[雙語(yǔ)家庭]當(dāng)家庭淪為戰(zhàn)場(chǎng)：捍衛(wèi)愛情還是財(cái)產(chǎn)
在愛進(jìn)行得如火如荼時(shí),你可能不會(huì)想到愛情與法律有多少搭介，但某天當(dāng)所有美好化為烏有 (annihilated)，你在乎的是曾經(jīng)的愛情，還是有過(guò)的財(cái)產(chǎn)呢？是不是開始用法律手段來(lái)減少損失呢？
Li Ming is bitter. First, her five-year marriage ended - she`s convinced her husband had affairs - and now she`s in a legal battle for the apartment they lived in.

"He`s reluctant to share a single tile with me," said Li, a Shanghai native. She believes she co-owns the apartment, which is registered in her husband`s name.
李敏是上海本地人，她說(shuō)：“他不愿意分給我一磚一瓦。”她認(rèn)為公寓雖然是用她丈夫的名字登記的，但是他倆共同所有的。
Under current divorce law, husbands and wives each get half of the marital assets unless one is proven to have acted in a way that violated the marriage
現(xiàn)行的離婚法規(guī)定，夫妻雙方對(duì)婚后財(cái)產(chǎn)各擁有一半份額，除非有證據(jù)證明一方有背叛婚姻的行為。
Now the Supreme Court is addressing pre-marriage assets, particularly property such as a house, in a draft interpretation of the Marriage Law.
目前，最高法院正在“關(guān)于適用《婚姻法》若干問(wèn)題的解釋”草案中對(duì)婚前財(cái)產(chǎn)，特別是住房的所有權(quán)，進(jìn)行解釋和規(guī)定。
The draft says that a person has sole ownership of a pre-marriage asset, including its appreciated value, unless his or her partner proves contribution.
草案中規(guī)定，夫妻一方的婚前財(cái)產(chǎn)及其增值收益屬于個(gè)人財(cái)產(chǎn)，除非另一方證明對(duì)此財(cái)產(chǎn)做出了貢獻(xiàn)。
Some experts complain that legislators are not doing enough to protect women. The fundamental difficulty for the wife lies in her inability to provide evidence of her husband`s misconduct.
一些專家認(rèn)為，立法者沒有采取足夠的措施保護(hù)婦女。妻子最根本的困難在于無(wú)法提供出丈夫不當(dāng)行為的證據(jù)。
In practice, lawyers said, asset division in most divorce cases is fair to women, sometimes favoring them. The key issue is whether husbands and wives should be treated the same in legislation about asset division.
律師說(shuō)，事實(shí)上大多數(shù)離婚案中的財(cái)產(chǎn)分配還是公平的，有時(shí)還對(duì)女方更有利。關(guān)鍵問(wèn)題是，在財(cái)產(chǎn)分割問(wèn)題的立法中丈妻是否該被一視同仁。

"It is not possible for me to prove his adultery," said Li Ming, who said that a year ago she accidentally saw her husband`s text messages inviting women to spend the night with him. "He denied everything. And how can I obtain evidence of him in bed with his lovers?"
李敏說(shuō)一年前她無(wú)意中看到丈夫的短信約人陪他過(guò)夜，她說(shuō)：“我沒法證明他通奸，他對(duì)所有的事情一概否認(rèn)，我怎么能找到他跟情人在床上的證據(jù)呢？”
A divorce lawyer said about 70 percent of couples divorce because of affairs. "Mostly it is the man.

Gender equity
男女平等
Sixty years after China`s first Marriage Law, which for the first time raised the issue of gender equality, the social status of women has improved dramatically.
