletter (USA)---Feminist family law attorney Sherri Donovan, National Counsel for the National Organization for Women, is urging women to greet their husbands this Valentine's Day with the words, "Happy Valentine's Day -- Let's Get Divorced!!"

In a recent press release, Donovan, of the New York City family law firm Sherri Donovan & Associates, P.C., enthuses that "Valentine's Day is the most popular time of year to seek a divorce attorney." Author of the new book Hit Him Where It Hurt$: The Take-No-Prisoners Guide to Divorce - Alimony, Custody, Child Support, Donovan says that in divorce women too often "play-nice" and end up "screwed."

Donovan asserts that "the average woman experiences a forty-five percent drop in her standard of living after divorce," even though this statistic--produced by Lenore Weitzman in the mid1980s--has been discredited for over a decade, with Weitzman herself admitting her error.

According to Donovan's website, Donovan can be reached by phone at (917) 723-1163 or at (212) 431-9076, by email at donovassoc@aol.com, or by fax at (212) 431-9596. Her press agent, Beth Gissinger, can be reached at (508) 427-6757.
